All technical staff working for MacDonald Humfrey (Automation) Ltd involved in electrical design and installation works associated with hazardous areas are fully qualified and certified to the required standards.

The company however decided to further establish its credentials within the industry by obtaining overall company certification by an authorised independent body.

As MacDonald Humfrey (Automation) Ltd have had a 20 year relationship with the ‘National Inspection Council for Electrical Installation Contractors’ this higher certification by the NICEIC in the areas of hazardous installations was a natural and obvious progression.

Macdonald Humfrey (Automation) Ltd has been assessed against the requirements of the NICEIC rules relating to enrolment for electrical work in areas where flammable or explosive atmospheres may occur. The installation categories for which the company has been assessed are as follows: -

Preparation, Installation, Inspection, Testing and Maintenance of Electrical Installations in Hazardous Areas consisting of:

Combustible Dusts
Explosive Gases and Vapours
Intrinsically Safe Systems

Details of this certification can be found on the official NICEIC web site at www.niceic.com

The award of this certification further outlines the strategy of MacDonald Humfrey (Automation) Ltd along with their partner company MHA-Stopford to become a major supplier within the fields of Petrochemical, process and the nuclear industries.
