A CoC is a legal document proving your electrical installation is safe and complies with South African law (SANS 10142-1). You need it for insurance purposes and to legally sell your home.

A legitimate professional will always be able to issue a valid CoC for their own work. Ask to see their Wireman's Licence and confirm they are registered with the Department of Labour.

In South Africa, any significant electrical work must be performed and signed off by a qualified electrician. No. An electrician cannot legally issue a CoC for work they did not perform or directly supervise.

This is one of the most common questions we get. A new DB board typically costs between R3,500 and R9,000 in South Africa. The final price depends on the board's size and the complexity of the installation. For a detailed breakdown, see our electrician cost guide, and this is especially relevant for Midrand residents.

If your home is over 30 years old with its original wiring, an inspection is highly recommended. Key signs include frequently tripping breakers, flickering lights, discoloured sockets, a burning smell, or visible old, fabric-covered wiring. Your installer or technician will confirm the details based on your setup.
