Electrical Installation Certificate (EIC)

What is an EIC?

Whether you’re upgrading your fuseboard, adding new sockets, or wiring an extension. Electrical improvements demand a professional approach—and legally recognised certification.  Archer Dean Electrical Contractors provide Electrical Installation Certificate (EIC) testing for homeowners,  landlords and businesses throughout North Ayrshire.

Why do I need an EIC?

An Electrical Installation Certificate (EIC) confirms that new electrical work — such as a rewire, consumer unit upgrade, or new build installation — meets the latest BS 7671 wiring regulations.  It’s essential proof that your electrics are safe, compliant, and ready to use.

Every new electrical installation or significant alteration must be signed off by a certified electrician under Scottish law. The EIC serves as proof your electrics are safely installed, meeting BS 7671 requirements. This is crucial for building control, insurance, and when selling your home.

When Do You Need an EIC?

• New builds or property extensions
• Full or partial rewiring projects
• Consumer unit (fuseboard) replacements
• Major upgrades to fixed electrical installations

Why It Matters

An EIC protects you by:

• Demonstrating compliance with safety standards
