On the recommendation of BRAC (the Building Regulations Advisory Committee), the Government has approved schemes to be operated by:
- BRE Certification Limited,
- BSI - British Standards Institution,
- ELECSA Limited,
- NAPIT Certification Ltd, and
- NICEIC Certification Services Limited.
These schemes are aimed at those carrying out electrical installation work as the primary activity of their business. Links to these providers can be found in the relevant link group on the top-right right of this page.
BRAC are continuing to consider a number of applications for schemes, defined competence self-certification schemes, aimed at those who carry out installation work only as an adjunct to or in connection with the primary activity of their business. The Committee hopes to be able to make recommendations for approval on these shortly.
