Discuss Can I sign-off work? in the Periodic Inspection Reporting & Certification area at ElectriciansForums.net
James pretty much covered it.Can any qualified electrician sign off EICR and EIR.
can you do this without being part of on of the electrical associations?
Also I am in Scotland incase any differences apply
Thanks
Does this only apply for the installation certificates?In Scotland you need to be either and Approved electrician with NICEIC or SELECT or be SJIB and attach proof of your qualifications with the EIC to Building Control
NICEIC's domestic installer scheme doesn't cover EICRs (in England, but I'm assuming it's the same in Scotland). Though that doesn't mean you can't do them - just not on NICEIC paperwork.Does this only apply for the installation certificates?
Select seem to have it so that you need to be an approved electrician so you can then become an approved certifier and you must be an approved certifier to sign off both EICR or EIC.
Does anyone know if the NICEIC domestic installer
1. Needs to be approved?
2. Can sign off EICR's
And thanks for all replies so far much appreciated ?
There is no such third rate ‘system’ in Scotland as a DI. You’re eithey qualified and competent or you aren’tDoes this only apply for the installation certificates?

It also gives average price at £155 for an EICR. But I have hunted for some thing saying you must have x qualification and have failed.12.10Carrying out an inspection of electrical installations is a complex task that requires an extra level of qualification and competence achieved beyond the standard 4-year vocational route commonly followed by qualified inspectors and testers. Therefore, Government will develop, with industry experts, new guidance for landlords stipulating who can carry out the mandatory electrical installation checks.
