“Hey Siri, ask

  • Works in airplane mode — no internet needed

Voice Q&A

Hands-Free
Regulation Answers.

Type or speak your question — Auvi Trade searches the Approved Documents and explains the answer in plain English, with the regulation reference so you can quote it to Building Control.

  • WhisperKit speech recognition — entirely on-device
  • Plain-English answers with regulation references
  • Works for electricians, plumbers, and gas engineers
Calculators

Cable Sizing.
From First Principles.

Every calculator is derived from physics and engineering — conductor resistivity, cross-sectional area, thermal limits, and installation methods. Not copied tables. This means calculations are always based on verifiable science, not someone else's intellectual property.

  • Cable current capacity from conductor physics
  • Voltage drop: V = I × R × L (Ohm's law)
  • Zs = Ze + (R1 + R2) with pass/fail indication
  • Maximum demand, pipe sizing, gas pipe sizing, heat loss
Reference

Every Approved Document.
In Your Pocket.

Full text of Parts P, G, J, B, and L — searchable, indexed, and cross-referenced. Published by HM Government under the Open Government Licence v3.0. No need to carry the books on site.

  • Part P — Electrical Safety in Dwellings
  • Part G — Sanitation, Hot Water Safety
  • Part J — Combustion Appliances & Fuel Storage
  • Parts B & L — Fire Safety, Energy Conservation
  • Full-text search across all documents
