Specialist Electrical Contractors for Hazardous Areas

Novatec Electrical Services provides specialist electrical installation, inspection, maintenance and compliance services for hazardous and high-risk environments throughout Scotland and across the UK.

Our team includes CompEx trained electricians with Ex01–Ex04 competency, providing clients with experienced electrical personnel capable of working safely within environments where flammable gases or vapours may create a potentially explosive atmosphere.

From petrol filling stations and fuel infrastructure to industrial facilities and specialist commercial installations, we have extensive experience delivering electrical works where safety, technical competence and strict compliance are essential.

Based in East Kilbride, Glasgow, Novatec Electrical Services supports clients throughout Scotland and nationwide, providing everything from individual hazardous-area electrical works and reactive maintenance through to major refurbishment projects and complete electrical installation packages.

What is CompEx?

CompEx – Competency in Explosive Atmospheres – is an internationally recognised scheme used to validate the competence of people working within potentially explosive and hazardous environments.

Working in these environments requires considerably more than conventional electrical installation knowledge. Electrical equipment must be correctly selected, installed, inspected and maintained to ensure that it does not introduce an unacceptable ignition risk where potentially explosive gases or vapours may be present.

For clients operating fuel installations, industrial facilities and other hazardous environments, using appropriately trained and competent electrical personnel is an important part of maintaining safe, compliant and reliable infrastructure.

ATEX & DSEAR Electrical Requirements

Hazardous-area electrical work often forms part of a wider safety and compliance strategy involving ATEX and DSEAR requirements.

DSEAR – the Dangerous Substances and Explosive Atmospheres Regulations – places responsibilities on employers and operators where dangerous substances could create risks from fire, explosion or similar events.

ATEX requirements relate to equipment and protective systems intended for use in potentially explosive atmospheres.

Our hazardous-area experience allows Novatec to work effectively within projects where these requirements need to be considered as part of the wider electrical installation.
