Risk Assessment Description:

This checklist is designed for electricians, electrical installers, test & inspection engineers and electrical supervisors undertaking cable containment installation tasks such as trunking, conduit, tray or basket systems.

  • Assessing that the installation method respects plant and equipment loading limits and environmental conditions.
  • Documenting that competence, risk assessment and emergency shut‑off provisions have been reviewed.

How to use: Review each question before commencing work, answer Yes, No or N/A, and record any observations. Complete the checklist on site and retain it as part of the project documentation for audit and inspection purposes.

Compliant with: BS 7671, Electricity at Work Regulations 1989, HSE guidance on electrical safety. The checklist also supports preparation for statutory inspections and facilitates continuous improvement of electrical safety management. Fully editable and shareable.
