WHAT IS WR1
WR1 is a Work Completion Certificate for a fixed electrical installation. Learn about its purpose, inspections and documents before enquiring.
WR1 relates to the work carried out; it is not an annual renewal for every property. Statutory periodic testing and WR2 depend on the installation category.

Common questions about the form and inspection arrangements.
WR1 is a Work Completion Certificate for a fixed electrical installation. New installations, and repairs, alterations or additions to existing installations, must, before the installation is energised for use undergo the required inspection, testing and certification . For work on an existing installation, the scope may be limited to the affected part .
Choose “Not sure” and let the electrician verify technical details. Do not open a distribution board or touch live parts to complete the form.
This depends on the installation and tests. Tell us about business hours, equipment that must remain operating and suitable times. Agree on the affected area and timing in advance .
Check the scope listed in each quote. Confirm whether it includes inspection and testing, drawings and documents, improvements, re-inspection and travel . A documentation fee is not necessarily the total cost of all work.
A WR1 quote depends on the property use, inspection scope, number of circuits, existing drawings, rectification, reinspection and attendance. Provide basic project details and confirm the inspection, testing, documents and additional charges included. A single price cannot be applied to every project before assessment.
The online form collects enquiry and quotation details. A formal WR1 requires the inspection, testing, signatures and endorsement applicable to the actual work. Sending an enquiry or downloading the official blank form does not provide a Work Completion Certificate.
