I'm assuming your after an electrical certificate ? As it stands an electrician cannot 'legally' provide an installation certificate as they did not install or test the wiring etc. I understand this under review by our governing bodies but as it stands it cannot be done. What you can do is ask for an EICR report on your fixed wiring system showing that your electrical system is safe. This service can be found under 'electrical work' on this site. Regards
