Installation Tenders and Contracts

Electrical installation procurement in this category covers generator installation for standby and backup power, distribution board and consumer unit installation, including the circuit breaker and RCD side of the work, and standalone circuit breaker installation or replacement. General wiring and rewiring is a separate category.

Stotles brings together electrical installation tenders and contracts from 100+ portals into one search, so you do not have to check each portal separately, and you can set alerts for new opportunities across the UK and Ireland.

If you want to search the government portals directly, Find a Tender carries higher-value contracts across the UK and Contracts Finder carries lower-value contracts in England. Public Contracts Scotland, Sell2Wales and eTendersNI cover Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, Ireland's eTenders covers Irish public bodies, and many councils, NHS bodies and housing associations publish on their own e-tendering portals such as ProContract. Generator and distribution board installs are often let as electrical lots inside minor works frameworks, or as small one-off tenders.

Electrical installation must follow BS 7671, usually through an NICEIC or NAPIT registered contractor, and site work brings duties under the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015. Tenders usually set minimum insurance cover, check financial standing and ask for evidence of similar installations at selection stage. Under the Procurement Act 2023, suppliers can be excluded for certain criminal convictions, insolvency or failure to pay tax.

Installation work is mostly bought as small one-off tenders or as electrical lots inside minor works frameworks and wider refurbishment projects. Police and fire services, NHS trusts, universities, schools, councils and water utilities are typical buyers of generators and electrical installation.

NHS trusts, water utilities, and universities post the bulk of the work, usually as standby generator installs for hospitals and pumping stations, or as part of wider electrical and mechanical minor-works frameworks. Housing associations and councils add distribution board and consumer unit jobs as one line within building maintenance contracts.

Read estate condition surveys, electrical installation condition reports, resilience and backup power plans and minor works framework renewals, which show electrical installation work coming due ahead of a notice. On Stotles you can track those signals and the buyers behind them, then follow a notice from pre-tender through to award.

Electrical installation notices carry 45310000 (Electrical installation work), 45311100 (Electrical wiring work) and 45311200 (Electrical fitting work).
