Electrical Testing You Can Rely On

If you run a business it is imperative that you keep up to date with your electrical inspections and electrical testing. We can PAT test all your electrical equipment to ensure you are completely legal and won't get on the wrong side of the law.

In the working environment, Health and Safety legislation requires that electrical testing on portable appliances is carried out on a regular basis. Roughly 25% of electrical accidents in the workplace will involve appliances such as heaters, kettles and computers.

To ensure safety in the workplace an effective testing, maintenance and inspection programme should be implemented, which is an area that we have built up a solid reputation over the years.

Electrical testing for appliances is also important for landlords to ensure their tenants are safe from the various risks that are around the home. It is crucial to have all electrical appliances tested annually.

Why Do You Need a Domestic EICR?

An EICR is a detailed inspection and test of your property's fixed electrical installation. It helps identify damaged, deteriorated or non-compliant electrical components that could present a risk of electric shock or fire.

A domestic EICR is recommended:

  • Every 10 years for owner-occupied properties.
  • Every 5 years for rented properties or at every change of tenancy.
  • Before purchasing a property.
  • After major alterations or extensions.
  • If the electrical installation is old or has never been inspected.

Regular inspections provide peace of mind that your electrical installation remains safe and complies with the latest edition of BS 7671 (IET Wiring Regulations).

What Does Our Inspection Include?

Our qualified inspectors carry out a comprehensive assessment of the property's electrical installation, including:

Consumer unit (fuse board)
Earthing and protective bonding
Circuit protective devices (MCBs, RCBOs and RCDs)
Socket outlets and switches
Lighting circuits and accessories
Cables where accessible
Electrical accessories and fixed equipment
Polarity, insulation resistance and earth fault loop impedance testing
Verification of safety devices and disconnection times

The inspection is carried out with minimal disruption, although short periods of power interruption may be necessary during testing.

Your Report

Understanding Your Report

Once completed, you will receive a detailed Electrical Installation Condition Report identifying any observations found during the inspection. Any defects are classified using the nationally recognised coding system:

C1

Danger Present

Immediate risk requiring urgent action.

C2

Potentially Dangerous

Urgent remedial work required.

C3

Improvement Recommended

Does not affect the overall safety but upgrading is advised.

FI

Further Investigation

Additional investigation is required before the installation can be fully assessed.

An installation will only receive a Satisfactory outcome if no C1, C2 or FI observations are identified.

Commercial EICR inspection

Why Is a Commercial EICR Important?

Electrical safety is essential for protecting employees, customers, visitors and business assets. Regular inspections also help employers meet their legal responsibilities under the Electricity at Work Regulations 1989 and demonstrate that electrical installations are being maintained in a safe condition.

A commercial EICR helps to:

  • Identify electrical defects before they become dangerous.
  • Reduce the risk of electrical fires.
  • Protect staff and members of the public.
  • Minimise costly downtime caused by electrical failures.
  • Assist with insurance requirements.
  • Demonstrate compliance with current electrical regulations.

Inspection frequencies depend on the type of premises and how the installation is used. We can advise on the appropriate inspection interval for your business.
