Connect electrical project records without blurring isolation and certification
Keep scope, drawings, RAMS and evidence together. Use the live safe-isolation workflow while EIC, MEIWC and EICR stay blocked from public issue pending specialist approval.
SiteHQ in practiceThe practical problem
Connect electrical project records without blurring isolation and certification
An internal site isolation record is not an Electrical Installation Certificate or an EICR. SiteHQ keeps those purposes separate so a useful workflow does not become an unsupported claim of inspection, testing or certification.
FICTIONAL DEMONSTRATION
Awaiting reinstatementCircuit L4-07 isolation
An isolation record is kept distinct from installation certificates and condition reports.
Isolation pointDB-L4-01 / protective device 7
Secure isolationLock and warning tag recorded
VerificationCompetent person confirmation required
ReinstatementNot started
A practical example
From electrical enquiry to controlled reinstatement
Keep the project scope, drawings, RAMS and evidence together, with a dedicated safe-isolation record and specialist certificate workflows kept firmly gated.
Plan the isolation
Record every energy source and intended isolation point without claiming it has been proved.
Confirm on site
The authorised person records lock/tag ownership, test instrument, actual verification and handover.
Reinstate under control
Record work completion, checks, authorisation and reinstatement as separate events.
Relevant SiteHQ records
What is available—and what remains gated.
Status wording is deliberately explicit. A workflow being present in software does not by itself approve a specialist certificate or replace the person responsible for the real work.
RAMS and project evidence

Electrical safe-isolation and reinstatement record
Available nowDedicated verification, handover and reinstatement workflow in SiteHQ.
EIC, MEIWC and EICR
Preview validated — not generally availableDistinct typed Preview workflows exist, but electrician review, rights review and public-issue authority remain outstanding.
Enter once, carry forward carefully
Useful project information moves with the job.
SiteHQ can reuse confirmed information and keep its source visible. It must not turn a document reference into a physical observation.
- Project, work area and equipment identity
- Scope, drawings and RAMS references
- Named issuer, receiver and responsible people
- Attachments and exact document versions
Fictional Preview exampleDistribution board DB-L3-02
Energy sourcesMain supply and control circuit listed
Physical verificationNot inferred — must be recorded on site
HandoverNamed issuer and receiver required
Certificate boundaryNot an EIC, MEIWC or EICR
Human approval stays visible
SiteHQ prepares and controls the record. People make the decision.
SiteHQ does not test electrical installations, verify safe isolation or certify work. EIC, MEIWC and EICR public issue remains blocked until an experienced electrician reviews each workflow and the applicable form-rights position is resolved.
Questions contractors ask
Clear answers before you start.
Can SiteHQ issue an EICR today?
No. The distinct workflow is Preview validated, but practitioner approval and public-issue authority are still outstanding.
Will AI fill in test results?
No. AI must not invent readings, inspection findings, verification, competence or signatures.
Is an isolation record the same as an EIC?
No. The isolation record controls a site activity; an EIC is a specialist certificate with different inspection, testing and signatory requirements.
