Yes
NACOSS is the old name

AISC is now SSAIB
Both are accredited security bodies for intruder alarm industry and some insurance companies will only except these for the installation of your system.

There are different levels of nsi, there is also SSAIB. These companies are supposed to meet certain standards and codes of conduct for the disciplines and levels they have signed up for with that organisation.
Companies of either scheme may get you a small amount off your annual insurance premium.
What you must be aware of companies claiming they are registered when they are not.
both the ssaib https://ssaib.org/ and https://www.nsi.org.uk/ websites can provide details of what the company is registered for, also need to be wary of companies with similar names.

NACOSS stands for National Approval Council for Security Systems and was replaced in 2001 through the merger of NACOSS and ISI (Inspectorate of the Security Industry). The new combined organisation was renamed the National Security Inspectorate (NSI).

we now get history lessons .....bravo
Hey I used to work for a nscia company ! Before they changed it to nacoss ! Lol
Hmmm confusing...
So a company who claim to be NACOSS installers are referring to a scheme that was replaced over fifteen years ago? That does not sit right with me if they are that far behind the times. Best avoided me thinks.
Thank you for the replies.

Go on Nsi website to see if that company exists?
Some insurance policies still have NACOSS listed because they have not updated their records which is poor in this day and age,but not going there?
