Electrical Installation Condition Reports in Doncaster

An Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) is a full appraisal of your property’s electrical system. EICR inspections can only be carried out by certified electricians. In an EICR test, all outlets, wires, cables, and electrical appliances are examined for defects or deterioration.

The EICR will:

  • Check for signs of damage or deterioration in your electrical installations
  • Eliminate all potential fire hazards and shock risks from your home
  • Identify electrical circuits or equipment at risk of overloading
  • Assess inadequacy in earthing or bonding
  • Repair faulty components that resulted from tampering, misuse, or wear and tear

 

Work with Energy Performance Certificates, and let our registered inspectors seamlessly manage your EICR requirements for your Doncaster property.

 

The Goal of an EICR

The purpose of an EICR inspection is to identify electrical hazards and minimise the risk of fires and shocks in your property. During an EICR, a qualified electrician will take all necessary repairs and improvements to your system. A stable electrical system reduces your energy consumption and drives greater cost savings.

EICR inspections involve a series of tests including Visual Inspection, Dead Testing, Live Testing and RCD Testing. Throughout the test, a registered electrician looks into the following areas:

  • Any inadequacies in earthing and bonding
  • Existing or potential damage, deterioration or wear and tear
  • Condition of all outlets, wires, sockets, switches and light fittings
  • Compatibility of the switchgear and control gear (e.g. consumer unit)
  • Type of wiring system and its condition
  • Presence of necessary identification and notices

Information in the EICR

Below are the details indicated in an electrical installation condition report:

  • Age and status of the property
  • Details about the inspection
  • Limitations of the inspection
  • Structural modifications to the property that may cause electrical damage
  • Detailed descriptions of the electrical installations
  • Extent of existing damage
  • List of all tests conducted and their results
  • Issues identified by the inspector
  • Signature of the inspector

 

EICR Classification Codes

 Electricians use a coding system to grade all detected electrical faults:

  1. C1 or Danger Present.– A present defect requires immediate repairs and corrective actions.
  2. C2 or Potentially Dangerous– A possible issue is discovered and necessary repairs must be done in the next few days or weeks.
  3. C3 or Improvement Recommended–A non-compliance is reported but does not pose immediate or possible threats to safety. However, taking preventive steps now can reduce risks later on.

 

Residential EICRs are issued every 10 years or at a change of occupancy. However, outdated or damaged electrical systems and appliances may require more frequent assessments.

 

The Cost of an EICR

The cost of an EICR will depend on different factors:

  • Location
  • Age of the property
  • Size of the property
  • Extent of testing required
