Select the points, circuits, distribution work and compliance scope. The live result separates materials, installation and testing allowances.

Select outlets, lights and control points

Count only new or replacement points included in the project. The cable-route allowance is calculated from the average route entered below.

Removal, testing and compliance

A COC is not a cosmetic certificate. Existing defects and non-compliant work may have to be corrected before it can be issued.

Testing and circuit labelling Certificate of Compliance scope

Scope boundary: this calculator provides a preliminary supply-and-install allowance. Final circuit loading, cable size, breaker selection, earthing, fault-finding and COC eligibility must be confirmed by a registered electrician. Making good after chasing, major containment, utility work, three-phase upgrades, generators, solar, batteries, inverters, alarms and remedial work to an existing installation are excluded. VAT is not added separately; the total follows the saved rates.

Planning estimate only. Final circuit loading, cable sizes, routes, earthing, DB condition, COC scope, existing defects and remedial work require inspection by a registered electrician.

Planning estimate only

This is an early planning allowance. Circuit capacity, cable sizes, routes, earthing, existing defects, distribution-board condition, COC scope and remedial work must be confirmed by a registered electrician.
