What this trade needs

ECRA/ESA electrical contractor licence check a number
Standard practice. No statute requires it and no insurer demands it of them. It is what a homeowner should insist on, because without it a mistake is a lawsuit rather than a claim.

Ask before you hire

If any of this is hardwired, what is your ECRA/ESA licence number?
Is the monitoring contract separate, how long is the term, and what does cancellation cost?
Do I own the equipment outright at the end?
Does a monitored system reduce my insurance premium, and by how much?
The equipment is often cheap because the money is in a five year monitoring contract. Read the term.
