    If you are not employed by the electrical contractor , then yes it is illegal.
    The certificate being issue is invalid.

    Any registered contractor writing out COC's for you can't really pretend to be an electrical contractor as he is basically taking work away from himself by supporting pirate contractors

    If you want to be an electrical contractor , register and comply to all the rules, regulations, insurance and tax laws that all contractors have to do.

    If you don't register you are a handyman and cannot carry out electrical work as per OHSA
