Competence, certification and the paperwork that makes an installation legal
Electrical work is one of the most tightly regulated trades a public buyer procures, and competence is evidenced at two levels. The enterprise holds registration with a recognised body that audits its work; the individuals hold qualifications for the specific activity, including separate authorisation for high-voltage work, testing and inspection. Buyers verify both, and they verify the scope of the registration, because a contractor registered for domestic work is not thereby competent for a substation.
The deliverable that closes the job is a certificate, not a completed installation. Installation certificates, test results for continuity, insulation resistance, earth fault loop impedance and residual current device operation, and as-installed drawings and schedules are required before handover and are the evidence the buyer holds for its own statutory duties. Periodic inspection and testing on a defined cycle is a separate recurring requirement that is often let in the same contract and priced per circuit or per distribution board.
Work in occupied buildings is governed by isolation rather than by programme. Live working is normally prohibited, so the job depends on planned shutdowns agreed with the occupier, often at night or at weekends, under a permit to work with lock-off and proving procedures. Where standby generation, uninterruptible supplies or life safety systems are involved, the sequence of isolation is designed rather than improvised. Bidders who price the installation and not the access windows consistently underestimate these contracts, and buyers who do not specify the windows receive prices that assume the worst.
This section describes how this category is bought generally, across the public buyers that publish it. The figures elsewhere on this page are measured for this market alone.

A quarter of them allowed 32 days or fewer and a quarter stayed open for more than 39. Not one of them closed within a fortnight of being published, so the window on this market is consistently workable.
