Electrical Certificate
of Compliance

Every homeowner needs to have an electrical certificate of compliance (COC certificate) issued at his home in the event of the house being sold. This certificate ensures that the electrical wiring of the home is in good working order. This certificate can only be authorized and signed off by a qualified electrician with a wireman’s licence. The registration of the property onto the new owner’s name cannot be processed successfully without the certificate, and by law, is not allowed. It is also an option to submit this certificate to your insurance company. BHC Electrical comes to your home to do a complete inspection of the entire electrical installation on the house, after which a quotation to repair any faults to a standard will be given.

Other than the COC being proof that the electrical installation is safe, the law requires a homeowner to be in possession of an Electrical COC, as do insurance companies. If a property incurs any damage due to an electrical fault, the insurance company will require the owner to provide them with a valid electrical certificate. Failure to produce the document could result in the insurance company not paying the claim.
