Electrical Installation Condition Reports in Grimsby

An Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) is a document issued after a thorough inspection of a property’s electrical components. Energy Performance Certificates supplies fast and complete EICR testing for properties in Grimsby. Our qualified electricians examine all outlets, wires, cables, and electrical appliances for faults and deterioration. 

The EICR will:

  • Rule out potential fire hazards and shock risks in your electrical system
  • Uncover overloaded electrical circuits or equipment
  • Identify any lack of earthing or bonding
  • Reveal defective electrical work due to misuse, tampering, or wear and tear

 

 Work with us in Energy Performance Certificates, and let our certified property assessors manage your EICR requirements with promptness and efficiency.

 

Why you need an EICR

Electrical safety checks are performed to identify hazardous issues and suggest corrective actions. An EICR will not only verify that your electrical work is safe, it can also check for areas where the system can be improved. This can help lower your home’s energy consumption and result in greater cost savings.

During an EICR inspection, a registered electrician highlights defective fixtures that can result in loss of property and life. The testing consists of a series of tests including Visual Inspection, Dead Testing, Live Testing and RCD Testing.

Checking electrical installations are best left to professionals. Let our team handle the entire process so you can focus on more important tasks.

EICR Grimsby

Areas for Inspection

Certified electricians take note of the following issues:

  • Adequacy of earthing and bonding
  • Extent of any deterioration or other wear and tear
  • Serviceability of sockets, outlets, switches and light fittings
  • Suitability of the switchgear and control gear (e.g. consumer unit)
  • Type of wiring system and its condition
  • Presence of adequate identification and notices
  • Modifications to the property that may have led to damages in electrical installations

 

What's Included in an EICR?

An EICR will usually contain the following details:

  • Essential data about the property
  • Information about the inspection
  • Limitations of the inspection
  • Overview of the status of all electrical components
  • Adequacy of the earthing and bonding
  • Extent of existing damage
  • Changes to the property that resulted in damage
  • List of all tests conducted and their results
  • Detailed observations made by the inspector
  • Signature of the inspector

 

EICR classification codes

Electricians use a coding system to grade each electrical fault:

  1. C1 – Danger Present. These are defects that require immediate remedial action.
  1. C2 – Potentially Dangerous. A potential danger is detected and corrective steps must be taken in the next few days or weeks.
  1. C3 – Improvement Recommended. A non-compliance is seen but does not signify immediate or possible danger. However, taking corrective steps earlier can significantly lower safety risks.

 

Residential EICRs are scheduled every 10 years or at a change of occupancy. But older or damaged electrical systems may require more frequent testing.
