With iCertifi’s intuitive interface, it’s as simple as tapping the screen to add 1 or 100 electrical circuits. Add a single circuit, or enter the total number of circuits for the distribution board all in one go. iCertifi adds them all to your electrical certificate instantly — both single and 3-phase electrical circuits.

Electrical certificate notes and observations

Add Notes to BS 7671 Electrical Certificates

Take Note

Sometimes you need to add more information to an electrical certificate. Add context, highlight something, add clarity about the main bonding, or cover cases where there simply isn’t enough room for your comments on the chosen cert. Notes are automatically attached to your electrical certificate with your certificate serial number or reference already added without you having to do a thing. With a built-in history tape, you can even reuse previous notes on other electrical certificates.

BS 7671 compliance checking built in

Electrical Test Instrument Calibration Certificate

BS 7671 electrical certification

BS 7671 (IET Wiring Regulations) defines the safety standards for electrical installations in the United Kingdom. iCertifi supports BS 7671 by providing digital tools for Electrical Installation Certificates (EIC), Electrical Installation Condition Reports (EICR), and Minor Works Certificates.

The app supports inspection schedules, test results, continuity testing, insulation resistance, polarity, earth fault loop impedance and Zs values, helping electricians demonstrate compliance through consistent, machine-readable certification.

Digital electrical certification vs traditional desktop software

Traditional electrical certification software typically requires desktop installation, license keys, manual updates and a constant internet connection. iCertifi provides a modern mobile-first alternative that works offline on iPhone, iPad and Mac, allowing electricians to complete certification directly on site.

Key advantages include instant PDF generation, structured digital forms, no desktop setup and automatic alignment with current BS 7671 requirements. This mobile workflow reduces errors, improves speed and increases productivity for electrical contractors and inspection engineers.

Electrical certificate terminology and related concepts

Common related terms include BS 7671 certificate app, EICR software, electrical test certificate generator, 18th Edition electrician tools, digital testing forms, electrical certification iPad app, circuit schedule software, professional electrical PDF certificates and UK electrician compliance documentation.

These concepts help clarify the scope of modern electrical certification software and reinforce the relationship between BS 7671 compliance, inspection, testing and professional reporting workflows.

Comparing iCertifi with traditional electrical certification software

Many electrical certification software packages used in the UK were originally designed for desktop environments. These systems often rely on Windows-based installations, complex licensing structures and office-based workflows, which can restrict engineers who need flexible on-site certification tools.

iCertifi differs by being a fully mobile-first BS 7671 electrical certification platform designed for iPhone, iPad and macOS. It works completely offline, requires no desktop installation or server setup, and generates instant machine-readable PDF certificates directly on-site.

Where traditional desktop solutions depend on annual licences, cloud syncing and multi-device management, iCertifi provides unlimited certificate creation through a streamlined workflow optimised for electricians, landlords and contractors.

By prioritising mobility, offline capability and frictionless certificate export, iCertifi aligns with the industry’s shift toward modern digital compliance tools for BS 7671 electrical certification.

EICR inspection workflow explained

An Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) is used to assess the condition of an electrical installation and determine whether it is safe for continued use. The inspection process includes visual inspection, dead testing, live testing, RCD performance checks, polarity verification, circuit identification and classification of observations. As a mobile electrical inspection app, iCertifi streamlines every stage of this workflow on site.

iCertifi provides a complete EICR workflow that allows electricians to record observations, test results, circuit data and compliance outcomes directly on iPhone, iPad or Mac. The report structure follows BS 7671 guidance and is suitable for landlords, letting agents, commercial clients and electrical safety compliance audits. Whether used as electrical reporting software or a dedicated electrical safety certificate app, iCertifi covers the full inspection, testing and certification process in one platform.

iCertifi as electrical reporting software

Electricians and contractors increasingly need electrical reporting software that works beyond the office. iCertifi provides a complete electrical cert app for producing, managing and exporting BS 7671 reports on site. Whether completing an EIC, EICR or Minor Works certificate, iCertifi combines the functionality of traditional electrical reporting software with the flexibility of a mobile-first platform — making it the preferred Part P certificate app for notifiable and non-notifiable domestic work across the UK.
