New platform brings together trusted electrical safety information and resources

Electrical Safety First has unveiled a redesigned platform that acts as a one-stop shop for electrical safety advice and resources. The new site brings together trusted information, practical tools and industry-leading guidance to help users understand electrical safety, energy consumption and find qualified electricians.

Among the new features is an upgraded Find an Electrician Tool, which incorporates live data feeds from five recognised electrical industry certification bodies, including the NICEIC, MCS, Flexi-Orb, SELECT and Blue Flame Certification. This helps consumers find local registered, competent electricians with confidence.

The site also introduces an interactive Units Calculator, enabling users to better understand electrical consumption and energy use through a simple, easy-to-use tool.

For professionals, a new Resources for Electricians section provides an extensive library of free technical guidance and training materials developed in collaboration with more than 15 leading industry organisations. This includes Best Practice Guides covering a wide range of electrical installation topics, guidance produced by the Wiring Regulations Advisory Group, the Amendment 4 Pocket Guide and access to the comprehensive Apprentice Channel of Excellence platform.

The website has been designed with accessibility at its heart. An integrated accessibility toolbar enables users to customise their browsing experience, whilst a translation tool helps make vital electrical safety information available to a wider audience.

Rory Carroll, Communications Director at Electrical Safety First, said: "The new website represents a significant step forward in our mission to improve electrical safety across the UK. Whether you're a consumer looking for trusted safety advice, a landlord seeking guidance on your responsibilities, or an electrician searching for technical resources and best practice guidance, the new platform provides easy access to the information and tools you need."
