Posted By Geoff Ferneyhough Can anyone advise of the differences between NAPIT and NICEIC? Is one better than the other as a mark of competence or not? I am reviewing our approved contractors listing and have some electricians registered with NAPIT and others with NICEIC. Many thanks in advance. Geoff Ferneyhough

Posted By Chris Bramall In my opinion NAPIT is an assessment of an individual as an inspector of electrical installations where as the NICEIC providings a complete quality assured system for electrical installation. I am the Qualified Suppervisor of a NICEIC company and I would recommend always using a NICEIC approved company, However with any registration don't take it as read that a van with a NICEIC (or any other accredetation) logo on is actually an approved contractor. Always verify with the accreditation bodies website that they are acutally an approved contractor.
