Product Information

If an SPD (Surge Protection Device) is installed you may like to include the SPD notice which details what the SPD does and advises the householder to regularly check the status indicator of the SPD. Don't worry though, you'll be sent straight back to the community after completing the registration. Periodic Inspection and test labels have been designed to record the date of the last inspection and the recommended date for the next one which is a requirement of Regulation 514-12-02. However, there are still some installations where the old-style labelling will be required, such as a dual supply installation, for example where solar is included. IMPORTANT: The Print Instructions Page should only be used to tell us information that is required to be printed onto your labels.

Likewise, further helping with time saving and ease, the test results page of the EIC has been expanded from the previous one page to now incorporate two separate pages covering circuit details and test results. Please include what you were doing when this page came up and the Cloudflare Ray ID found at the bottom of this page. For health and safety purposes, this allows people of trade to protect their clients and their place of work. As part of our commitment to support electricians navigate the new regulatory landscape, in which new rules apply to surge protection and the use of arc fault detection devices, we’ll be on hand to provide guidance and technical support across all areas impacted by the changes implemented from September 2022. Caution labels have been designed for alterations or additions to electrical installations where both wiring colours are used a warning notice must be fixed at the distribution board or consumer unit.Electrical labels or notices on a consumer unit could include an RCD test notice, mixed wiring colours, next inspection labels, no cpc to lighting circuits warning notice amongst many others, in many cases too many to actually fit on the consumer unit. Caution labels have been designed for alterations or additions to electrical installations where both wiring colours are used - a warning notice must be fixed at the distribution board or consumer unit. Consenting to these technologies will allow us to process data such as browsing behavior or unique IDs on this site.

These labels, each of which has a unique serial number, can for example be fixed across the 'back plate' and the 'front cover' of a consumer unit leaving free access to operate the circuit-breakers. Now that Amendment 2 of the 18th Edition has been published, electrical contractors are getting to grips with the adjustments the new regulations have outlined. The important area of certificate documentation, identification labelling and testing has been highlighted in the new regulations, with several new recommendations outlined. We have amended our current identification pack that is part of the consumer unit so the slightly revised labelling text can be provided to homeowners alongside the EIC. Warning labels have been designed to warn users against replacing insulated lighting fittings or switches with metal lighting fittings or switches.

The amount of required warning labels, notices and stickers has increased in recent years resulting in consumer units being plastered in a plenitude of unsightly labels and stickers, which understandably the householder may not like if the consumer unit is in a prominent position in their home, this can look unsightly, messy and unprofessional. Our Mixed Wiring Warning Labels come in a convenient pack of 25, making it easy to label multiple systems and devices. In such cases, contractors can simply include the guidance labelling alongside the Electrical Installation Certificate (EIC) documentation which proves the homeowner has been alerted to, and provided with, the necessary information covered by the notices previously applied to the cover of the consumer unit. One change is the removal of the requirement to apply identification labelling notices to the exterior of domestic consumer units once installation has been completed. With manufacturers working hard to provide consumer units that look good and offer flush finishes and visually pleasing finishes, the use of unattractive labelling stickers post-installation has often compromised the aesthetics of the job.

This can now be simplified with our new A4 DB notice included with our Electrical Tools and Reference App.

This chart is laminated and stuck to the face of the cu, so that tenants, owners and future inspecting sparks can see at an instant what is what, even if the EIC isn't available. The changes to documentation, identification, and certification brought about by the 2nd Amendment are practical enhancements that will both continue to drive safety standards but also assist the electrical contractor when it comes to operating as efficiently and time effectively as possible.
