What is a NICEIC Registered Electrician?
NICEIC is the leading governing body for the electrical industry in the UK and is approved by the government to offer a Competent Person Scheme. Competent Person Schemes allow approved members to self-certify their work for building control purposes. To become a NICEIC registered electrician, an electrician must demonstrate that they are qualified and competent, compliant with regulations, and have adequate insurance in place in case of any problems. The assessment process is rigorous and is carried out at regular intervals to ensure continued excellence. We have just completed our regular assessment and are happy to report that we passed with flying colours, retaining our position as your local NICEIC registered electrician in Drighlington.
Why Choose a NICEIC Registered Electrician?
Now you know what NICEIC registration means you are probably wondering what difference that makes to you when choosing an electrician to work in your Drighlington home. Let’s look at the key points:
- Qualified: To be NICEIC registered an electrician must be qualified. Aren’t all electricians qualified I hear you ask? Unfortunately not. Many people who advertise as electricians are in fact unqualified. To ensure that the work in your Drighlington home is carried out safely and correctly, always choose a NICEIC registered electrician.
- Competent: As we mentioned above, part of the process of becoming a NICEIC registered electrician involves an in depth assessment of an electricians technical competence. By choosing a NICEIC registered electrician in Drighlington you can rest assured that their work has been checked by a qualified assessor to be of the highest standards.
- Compliant: Compliance with regulations is a key factor in choosing a NICEIC registered electrician. Electrical regulations – and the technology they relate to -change rapidly, and it is vital that your electrician is up to date on these changes. Electrical regulations are in place to keep you, your family and your Drighlington home safe. Failure to comply with regulations can result in danger to you and can mean expensive remedial work is needed later.
- Fully Insured: Nobody likes to consider the possibility that things could go wrong with the work they undertake, and whilst it is rare, it can happen. All NICEIC registered electricians will be fully insured giving you total peace of mind.
- Self-Certified Work: The majority of electrical works in a home will need to be signed off with your local council building control office and you will need a certificate for the works. This is a legal requirement, and you can be required to have the work redone if this requirement is not met. You may also be fined. A NICEIC registered electrician is able to self-certify their work, issue you with the relevant certification and notify building control.
