Sample CP9 certificate
Sample CP9 with fictional data. All personal details shown are fake.
A CP9 is a visual risk assessment of a gas appliance the engineer has not worked on. IGEM/G/11 sets out three situations for one: an appliance met while working on another, an appliance forming part of a tightness test, and an appliance relit after purging following work elsewhere. It records the visible condition, any signs of deterioration, and a risk classification. It does not say an appliance is safe to use.
What it covers
- Visible appliance condition assessment
- Signs of deterioration, staining, or damage
- Flue terminal condition (external visual check)
- Ventilation provision adequacy
- Risk classification and justification
- Recommendations for further investigation or remedial work
