We do mainly industrial and commercial work with a small bit of (landlord) residential.
After some recent negative comments from potential customers regarding NICEIC electricians I was thinking of jumping ship to ECA or Napit.
OK I know ECA are now the same as NIC but there name doesn't seem...
Westarted an electrical contracting company and the end of 2017 our test of the business. It went well and we used 2 electricians who are NAPIT approved.
Now this year we are going for company certification via NAPIT, potentially, but this means that everyone who works for us as a contractor...

I am really struggling with the section 7 of the Napit Installation Cert.

I am currently dealing with napit on behalf of a customer.

The vast...
Hi all, I will be doing a kitchen rewire in a domestic house which i want to use for my Napit inspection. Existing consumer unit has not enough spare ways for the new circuits to be installed for the new kitchen and its a bit untidy. So i will be adding an additional 10 way consumer unit with...
Thinking of getting MCS certified?
The Microgeneration Certification Scheme aka MCS have now published their own QMS, so i guess if you follow it you should be compliant. (well maybe !)
