Plumbing certificate of compliance template south africa form

hi everybody there's a quick presentation on how to verify that you have are in position of a ballad COC COC is a specifically compliance issued for your low voltage electrical insulation it doesn't necessarily have to be the original COC but it has to be a valid copy what valid means that any Corrections on those documents any inconsistency of information makes this entire document valid so it's very important that when you get the document you know how to check and verify that you have not been the victim of incompetence or some sort of corrupt business practice so writing through it briefly the certificate number is a unique number for each certificate okay if you have more than one certificate for your house they should have different numbers you won't find these numbers on any other certificates here you have to check initial or supplementary certificates and there's all stuff the electrician use perform the work or the inspection will do what's the difference if it's a new building or you can't find your certificate at all it'll be an initial certificate if you can find your certificate and you do have it and it's valid it'll issue a supplementary certificate only one of these blocks gets checked and if it's the first supplementary certificate is a supplement one to initial certificate and that value that number there will be the certificate number of your original COC and the date that it was issued on then here all these fields have to be completed and physical addresses to address you name your building and your GPA is not so important but it can help as it do with the poll number suburban township district town city that has to we'll be fooled in the RF not so important but again all this information helps and it provides useful information for the next guy that you invite around to do repairs alterations or inspections then he is the registered person and you are entitled and he is required to present is electrical license a Wyman's license or registration to you when he arrives at your premises and you're entitled to Alice wood so he says I his full name and his ID number and you can verify that against the information he's giving you previously and declares that he's inspecting tests and found to be compliant so that's the important thing this report or the CRC only gets issue at the end once the installation has been spectin found to be compliant very important here a test test report this test report must reference that certificate number that we discussed previously up here and it's basically a list of everything is found wrong and what applies to rectify it you are allowed under the consumer protection act to request that when he's done all that work only then fund the installation be compliant only then do you get issued at the CRC so there's three types of installations here hanging has to check any one of the blocks new electrical insulation would be basically four new houses being built an existing electrical insulation that would be typically if he's performing repairs or fault-finding or if you're just doing an inspection prior to selling the house or new part in existing electrical installation would be basically if you're doing an alteration so any one of these blocks get sticks then as I said he's into the numbers to become consciousness report we've discussed that okay now the registered person registration number this is his numbers it appears the Department of Labor and you can verify this with the electrical approved inspection authority of South Africa the in cry front n1 Robert Road the date that he was registered and then he has to take he'll be one of these he'll be an electrical test of a single-phase which means he cannot do any of the other work here for these other two guys or he'll be an electrical installation electrician means he can look at three-phase and a single things or there'll be a mastering selection electrician and he can look at all these three but again he's only going to tick one of these blocks most the insulation electrician would typically be for hazard environments and hospitals and so on many signs and dates that's a day fatigue issue the COC evany these are his details okay if the telephone number has to be there fax number well maybe not everybody has effects used a cell number email address everybody in this day and age has an email address address gotta fill it in again if there's something here but you feel it should be here and it's not being sold in I would I would question it and ask him to put it in yeah very important if the certificate is not better than this all the sections have been completed correctly and the test reporting is in the form approved by the chief inspector and attached so we'll go through the test report in another video the certificate will be invalid if any Corrections have been made and very important to you if there's any Corrections crossing out or whatever invalid certificate now typically that is going to be the electrical contractor as well and again you can repeat his name and ID number check that it is as per what he's filled in here and as for what information he's given you his electrical contractor registration is not the same as his resistant person registration number this is his number with the ECA of the ECB it'll typically start with W see if he's in the Western Cape EC is in the Eastern Cape followed by a four-digit number and his date of registration also unlikely to be the same as his release date of registration of the Department of Labor and he signs again and he'll have to fill out his details here again if he's doing work because he is the electrical contractor name address telephone number again gara phi that it's the same as it is in that locker this is you you've put your name and sign and date when you are happy this certificate is valid and you've received it now the test report for electrical installations okay so again he has to copy that number in the top right hand corner of page one put it in here and the data check that it's the same you will most likely add additional pages so that has to be checked then there's some notes here which you can go through very one important thing here the appliance that is plugged in is not part of a permanent installation and therefore doesn't form for this report so you cannot expect him to come in and inspect your insulation issue a CSE and now you think that your candle and your fridge are new Giza are a hundred percent so he might you'll cover the with it's just on a given a stove you'll cover the wiring up to the Geezer stove but he's not going to inspect inside the Geezer stuff that's your responsibility okay location ok says it's not providing the certificate compliance but so think it's a good idea to include physical address name building and again check it against what he's entered previously existing certificate yes or no as we've said before if its initial certificate it'll say no if it's a supplementary you'll take yes verify and check against what was on the first page date issue that would be for the existing certificate and a certificate number okay so is an existing installation alteration new installation or temporary installation we've covered three of these before temporary installation would be something like a building site container or something like that which is going to be moved and and only one of these blocks can be checked okay same here residential commercial industrial common area for multiple uses sectional title only one of these blocks will be checked and it's another type of installation has to describe it okay type of electricity system so this is basically the earthing system on your premises is unlikely it'll be a TT we don't have TT in South Africa an IT system would typically found a hospital or ship so it's going to be one of these three and he's only going to tick one of them and he asked if the supplier has provided an earth terminal here's enough and then he looks at the voltage on a single-phase system it'll be 230 volts and it will take the 230 analytic single-phase I've never seen a two-phase system but on a three-phase system which you do have in some of the houses both before the new regulations come in you'll have 400 volts and you'll take that 525 you typically fireman on a mine or other voltages like 690 voltages elsewhere but you can only take one of this row and one of this room the phasor rotation that doesn't know to you he just checks if it's clockwise or anti-clockwise the frequency in South Africa 50 Hertz that'll be checked prospective short-circuit current a point of control okay so this is three things you can either calculate it which you should be doing here or you can measure it with these instrument but there's a place where later all you can say from the supply what does mean is you reads it off the breaker you should ask him to calculate at this point so there is some kind of checking and verification because there'll be an option to in this home to have all three of these three and you want to check that there's some kind of consistency then he is going to tick the main switch type again only one of these will be if it's a single-phase system it'll be 2 poles if it's a three-phase system three poles or four poles he has to put the current rating and the short circuit withstand rating and again you can go up to the main break on your switchboard and verify these values they printed on the breaker rated earth leakage stripping current typically about 30 milliamps for some industrial applications it might be higher not higher than 30 milliamps for domestic single-phase and if it is other useful in that value there so it's protection yes or no it's only one that can be checked and very important here it's a tick nada ex is an alternative power supply install that would be a generator PV panels or whatever you got there yes or no is part of the installation specialized in electrical installation for a domestic installation there should be no but if it is is gonna have to be do additional pages is any of the in part of the installation the voltage above 1 KB should be no if it's above it falls under stands 101 for 2 - 2 which is not the standard is the installation 105 in the same new supply this will typically be 4 you might find a construction site you might find the buildings but an AC is doing a co C for the entire building should be no if yes he's going to fill out the name of the person and supervise the installation ok now pay attention to section 3 this is the description of the installation covered by this reporter this is where some guys try to get away with not being responsible for certain areas so read this area carefully check you're happy if there's something you feel that you agreed on him being including and he has an included or is excluding this area make a note of it get them to get to add it if you won't edit called the electrical inspection authority just to verify ok number of circuits are points covered by this report again is an existing or new also temporary you got to check that it's existing it's in compliance and in agreement with which was written previously or it's in this block he only fills in one of these major columns the other one gets crossed through a line through the entire block okay and this will basically be your main distribution board and you got acceptable distribution boards a b c UD or whatever if you have more than four sub distribution boards here to put in another page here and carry on EFG H he'll talk about lighting circuits and these will be lighting so you could supply directly off the board off the subsidies distribution boards and will be a number here adding points that you liked socket outlet circuits that you can verify yourself by counting the breakers the board must be labeled so it should be pretty easy and socket-outlets and so on so forth so that's that section the next section is inspection has he done additional tests normally it's yes again it's an existing on your old temporary if it's it has to be in agreement with what was said forward previously and if it's not that aligned through the column then it doesn't apply to okay here you cannot have no it can either be yes or not applicable okay and he has to fill in each of these lines where it's likely you're going to have an auto clickable it is going to be either thirteen point a or thirteen point B okay so he'll say yes to one and not applicable to the other in this situation if you haven't known in this column it means that this installation is not safe and the COC is not valid because COC is only issued for safe compliant installations okay this section these are basically all the tips that he's going to do here again the column that doesn't lie cross through it now he's going to put these type and maybe even a serial number of his instrument and he's going to record his values he's not going to say parcel correcto okay here that's not acceptable if there's an own value who want to see a numeric value there there's a killer amp rating we want to see a numeric value same for both mega mini amp continuity ring circus losses there is this is not a value this is just an okay or pass or correct so there you can put it in now here's another opportunity for you to look at your ka value here you should actually be measuring it or here you can measure and here you can say from the supplier so now you've dropped the document if you have a calculated a measured or from supplier then again this is not law but it's a good it's just good practice then we're going to come down to these last four tests these last four tests is simply a correct or incorrect pass there's there's no numeric value and this is all manual testing or you can test with an instrument here but he will typically put a tick for each of these again if it's applicable he can say you know for looking at the single-phase insulation and phase rotation that'll be not applicable so it's it's going to be very important that this is all filled out and all there are ticks links to everything that is applicable and it's not applicable it says na okay then again look after this cap comment section this is where a lot of guys trying to typically get away with the responsibility of not checking a difficult area and excluding it from the installation but you paid for it you think your installation is safe and compliant and there's a part of it he's avoided so read this carefully if anything he's specific excluded pointed out with him and again if you're not convinced to into the electrical inspection authority now we come to section 5 which is responsibility if he's done the design the material specification procurement construction and the basically the inspection tests he'll fill out five point four only and he takes responsibility for sections five point one to five point three if it's different people doing each of these stages well name a block letters position in other words they position the company a signature this will be an engineer typically there will be an extra registered number date address and then the same for all these things this guy doesn't need to be an engineer it can just be the buyer but he so needs to put in all his details in here and the guy doing the construction as well and this is the one that you need to pay attention to so if he is the electrician he won't fill in those first three sections but he does by filling in and it states previously take responsibility for other three sections so he'll say and this check this is compliance with the 13 a 13 B we discussed previously it has to agree if you say 13 point a that must be ticked if 13 point B that must be take not both and here here is why I say look out for his exclusions because it says the extent of my liability is limited to the installation described in section 3 okay name of registered Pearson registration certificate number with Department of Labor again check it's in camembert in agreement with what was on page 1 same here his signature his telephone number date check all that information and this one is if you want it verified by a chief inspector or inspection authority or professional engineer this is the section that applies so we wouldn't normally worry about this in normal situations so if there's anything you feel I haven't covered and you want some clarification please let me know in the comments line and thanks for watching
