NICEIC acts as the electrical contracting industry’s independent voluntary regulatory body for electrical installation and safety matters throughout the UK. It maintains and publishes registers of electrical contractors that have been assessed against Scheme requirements, including the national electrical safety standard BS 7671, the IEE Wiring Regulations

Are you confident that your home conforms to electrical safety standards?
It is not just older installations that need to be checked because many properties change owners frequently and can be subject to DIY alterations, or work carried out by non-competent persons. Have you considered the electrical safety of the property that you are moving to?

Typically properties over 20 years old may have inadequate earthing, bonding or circuit protection, this together with loose connections, are probably the most common problems found during inspections. If left unattended they could lead to fire or electric shock.
