cheers for that, would you think they will bo ok to give out?
IMHO, absolutely fine to use & pass on to your customers..
If you check back to reg 631.1 to 631.5 it gives general guidance to certificates & reporting.
The guidance refers to the "Model" reports given in appendix 6. and later refers to any durable medium inc written/electronic etc.. that can be used.
Basically As long as you include all of the essential details noted on the model BS7671 forms, They are durable, and a copy is given to the person ordering your electrical work..
you can produce them how you like...
Carbon sheets,
Printouts,
Photocopy
Electronic.. etc..
You should also include the guidance notes details as well with the certificates that you issue.
if you wanted you could produce your own in word or similar!
some of the Part-P scheme providers have additional info they require..
such as Points served / Max permissible Zs on NICEIC sheets!
