Benefits of using an NICEIC-registered Contractor
NICEIC has been assessing the technical competence of electricians for over 50 years. Their aim is to protect everyone who uses electricity from unsafe electrical installations anywhere. To achieve this, they maintain a register of qualified, competent electricians. Once contractors become registered with NICEIC, they are re-assessed on a regular basis to ensure high standards.
The main benefits of using a contractor registered by NICEIC include:
Safety and
Competence
As electricians registered by NICEIC we are assessed on a regular basis to ensure that we are competent and capable of meeting the relevant technical and safety standards, codes of practice and rules of the Schemes they are registered to.
Compliance with
Building Regulations
As contractors registered to NICEIC Building Regulations Schemes in England and Wales we are authorised to self-certify our work to the Local Building Control Body. This saves you both time and money when undertaking work that requires notification under the Building Regulations.
Landlord or House Purchase inspections
We carry out inspections to determine the electrical safety of an installation and can give costs to bring the installation up to the required standard.
Electrical Installation and Minor Works Certificates
Any electrician installing a new electrical installation (including a single circuit), altering, extending or adapting an existing circuit should issue the client with electrical installation certificate or minor electrical installation works certificate to confirm the work complies with the requirements of BS 7671:2008
EICR
Electrical Installation Condition Report - formerly called PIR. This is a report to establish the overall condition of all the electrics in a building, stating whether it is satisfactory for continued use, detailing any work that might need to be done.
Fire Alarm and Emergency Lighting Certificates
For commercial and industrial works as well as the relevant electrical installation certificates we will, where appropriate, supply fire alarm and emergency lighting certificates.
Part P
The specific section of the Building Regulations for England and Wales that relates to electrical installations in domestic properties. Part P provides safety regulations to protect householders, and requires most domestic electrical work to be carried out by government-registered electricians, or to be inspected by Building Control officers.
PAT - Portable Appliance Testing
Inspection and testing of electrical equipment including portable appliances, moveable equipment, hand held appliances, stationary equipment, fixed equipment/appliances, IT equipment and extension leads.
