Over time, your equipment can become damaged, causing accuracy to drift when using particular testers and tools. Calibration controls errors and uncertainties, ensuring reliable operation that aligns with regulatory standards.
A Calibration Day is a scheduled event where businesses bring their equipment to one of our branches to be calibrated onsite. The process of calibration involves comparing readings of one piece of equipment with another that’s been calibrated and referenced to a known set of parameters. This helps to ensure accurate and reliable measurements so businesses can be confident in the results they monitor and record.
What does a calibration day look like at BED Electrical?
Calibration Days at BED Electrical are designed to be a hassle-free solution to help our customers meet necessary industry standards with ease.
Your tools will be calibrated on the day by our onsite calibration team. There's no need to make unnecessary journeys to pick up your testers at a later date with our same day calibrations. You’ll leave on the day with your equipment fully calibrated. After your calibration, you will be issued a certificate, which validates your equipment as fully calibrated for another year.
Selected suppliers will be in the branch on the day, offering you exclusive deals and showcasing their latest products. During your calibration, you can take advantage of the opportunity to network with other businesses and industry professionals over a coffee, and of course, no Calibration Day at BED Electrical is complete without some free food, often in the form of bacon rolls.
Calibration Days at any one of our BED Branches are the perfect blend of efficiency, compliance, and community. Ensuring you can complete top quality work while connecting with likeminded professionals.
What happens if your tools fail their calibration…
If your equipment fails its calibration on the day, we have the solutions to help you. During our Calibration Days, we offer a service to send off your equipment for repair if it fails the calibration. However, if your equipment is past the point of repair, we have new products on hand for you to browse and purchase on the day.
How often you should calibrate your tools…
You need to get your tools calibrated at least once every year. Think of a calibration as an investment, and the potential of an incorrect reading as a cost of not making that investment.
At BED Electrical, we aim to hold a calibration day every other month between all of our branches. So, each branch will do at least 1 calibration day throughout the year. This way, if you are a Corby based electrician but you’re unavailable for our Corby Branch Calibration Day, you’ll have the chance to attend another Branches Calibration Day a few months later.
If you’re interested in attending one of our calibration days, follow us on social media to be updated on when our next one is being held.
