Contractor
How to register

The process of approval follows four simple steps: 

• Application for approval is made by the contractor
• NICEIC undertake a preliminary assessment visit to ensure that the contractor is fully prepared for assessment
• NICEIC performs a full assessment of the contractor’s competence
• Approval is granted by NICEIC and maintained by the contractor

NICEIC will review the application and appoint an Area Engineer to conduct the onsite assessment to assess competence of the contractor. Contractors will need to demonstrate their competence by:

• employing and supporting a Principal Duty Holder and Qualified Supervisor
• maintaining a record of all electrical installation work
• undergoing on-site assessment of recent installation installations

If, for any reason, the contractor does not meet the Scheme requirements, NICEIC will provide full guidance to enable them to achieve compliance and gain approval.

Once approval is achieved, it is maintained through a programme of annual assessment visits.
