Our new website brings together trusted electrical safety information, practical tools, expert guidance, and industry resources in a single destination for consumers and those involved in public safety work.
An upgraded Find an Electrician Tool uses live data feeds from five recognised electrical industry certification bodies (NICEIC, MCS, Flexi-Orb, SELECT and Blue Flame Certification) to help you find local, registered, and competent electricians with confidence.
The site also has an interactive Units Calculator, helping you better understand your electrical consumption and energy use through a simple, easy-to-use tool.
A new Resources for Electricians section is an extensive library of free technical guidance and training materials, developed in collaboration with more than 15 leading electrical industry organisations.
The resource hub includes Best Practice Guides covering a wide range of electrical installation topics, guidance produced by the Wiring Regulations Advisory Group, the Amendment 4 Pocket Guide, and support for apprentices via access to the comprehensive Apprentice Channel of Excellence platform of training videos.
Accessibility, translation, and user testing
The website has also been designed with accessibility at its heart. An integrated accessibility toolbar enables users to customise their browsing experience, whilst a translation tool helps make vital electrical safety information available to a wider audience.
The new website was shaped by two rounds of user testing involving 28 participants, including members of the public, electricians and accessibility testers.
Their feedback helped inform the site’s structure, design, navigation and content, ensuring vital electrical safety information and resources are easy to find, understand and accessible for all users.
