Electrical certificates on your phone
ZipCert is electrical certificate software for UK electricians. Do EICRs, EICs and Minor Works on your phone — on site, even with no signal — then send a branded PDF.
I'm Andrew, I built ZipCert and use it on my own jobs.

Who it’s for
Built for solo sparks and small firms
ZipCert is for sole traders and small electrical firms who want certificates finished on site — not back at a Windows desk after the van is parked.
Small firms
Add engineer seats when you need them. Same no-signal cert filling and branded PDF for every engineer on the plan.
Phone-first, not desktop-first
Fill readings where the board is. Sync when you have signal. Download the PDF when the job is done.

No-signal EICR
Fill in your cert with no signal — it syncs when you’re back in signal
Basements, new builds, rural jobs: keep the EICR (or EIC / Minor Works) going on the phone. Readings and notes stay on the device, then sync when you’re back in signal.
Keep filling
No signal? The form stays editable. You are not stuck waiting for a Windows laptop to boot in the van.
Sync later
When the phone has data again, ZipCert syncs the draft so the office and other seats can see it.
Your judgement stays yours
ZipCert helps you capture readings and produce the PDF. C1–C3 calls and competence stay with you — the app does not “decide” the inspection for you.
Certificate types
EICR, EIC, Minor Works and other certificates
One electrical certificate app for the day-to-day paper you actually issue.
Core
EICR, Electrical Installation Certificate (EIC), and Minor Works.
Also covered
EV charge point installation, solar PV installation, fire alarm and emergency lighting certificates, and PAT records.
See layouts first
Open public sample certificates (fake client data) or go straight to the sample EICR — no signup.
Branded PDF
Finished cert → clean PDF with your logo
When the certificate is ready, ZipCert produces a branded PDF you can send to the customer or the office. Optional firm logo on the letterhead; optional CPS / scheme brandmark you upload yourself if you have permission to use it.
Talk to text
Tap the mic in a text box, such as an observation or comments, and speak. Your words are typed into the box for you to check. It uses your phone’s own speech-to-text. The boxes for readings don’t have a mic.
Board photo fill
Use a board photo to help fill circuit details where the product supports it — you can always edit the readings.
Point 5 checks
Built-in Point 5 checks help you catch incomplete items before you issue.
Schemes assess certificate content, not the software brand. ZipCert does not claim NICEIC or NAPIT approval. See public samples.
How a job works
From start to PDF in a few steps
- Start a certificate on your phone.
- Capture readings on the phone — with no signal if you need to. Tap the mic to speak observations and notes instead of typing them, and use board photo fill where it helps.
- Edit and check — Point 5 checks flag gaps; you fix and confirm competence.
- Issue the branded PDF with your logo (and optional scheme brandmark you uploaded).
- Send or store — customer, office, or your records. Certificates stay yours to download.
