Under the electrical safety regulatory framework, each Safety Supervisory Body is required to inspect its members, in order to assess the quality of work been undertaken and to maintain electrical standards.
In order to ensure a common and consistent approach to monitoring the performance of Registered Electrical Contractors, the Criteria Document places an onus on the Safety Supervisory Bodies to use a common Performance Evaluation Scheme.
Following a series of workshops, the CER in conjunction with representatives from ECSSAI and RECI agreed a Common Performance Evaluation Scheme document in December 2010, which will now ensure a standardised approach to inspections across both SSBs.
