Your Competition Is Still Typing. You’re Already Done.
iCertifi’s built-in AI handles the time-consuming work that slows every electrician down — reading boards, capturing test results, answering technical questions, and checking compliance. Four tools, working together, so every certificate is completed faster and signed off with confidence
Board Vision Scan any distribution board, circuit schedule, PDF, or paper document. Board Vision reads and interprets the data automatically, populating your certificate without manual entry — eliminating transcription errors before they happen.
Test Vision Capture live test readings directly from any meter or instrument. Test Vision recognises values instantly and maps them to the correct circuits, so your results are recorded accurately the moment you take them.
Spark AI A 24/7 AI technical helpline built into iCertifi. Spark AI is context-aware — it knows which certificate, page, and circuit you’re working on, and delivers relevant technical guidance precisely when and where you need it.
Compliance Check Your complete certificate reviewed in seconds. Every circuit, every field, every entry — checked against current regulations for compliance, completeness, and accuracy before you sign off.

Add Notes to BS 7671 Electrical Certificates
Take Note
Sometimes you need to add some more information to an electrical certificate. Add context or highlight something, add clarity on something for example about the main bonding, or maybe there simply is not 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.
Electrical Test Instrument Calibration Certificate
iCertifi is the only electrical certification software that allows you to add your test instrument calibration certificate to BS 7671 electrical certificates. Go to Settings to upload your calibration certificate. iCertifi will crop it and add it to your electrical certificates. This can be turned on or off at any time

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.
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.
