← Back to Sparky QC
The forms every electrical contractor ends up rebuilding in Excel — megger test report, continuity test, loop check, ground resistance, termination and torque log, torque record, pre-functional check sheet, commissioning report, nonconformance, RFI, punch list, job safety analysis, daily report, crew timesheet and project schedule. Free, ungated, and printable as they are.
These are the same record structures Sparky QC uses, so if you ever move off paper, nothing has to be re-thought.
A column per phase combination rather than one averaged figure, because acceptance is per-combination and one bad leg fails the cable. Test voltage, ambient temperature and the correction tick, DAR and PI, and the acceptance criterion written beside the reading.
Open the form →PortraitOne conductor, point to point, with the measured resistance beside the value it should read. The expected value is the part that earns its place: continuity alone only proves the conductor is not open, and it is the comparison that catches a high-resistance crimp or a core landed on the wrong terminal.
Open the form →PortraitInjected against observed at 0, 50 and 100 percent, through to the DCS or PLC tag. Three points rather than two: a loop can be correct at both ends and still be non-linear in the middle.
Open the form →PortraitFall-of-potential, 4-point or clamp-on, with electrode spacing, the reading against the criterion, and the soil condition it was measured in — which moves a ground reading more than anything else on the sheet.
Open the form →PortraitNineteen rows: cable, end, equipment tag, terminal, lug type and size, specified against applied torque, and who witnessed it. The wrench ID and its calibration due date sit in the header, because a torque value with no calibrated wrench behind it evidences nothing.
Open the form →LandscapeOne bolted connection per sheet — bus bar, ground bar or equipment hardware, where no cable is involved at all. Specified against applied torque, with the wrench ID and its calibration due date written on the same page as the reading rather than filed somewhere else.
Open the form →PortraitThe gate before anything is energized: installation, torque, insulation, grounding, protection settings, labels, temporary leads and area control — one equipment tag per sheet, each line answered Yes, No or N/A rather than left to prose. Pass, Fail, or Conditional against named punch items, because that is the answer somebody actually gives at 6am.
Open the form →PortraitOne system, one stage — pre-functional through energization, performance and final acceptance. What was done, what it read, what is still open, and a client acceptance block with its own date on it, because that is the date the warranty runs from.
Open the form →PortraitDiscipline, severity, description, root cause, corrective and preventive action, disposition and closure — on one sheet, so the whole life of a finding is legible at a glance.
Open the form →PortraitThe question against the drawing or specification it refers to, with a response block and dates on both sides of it.
Open the form →PortraitNineteen rows for a walkdown, categorised by what blocks energization, what blocks turnover, and what can be closed after — through to client sign-off.
Open the form →LandscapeFor the pre-job briefing: permits including energized work and LOTO, arc flash PPE with the category and approach boundary, eight step / hazard / control rows, emergency details, and a crew sign-on on the same sheet as the analysis.
Open the form →PortraitOne day per sheet: crew on site and man-hours, work performed, equipment, materials and visitors. The delay cause is tick boxes with the hours lost beside it, because this is the sheet somebody reads two years later adding up what a cause cost — and “rain” written in a box is not a category.
Open the form →PortraitEighteen rows, one person per day, against a cost code and area. Straight, overtime and double time are separate columns because they are paid and argued separately, and a single hours column loses the distinction at the one moment anybody needs it.
Open the form →LandscapeNineteen activities with planned against actual dates, percent complete and who owns each one — a sheet to walk down and mark up. An activity list, not a bar chart: no Gantt, and no float, which is a planner’s number recalculated by the tool that owns the logic and worse than useless written in pen.
Open the form →LandscapeThe hard part is what happens after they're filled in — the megger reading with no acceptance criterion beside it, the NCR nobody closed, the calibration certificate that was never filed, and the three weeks at the end of the job spent assembling a turnover package out of folders and memory.
That's what Sparky QC is for. Same records, but expiries, open NCRs and missing paperwork surface while you can still fix them, and the job book compiles itself.
