Benefits of using a Competent Registered Electrician
Using an electrician registered with a Government-approved scheme (England and Wales) to undertake electrical installation work in your home provides you with the assurance that:
They work to the British Standard for electrical safety (BS 7671)
They meet strict entry requirements, which take account of qualifications, skills, knowledge, experience and insurance policies
Their work is regularly assessed by a Government-approved Scheme Operator to ensure their ongoing competence and that it meets the correct standards
They will give you a BS7671 certificate to confirm that their work has been designed, inspected and tested in line with the BS7671 electrical safety standard. If the work is notifiable, they will also arrange a Building Regulations Compliance Certificate to confirm compliance with Building Regulations, which should be issued to you by their Scheme Operator within 30 days of the completion of the installation.
They are permitted to self-certify their work against the Building Regulations, saving you the need to notify the work with your Local Authority Building Control department
They have valid insurance policies in place, including Public Liability Insurance
All Government-approved scheme operators have a complaints procedure, which means they will investigate complaints about registered electricians who have not complied with technical standards
They have been authorised by Government to self-certify that their work is compliant with Building Regulations.
