Inside a Riskora RAMS for electrical installation
Every section is built around the actual task — not boilerplate. These are the task-specific items Riskora drops in by default for electrical installation, ready for you to refine and sign off.
Task-specific hazards
Contact with live conductors during installation or fault finding · Inadvertent re-energisation of an isolated circuit · Arc flash during testing or fault investigation · Other trades' damage to cables / containment · Working at height for ceiling void and tray runs · Manual handling of cable drums and switchgear · Fire / smoke from overheating temporary supplies
Controls matched to each hazard
Safe isolation procedure (HSG85): identify, isolate, lock-off, prove dead, prove tester · Lock-out / tag-out with personal padlock and permit register · Live working only under written dispensation with risk assessment · RCD protection on all temporary supplies (110V CTE preferred) · Cable routes coordinated with other trades; mechanical protection where needed · Test instruments calibrated and PAT-tested · Competent persons only — JIB ECS Gold or equivalent, 18th Edition
Likely PPE
Arc-rated gloves and face shield for testing/switching · Insulated tools to BS EN 60900 · Safety boots with EH rating · Hard hat in shared areas · Hi-vis vest · Eye protection
Permits & hold points
Electrical permit to work / permit to isolate · Live working dispensation (where unavoidable) · Hot work permit if soldering / brazing involved · Roof / ceiling access permit where required
Emergency arrangements
Trained first aider with electrical / burn awareness · Defibrillator location and nearest A&E noted · CO2 / dry powder extinguishers for electrical fire · Emergency stop / DB shutdown procedure · Procedure for casualty rescue from height in plant rooms

Numbered method sequence with responsible person, briefing register, and competent reviewer sign-off before work starts.
A site-ready RAMS for electrical installation
See how Riskora structures hazards, controls, PPE, permits and method steps into a single document specifically for electrical installation — edit anything before you issue it.
Not a generic Electrical Installation template
Most "RAMS for electrical installation" templates online are blank docs you still have to fill in, or AI prose with no structure. Riskora reads your brief and writes the right sections — hazards, controls, PPE, permits, method steps, emergency arrangements and sign-off — built for the actual task on the actual site.
What your RAMS actually contains
Riskora builds a structured, client-facing document — not a generic AI paragraph. Every section is shaped around your job, your site and your team.
Hazards
Task-specific hazards for the job, captured row by row — not a generic list pulled from an old RAMS.
Controls
Control measures mapped to each hazard with residual risk scoring after controls are applied.
PPE
PPE requirements tied to the activity and site, ready to brief to the team.
Method steps
Step-by-step method statement structured around how the work is actually sequenced on site.
Emergency arrangements
First aid, rescue plan, emergency contacts and site-specific escalation routes.
COSHH prompts
Substance prompts when the work involves chemicals, dusts, fumes or sealants — flagged early, not missed at review.
Sign-off
Operative sign-off captured against the document — names, dates and acknowledgement of the brief.
Version history
Every change tracked so you can show what was issued, when, and which version the team signed.
Approval status
Clear approval state on every document — draft, in review, approved, issued — visible across the team.
Audit trail
Who created it, who reviewed it, who signed it. A complete trail you can hand to a principal contractor or auditor.
From copied-and-pasted to site-specific
The reason RAMS get rejected is rarely the format — it's that the document is obviously generic. Riskora rebuilds it around this job, this site and this task.

- • Hazards and controls that don't match this site or task.

- • No emergency arrangements specific to the location.
- • Client flags it as generic and asks for a rewrite.

- • Hazards captured from the actual scope you pasted in.
- • Method steps sequenced for how the work runs on site.
- • Emergency arrangements and rescue plan tied to the location.
