Are your electricians qualified?
When awarding contracts for electrical work, you might have checked the company has the necessary certification or competent persons registrations, but how do you know if the person carrying out the electrical work is qualified?
Just because a contractor is registered as a company with industry organisations, it doesn’t mean that the person turning up to do the work on your property has the industry approved skills and qualifications.
Electrotechnical Certification Scheme
The Electrotechnical Certification Scheme is the registration scheme for the electrical industry run by the Joint Industry Board and affiliated to CSCS. If an electrician holds an ECS gold card you know they are qualified to the industry recognised standard.
Ask for proof of electricians’ qualifications – ask to see their ECS registration.

The Electrotechnical Certification Scheme is administered in England, Northern Ireland and Wales by the Joint Industry Board for the Electrical Contracting Industry, and in Scotland by the Scottish Joint Industry Board.
