About Our Electrician Services Service in Southwold
What actually happens when an electrician turns up.
On the phone we ask what the property is, roughly how old the wiring is, what the consumer unit (fuse box) looks like, and whether the circuit is dead or tripping. Those answers decide what goes on the van. The price is confirmed before we come out.
On arrival, before anything is touched, the circuit is isolated and proved dead with an approved voltage indicator and a proving unit, then locked off with a warning notice on the board. The earthing arrangement and the main protective bonding get checked early, because they change what is safe to do next.
What gets left behind depends on the job. An Electrical Installation Certificate covers a new installation or a new circuit. A Minor Electrical Installation Works Certificate covers an alteration to one existing circuit, and cannot be used for a consumer unit change. An Electrical Installation Condition Report is an inspection of what is already there. Notifiable work also gets a Building Regulations compliance certificate through the scheme within 30 days.
There is no electrician's licence in the UK. We are NAPIT registered under membership number 69983 and qualified to BS 7671.

Frequently Asked Questions
What should I have ready when I ring?
Four things get you a price on the call: what the property is, roughly how old the wiring is, what the consumer unit looks like (rewireable fuses, plastic board, or a metal board with breakers), and whether the circuit is dead or keeps tripping. A photo of the board helps more than anything else.
How do I check an electrician is genuine?
Ask which competent person scheme they are registered with and what scope that registration covers, then check the register. Full scope electrical members appear on the Registered Competent Person Electrical register. Ask what certificate you will get at the end. Anyone who cannot name the document they will issue is worth avoiding.
Will the power be off while you work?
The circuit being worked on, yes. Safe isolation is not optional: the circuit is switched off, proved dead with an approved voltage indicator and a proving unit, then locked off. A consumer unit change means the whole property is off for most of a working day. Adding a socket usually only takes out one circuit.
Which certificate will I get?
An Electrical Installation Certificate for a new installation or a new circuit, including a consumer unit change. A Minor Electrical Installation Works Certificate for an addition or alteration to a single existing circuit, such as an extra socket. An Electrical Installation Condition Report if we are inspecting rather than installing. Notifiable work also produces a Building Regulations compliance certificate, issued through the scheme rather than by us, within 30 days.
