Risk Assessment Description:

This CCTV system installation safety checklist template from Health & Safety Zone helps electricians, installers and supervisors ensure safe installation of CCTV systems in accordance with UK electrical safety standards.

It covers all essential checks including risk assessment, safe isolation, testing procedures, personal protective equipment and compliance with the BS 7671 Requirements for Electrical Installations and the Electricity at Work Regulations 1989. The checklist follows the 10‑dimension safety framework to protect workers and property, addressing planning, competence, site conditions, plant and equipment, substances, PPE and emergency provisions.

Use this checklist for:

  • Pre‑installation planning and isolation verification.
  • During‑installation testing and verification of live work.
  • Post‑installation sign‑off and documentation.

Each item is answered Yes, No or N/A – any No answer must be resolved before proceeding to the next stage.

Fully editable and shareable — customise the questions to your site, download as a PDF and share with your team.

To use the checklist, the responsible electrician marks each question Yes, No or N/A. Any No response is investigated and corrected before work continues. Completed checklists are retained as part of the installation record and can be attached to the final certification.

Compliant with: BS 7671; Electricity at Work Regulations 1989.

Can I customise the checklist questions to my workplace?

Yes — fully. Add your own questions, edit or remove any of the pre-written ones, and reorder them to suit your site, task or inspection before you download.

Are the safety checklists suitable for UK workplaces?

Yes. The checklists are written around UK health and safety good practice and HSE guidance, and are suitable for inspections, audits, toolbox checks and routine workplace monitoring.

Do I need an account to use the checklist templates?

No — guests can build and download a checklist for free without signing up. Register a free account if you want to save checklists to your dashboard and edit them later.

Can I add my company logo and branding to the checklist?

Yes — add your company logo, colours and details on Standard and Pro plans, so the exported checklist carries your own branding. Guests and Free downloads carry Health & Safety Zone branding.

How do I complete the checklist once it is downloaded?

The exported checklist is a blank, ready-to-use document: print it and tick Yes, No or N/A against each question and write any comments in the notes space, then sign and date it in the sign-off section.

What types of safety checklist can I create?

We are building specialist checklists across a wide range of subjects and industries — fire safety, workplace inspections, equipment and machinery checks, site inductions, vehicle checks, PPE, first aid and more. Browse by category to find the right one.

How often should safety checklists be completed?

It depends on the activity and your risk assessment — many checks are daily, weekly or monthly, while others are done before each task or shift. Completed, dated checklists provide a useful record of your monitoring.

Are the checklists a substitute for a risk assessment?

No. A checklist is a monitoring and inspection tool that complements your risk assessments and method statements — it helps confirm that controls are in place and working. Use them alongside your risk assessments.
