The Domestic Electrical Installation Certificate
One of the advantages of using an NICEIC Approved Contractor is that on completion
of a new installation or changes to an existing installation, the contractor
is required to issue certification.
There are five main certificate and report forms associated with electrical
installations that conform to BS 7671:
The Electrical Installation Certificate
provides written confirmation that the electrical installation work to which
it relates has been designed, constructed, and inspected and tested in accordance
with BS 7671.

The Domestic Electrical Installation Certificate
is intended only for a single dwelling (single phase installations up to 100
Amps, with 12 circuits or less). It includes all the items in the Electrical
Installation Certificate that are relevant to a typical domestic installation.
Domestic installations with more than 12 circuits will need to be certificated
with the full Electrical Installation Certificate.

The Minor Electrical Installation Works Certificate
is intended to be used only where a minor alteration or addition has been made
to an existing installation, which does not involve the provision of a new circuit.

is used to report on the safety condition of an existing installation. It should
not be used to certify new installation work or work carried out by others.
