What are the minimum qualifications for an electrician to be able to provide Electrical Installation Certificate (EIC) or a Minor Electrical Installation Works (MEIW) Certificate in Commercial Premises

Douglas MacLachlan

If a company is looking to sub contract out work to install commercial catering equipment (single and 3phase) and the installations are highly likely to require appliances to be hard wired to a fixed socket and/or have to install an RCD, what are the minimum qualifications for an electrician to be able to provide Electrical Installation Certificate or a Minor Electrical Installation Works Certificates in Commercial Premises?

I have seen qualifications showing city of guilds level 3 award in Requirements For Electrical Installations (doesn't say diploma) with 3 years experience but I'm not sure if these individuals can issue an EIC or MEIW?

Any guidance greatly accepted.

Many thanks

    It might also be argued that filling in the paperwork doesn't need any particular skills at all - it's underlying work (design, installation, I&T) that requires the competence. Anyone doing the real work should be capable of putting their name to it.
