C-STR-Elecsa REV Aug 2011 V1
The Electrical Installation Certificate is to be used only for the initial certification of a new
installation or for an addition or alteration to an existing installation where new circuits have
been introduced.
It is not to be used for a Periodic Inspection, for which an Electrical Installation Condition Report
form should be used. For an addition or alteration which does not extend to the introduction of
new circuits, a Minor Electrical Installation Works Certificate may be used.
The original Certificate is to be given to the person ordering the work (Regulation 632.1). A
duplicate should be retained by the contractor.
This Certificate is only valid if accompanied by the Schedule of Inspections and the Schedule(s)
of Test Results.
The signatures appended are those of the persons authorised by the companies executing the
work of design, construction and inspection and testing respectively. A signatory authorised to
certify more than one category of work should sign in each of the appropriate places.
The time interval recommended before the first periodic inspection must be inserted (see IET
Guidance Note 3 for guidance).
The page numbers for each of the Schedules of Test Results should be indicated, together
with the total number of sheets involved.
The maximum prospective value of fault current (Ipf) recorded should be the greater of either
the prospective value of short-circuit current or the prospective value of earth fault current.
The proposed date for the next inspection should take into consideration the frequency and
quality of maintenance that the installation can reasonably be expected to receive during
its intended life and the period should be agreed between the designer, installer and other
relevant parties.
