NICEIC Approved Contractor

NICEIC is one of the UK’s leading electrical regulatory bodies. NICEIC accreditations must be updated every 12 months through an annual assessment to ensure all electricians adhere to the British Standard BS 7671 and demonstrate stringent standards of competency and ethical practice. At Centralec Electrical, we are a NICEIC-approved contractor, meaning we exclusively work with electricians who are NICEIC Part P-approved domestic installers.

How we comply with the NICEIC

Part P of the Building Regulations is an electrical safety law introduced by the government to improve compliance and safety in homes and domestic properties. This law specifies the legal requirement for most types of electrical work to be carried out by a registered electrician.

You can visit the NICEIC website to see Centralec Electrical registration status.
