Qualified? Check the register!
9th March 2021
If you’re about to undertake a domestic electrical project, to protect you, your family and your home, it is essential you use a qualified electrician.
You should get the right specialist contractor that is suited to your project, so you can be confident that they are trained to deliver a safe installation. It’s easy to do, just check their governing body’s register, like ours, with ELECSA.
Ask your electrician for their registration number and who they’re approved with. Sometimes you can find out whether they’re registered by searching their company name.
Here’s a list of the UK Government’s approved schemes:
England and Wales: NICEIC, Elecsa, Napit, Blue Flame Certification, Storma Certification
Northern Ireland: NICEIC, Napit, ECA
Why choose a registered electrician? Here’s our top 5 reasons:
- They’re insured!
- They are regularly assessed so you have total confidence that they’re the right fit for the job.
- They’re regulated, which means they will always work to the BS7671 safety standard
- They have the skills and experience to carry out works to high standards
- They’re knowledgeable about the dangers electricity can create so will take all necessary precautions.
