Q. I purchased a home some six months ago and duly received the necessary Electrical Compliance Certificate. I am now relocating and will be selling my home. Will it be necessary for me to obtain an Electrical Compliance Certificate again, in order to sell?
A. Every user of an electrical installation, as the case may be, must have a valid Electrical Certificate of Compliance in respect of every installation. When any addition or alteration is effected to an electrical installation, after an Electrical Certificate of Compliance was issued, the user must obtain either a Electrical Certificate of Compliance for the addition or alteration, or alternatively a new certificate for the whole installation. If your are sure that there were not any electrical additions/alterations, from the time the certificate was issued to the seller, prior to your occupation, nor effected by you or anyone on your behalf, you may provide an Affidavit that warrants that the electrical wiring is in the same condition as when the certificate was issued. In this instance, the original certificate can be passed from you to your purchaser. Thank you for your enquiry Robert, I trust that this has answered your question and wish you much success with the sale of your property.
