As SELECT begins celebrating its 125th anniversary year, its Technical team is also celebrating after its inspection activities received accreditation with the United Kingdom Accreditation Service (UKAS) for the 26th year in a row.
Accreditation against the internationally recognised standard for inspection bodies ISO/IEC 17020:2012 means SELECT continues to be officially recognised for the quality of its electrical installation inspection service.
In order for accreditation to be maintained, SELECT has been subject to rigorous annual assessment by UKAS since first attaining accredited status in 1998.
The assessment was once again coordinated by SELECT Technical Administrator Susie Liddle, who took on the duties of quality controller at The Walled Garden in 2022.
UKAS is the only national accreditation body in the UK that is recognised by the government to assess, against internationally agreed standards, organisations that provide certification, testing, and inspection and calibration services.
