Electrical Installations Certification Services Company in UAE | Dubai

Carelabs is authorized provider of Electrical Installation’s Study, Analysis, Inspection, and Certification services in UAE, and offer electrical installations certification services.

Electrical installation certificate is something you should have every time some work done which includes extending a circuit or new surface or even a few orders. What is the benefit of getting an installation certificate? It ensures that the work just completed is compliant and secure and assures that it is safe to use. Whether you are a manufacturer or operator, you need to ensure cost-effective and safe use of your electrical installations and power plants.

The Electrical Installations Certificate will indicate whether the electrical work that has been carried out is:

• New – where the whole installation has been installed as new, if a complete rewire has been carried out.
• Addition – applies if an existing installation has been modified by adding one or more new circuits.
• Alteration – applies where one or more existing circuits have been modified or extended (for example to add a socket), or items such as a consumer unit (fuse box) and switching equipment have been replaced.

An Electrical Installation Certificate must be issued for all new electrical installations. It may also be required for an alteration or addition to the installation – depending upon whether or not a new circuit has been installed. Where an alteration or addition is carried out but does not include a new circuit, a MEIWC or an EIC may be used.

The Electrical Installation Certificate will need to be issued any time that there is:

• A newly installed installation
• When any new single circuit or multiple circuits are being added to any installation that already exists.
• When there is any change of distribution board (consumer unit)
• When there has been any alteration to a circuit and that alteration has required a change to the protective device.
• Following initial verification, and after a full inspection and testing procedures have been undertaken, the Electrical Installation Certificate has to be completed. This is something that is required by law.

Carelabs Electrical Installation Certification Process

Every time an Electrical Contractor completes a new electrical installation, extension, or modification to an existing installation he/she is obliged to test and certify that the installation complies with current standards. These standards are set by the Electro Technical Council of Ireland (ETCI). A validated Electrical Completion Certificate, where applicable, must be sent to ESB Networks by the electrical contractor’s regulatory body before any connection work can commence. Every customer should receive a copy of an Electrical Completion Certificate whenever electrical work is completed. Make sure you keep your copy of the certificate. This requirement helps to ensure your safety. In order to verify that it complies with the relevant requirements of the standard. With self-certification, there is an absolute requirement for full inspection and testing procedures. This chapter explains the minimum verification procedures that are required by Health and Safety legislation and BS 7671. The Wiring Regulations require that every installation must be inspected and tested, both during erection and before being put into service. The persons signing certification take responsibility for all work, hidden and obvious. A signatory on an Electrical installation certificate (EIC) can only be responsible for work for which there is a contractual arrangement. Inspection and testing may be carried out by a specialized operator, or the installer, or perhaps the design consultant.

Who can apply for Electrical Installation Certification?

Property owners, electrical contractors and licensed wiremen can apply to have their electrical work inspected and certified.

Carelabs Provide Certificates after testing for faults like:

• If any of your electrical circuits or equipment are overloaded.
• If any potential electric shock risks and fire hazards are present If any defective electrical work is present
• If any lack of earthing or bonding is present
• Tests are also carried out on wiring and fixed electrical equipment to check that they are safe. A schedule of circuits is also provided, which is invaluable for a property
• The suitability of the switchgear and controlgear. For example, an old fusebox with a wooden back, cast-iron switches, or a mixture of both will need replacing
• The serviceability of switches, sockets and lighting fittings. Items that may need replacing include: older round-pin sockets, round light switches, cables with fabric coating hanging from ceiling roses to light fittings, black switches and sockets mounted in skirting boards
• The type of wiring system and its condition. For example, cables coated in black rubber were phased out in the 1960s. Likewise cables coated in lead or fabric is even older a.
