About the Scheme
Our Smart Metering scheme is intended for all individuals who carry out electricity and/or gas smart meter installations. TheNational Skills Academy for Power(NSAP) collaborated with its member employers and major industry stakeholders to develop ‘accreditation’ for smart meter installers. All major energy suppliers support NSAP’s Smart Metering scheme through the Ofgem approved Smart Meter Installation Code of Practice (SMICoP)
All smart meter installers (whether existing meter installers or new entrants to the Smart Metering industry) must undertake appropriate upskilling training, development and assessment mapped against the industry approved NSAP National Assessment Specification (NAS) – both electricity and/or gas. The NAS was originally based on the pre-existing employer meter installer assessment documentation and was reviewed and updated by major industry employers and stakeholders including the Energy Networks Association, Smart Meter Operations Group (SMOG), MOCoPA and MAMCoP; it also includes assessment of the installation, testing and commissioning of smart metering equipment, communications and customer service requirements, carried out by an assessor at a NSAP approved provider
NSAP approved training programmes are mapped to the industry approved standards which gives consistency for installation safety, the quality of work and customer service for all smart meter installers.
The current Self-Assessment Report (SAR) document for both the Smart Metering Scheme and the related Smart Approved Assessor Scheme are included on this page, as with the current versions of the National Assessment Specifications (NAS) for low pressure gas, medium pressure gas and electricity. The SARs contain the Smart Metering Scheme quality assurance requirements for providers wishing to onboard and deliver a Smart Metering programme. The NAS consists of the end of programme assessment requirements that must be demonstrated by individuals wishing to be registered against the Smart Metering Registration Scheme and the Smart Metering Approved Assessor Scheme.
