New Installations, Additions or Alterations
   
New installations, additions to or alterations of electrical installations should comply with the safety requirements of the Electricity Ordinance.
   
Registered electrical contractors should be engaged to carry out feasibility studies before any addition or alteration is made to electrical installations.
   
Future electricity consumption requirements should be considered before carrying out any addition or alteration.
   
Consent by the electricity supplier must be obtained before carrying out any addition or alteration.
   
When the electrical work (including new installation, addition, alteration and repair) is completed, the electrical installations should be inspected and tested by registered electrical workers before they are switched on.
   
After inspection and testing, the registered electrical contractor/workers should certify in the Work Completion Certificate (Form WR1) that the electrical installations are safe and comply with the safety requirements of the Electricity Ordinance.
