What is a Minor Works Certificate?
Homes and commercial properties are filled with electrical appliances. While an electrician may need to be called in for more complex electrical work such as replacing or adding new circuits, minor jobs are regularly carried out by other competent tradespeople like gas engineers and plumbers throughout the course of their work.
For example, many new gas boilers will require some basic electrical wiring. For this, a Minor Works Certificate is highly recommended. Not only does this guarantee a clean paper trail and record of all the work done, but it helps ensure that all changes are made according to BS 7671 regulations.
Minor Electrical Installation Works Certificates cannot be used in cases where a new circuit was fitted. For this, a proper Electrical Installation Certificate will be required.
Minor Works Certificates include a description of the works, earthing and bonding arrangements, other circuit details and test results.

3 reasons you should use a digital template
If you’ve been using paper pads for your Minor Works Certificates, there’s a few good reasons to go digital with this handy PDF.
Everything’s done in the field
Rather than having to take your copies of the certificate home or to the office, PDF templates can be issued, filed, and organised on the spot. CC whoever needs the certificate, save it online, and the job’s done.
It’s more professional
Many customers nowadays prefer digital certificates. They’re virtually impossible to lose, organisation is easy, they don’t get ripped or scuffed, and there’s no messy handwriting to struggle reading. Digital templates are simply a step up for your customers and show that you’re keeping up with the times.
No more pads and filing cabinets
Paper certificate pads need to be restocked and kept with you at all times. You’ve probably forgotten a blank pad once or twice before, and had to keep finished certificates in a pile because your filing cabinets are full. All these problems are not only annoying, but costly, too – think about how much you spend keeping 6 years worth of records?

Frequently Asked Questions
Do heating installers issue Minor Electrical Installation Works Certificates?
Absolutely! Many boilers and other gas appliances require some basic electrical work. Since no new circuit is being installed, this does not require a full-time electrician’s involvement. A MEWIC is usually issued alongside the work done and any other relevant gas certificates to ensure the work is completed to a high standard and according to all 18th Ed. standards.
How is a Minor Works Certificate different to an Electrical Installation Certificate?
Electrical Installation Certificates are much longer and detailed records. They are usually completed by electricians for jobs that include the provision of a new circuit in the property.
On the other hand, Minor Works Certificates can be issued for small-scale electrical work.
Can I keep and reuse this Minor Works Certificate PDF?
This template is completely free to use. You may even edit it according to your preferences (such as adding a logo).
