Stroma Certification's Third Party Electrical scheme offers certification to electricians, allowing them to sign off electrical work carried out by a third party. As one of the few certification bodies to offer Third Party certification, we provide our electrician members the opportunity to provide a service which differentiates your business from other electrical contractors.

Third Party Certification for electrical work was approved by DCLG in 2013. As an approved provider of the scheme, Stroma Certification certifies our members to act as a third party certifier. It is a legal requirement for domestic electrical installations to be carried out in compliance with Part P of the Building Regulations. Whilst many electricians are certified members of a Competent Person for Part P work, Third Party Electrical Certification allows your business to offer deliver a more diverse service than some of your competitors.

Responsibilities of a Third Party Inspector

In order to carry out a third party inspection in a compliant manner, you must be in attendance to witness the work done at the 1st fix and 2nd fix stages of the installation. You must have witnessed the installation work and have confidence that it is both safe and installed to the required standard. You must then complete a Stroma Third Party Certificate and send this to Stroma Certification prior to making a third party notification.
