This guide has been designed to help contractors carrying out
periodic inspection and testing. It gives advice on the possible
coding in line with BS 7671:2018 of a range of observations that
can be encountered in an existing electrical installation.

With an industry emphasis on accurate Electrical Installation
Condition Reports (EICRs), it is essential that inspectors
Code their observations in an understandable and quantifiable manner.

To augment any inspection and testing, this guide also discusses
guidance and information covering risk assessments, the frequency
of inspections, for use by both inspectors and Clients, and safe
isolation procedures in domestic and commercial/industrial environments.

With NAPIT’s constant drive to improve standards and working practices throughout the
electrical industry, we felt compelled to look at how electrical installations are designed,
installed and maintained, taking account of any legislation that may also affect them.

Good and proper solutions to the everyday problems’ electricians encounter on-site, is of
paramount importance to the technical authors at NAPIT. With this in mind, NAPIT has
produced an On-site Solutions book.

This On-site Solutions book is specifically designed to help electricians understand and
overcome the day to day issues they encounter. It is a crucial toolbox document that should
be available at all times.
