Get Free QuotesWhat to Look for When Hiring an Electrician in Achavar
Choosing a qualified, trustworthy electrician is essential — electrical work done incorrectly can be extremely dangerous and costly to rectify. The most important thing to check is registration with a government-authorised Competent Person Scheme: NICEIC, NAPIT, SELECT (in Scotland), or the ECA. Registration with one of these bodies confirms the electrician is qualified to carry out and self-certify notifiable work under Part P of the Building Regulations.
Beyond credentials, look for evidence of public liability insurance, a clear written quote before work begins, and confirmation of what certification will be provided on completion. An Electrical Installation Certificate (EIC) or Minor Electrical Installation Works Certificate (MEIWC) should be issued for notifiable work — if an electrician is reluctant to provide this, that is a serious red flag.
Our site does this groundwork for you, listing only electricians who have met our vetting requirements so you can focus on finding the right fit for your job.
Industry Accreditations — NICEIC, NAPIT, SELECT & ECA
- NICEIC: The National Inspection Council for Electrical Installation Contracting is one of the UK's leading Competent Person Scheme operators. NICEIC-registered contractors are assessed for technical competence and can self-certify their work as Part P compliant.
- NAPIT: The National Association of Professional Inspectors and Testers is another government-authorised scheme. NAPIT-registered electricians are assessed to the same BS 7671 standard.
- SELECT: The trade association for the electrotechnical industry in Scotland. SELECT membership is the Scottish equivalent of NICEIC or NAPIT membership for Part P purposes.
- ECA: The Electrical Contractors' Association represents businesses that design, install, and maintain electrical systems to the highest standards.
Where electricians in our Achavar network hold these accreditations, this is clearly noted on their profile.

Part P Compliance Costs — What You Need to Budget For
Notifiable electrical work in England and Wales must comply with Part P of the Building Regulations. An electrician who is a member of a government-authorised Competent Person Scheme (such as NICEIC or NAPIT) can self-certify this work — meaning they notify the scheme, which then notifies the local authority on your behalf and issues a completion certificate. This service is typically included in the electrician's charge, but it is worth confirming this when reviewing quotes.
If you use an electrician who is not scheme-registered, you would need to apply for building control approval separately before work begins — an additional cost and administrative burden. The appropriate electrical certificate (an EIC or MEIWC) must be issued on completion of all notifiable work regardless of the route taken.
Ensure any quote you receive for notifiable electrical work in Achavar explicitly includes certification costs and confirms the electrician's scheme registration.
