Description

The National Electricity Registration Scheme (NERS) is a UK-wide accreditation scheme which assesses the technical competence and capability of those organisations who provide connections to electricity networks.   NERS accreditation ensures compliance with industry standards and regulations, giving your clients confidence in the work you are completing.  It allows providers to carry out contestable works associated with electrical connections, as well as compete for work within the contestable connections market.
