electrical installation test certificate template

Oct 02, 2006 7 Replies

I have just found out, that after working out how to rewire the house and fit a new CU, I now have to test it. Not only that, I have to send in a test report for the Inspectors to view (plus one copy for the document dossier).



So, is there any kind person out there who is able to send me an electronic version of a blank test certificate template - or something similar, which would satisfy the building inspectors etc?



Thanks for your help.



What are you going to do with the blank certificate once you've got it? What really matters is not the certificate, but the fact that the work has been tested by a suitably equipped person who is competent to do so.

I have all the gear - it's for my work on Zone 0 and Zone 1 hazardous area electrical installations. Meters, Scopes, Meg's, LCR bridges etc. etc. etc.

I will check the wiring out and fill in the forms myself - the certificate is just to save me from having to design one myself, and the inspector would like some continuity I'm sure.

Thanks,

Ren.

If you have all the test equipment and know how to use it then I am surprised you don't know where to get the forms from. A selection are available from the IET (formerly IEE) web site.

The BS7671 forms for filling in by hand and a pdf forms template for computer entry are on the IET website

Mr Hansen,

Thanks - my line is in EEx 'e', EEx 'i' and EEx 'd' systems for process plants - this house stuff is all new to me, but logical.

I think you can download them from either the NICEIC or IEE (as was) website.

You can get packs of 10 quite cheaply from ebay or elec wholesalers.

I have on in MS Publisher (probably Pub 97) and PDF format; if anyone wants it it's here:

and I'll try and email you directly.

(I think I copied a NICEIC one as it says: The signatory to the Construction certificate is required to be enrolled with NICEIC.)
