Our Services
Electrical Warrant of Fitness for Boats
Boat electrical inspections are carried out to confirm compliance with AS/NZS 3004.2 standards. These inspections are essential for connecting to a 230 volt supply at marinas and ensure onboard electrical systems are safe and reliable.
Electrical Warrant of Fitness for Caravans
Caravan electrical inspections are completed in line with AS/NZS 3001 requirements. A valid EWOF is required for campground connections and helps protect occupants from electrical hazards.
Marine Electrical Compliance Inspections
Independent inspections verify that marine electrical installations meet current safety regulations, giving boat owners confidence their systems are compliant and fit for use.
Caravan Electrical Compliance Inspections
Comprehensive checks of caravan electrical systems ensure wiring, fittings, and safety devices meet New Zealand standards before issuing certification.
AS/NZS 3001 Inspections
Detailed inspections focused on transportable structures such as caravans to ensure electrical installations meet all legal and safety requirements.
AS/NZS 3004.2 Inspections
Specialised inspections for boats and marine craft to confirm compliance with marine electrical safety standards required by marinas.
Home COV Inspections
Home COV inspections provide homeowners with independent verification that residential electrical work meets regulatory and safety requirements.
Record of Inspection (RoI)
An RoI is a formal document detailing an inspection of high-risk prescribed electrical work (PEW) as required by Regulation 72 of the Electricity (Safety) Regulations 2010. Regulation 72 also specifies the information required on the RoI. The RoI provides a legally recognisable written record of what high-risk PEW was inspected and by whom. It may also be used for the purpose of connection, and utilised for other purposes, including auditing and investigations. High-risk prescribed electrical work has to be inspected by a person authorised to inspect such work. However, that person may not inspect such work if they have personally carried out the work, supervised someone else carrying out the work or issued a CoC for the work. The person doing the inspection must produce a written record of the inspection. This record must identify what was inspected, and be signed and dated by the person doing the inspection.
The RoI must:
A.identify the work that was inspected; and
B. be signed and dated by the person carrying out the inspection;
C. and include or have on it the authentication mark, as specified in regulation 111B;
D. and if the inspection was carried out in accordance with a standard, identify the standard and state that the inspection was carried out in accordance with that standard;
E. and if the inspection was carried out in accordance with a certified design,
identify the certified design and state that the inspection was carried out in accordance with that certified design; and
F. state whether the work that has been inspected has been done in accordance with these regulations;
G. and state whether the installation or part installation on which the work has been done is, and will be (when powered), electrically safe
In addition:
The person who carries out the inspection must attach the certificate of compliance or a copy of the certificate of compliance, to the record of inspection. If the inspection relates to work covered by more than 1 certificate of compliance, the record of inspection must identify the certificates of compliance to which it relates. The person doing the inspection is also responsible for entering specific details relating to the work on the Electricity and Gas High-risk Database which will be hosted on the WorkSafe website.
