Reliable EICRs in Milton Keynes

Wires and cables are often hidden from view, which means landlords and tenants won’t see the damage and potential threats they pose. A periodic inspection ensures that small problems won’t turn into huge issues down the road and provides immediate action to hazardous situations.

An Electronic Installation Condition Report (EICR) uncovers any problems and recommends ways to make electrical systems safer. With an EICR, landlords and tenants in Milton Keynes have the peace of mind that the electrical installations in their properties are in good condition.

Energy Performance Certificates issues commercial and domestic EICRs for rental properties in all postcodes in MK. With a fast turnaround and convenient process, you can meet your landlord EICR duties within the week.

EICR Milton Keynes

Do You Need an EICR?

Landlords in MK are mandated to provide an EICR to new and existing tenants.

 

Current Tenants – Starting 1 July 2020, you have to provide a satisfactory EICR to all new tenants before they move into your property.

 

Existing Tenants – Starting 1 April 2021, you have to provide a satisfactory and validated EICR to all existing tenants.

 

An EICR is valid for up to five years. Some reports may have a shorter validity because of the condition of the electrical systems. As such, you will need a new EICR at least once every five years or every change of tenant.

 

When you are issued an EICR, you need to provide the tenant with a copy within 28 days. You also need to keep a copy of the current EICR until the next assessment.

What Does an EICR Contain?

An EICR provides a summary of the condition of the electrical systems in your rental property. This document contains:

  • Information about your property and the electrical installations in use
  • Details and limitations (if any) of the inspection
  • Summary of the condition of electrical installations, including
    • Type of wiring system and extent of damage (if any)
    • Quality of bonding and earthing
    • Degree of deterioration and wear and tear
    • Usability of equipment, such as sockets, outlets, switches and light fixtures
    • Presence of adequate identification and notices
  • All the tests conducted, as well as their findings
  • Detailed observations of the inspector
  • Suggestions for required actions
  • Inspector’s signature

 

EICR Ratings

An EICR provides three different ratings for electrical installations

  • C1 – Denotes Danger Present. This means the risk of damage, accident and injuries is high, so you have to take immediate action

  • C2 – Denotes Potential Danger. It doesn’t require urgent action, but you have to take certain steps to correct it and prevent it from growing into a C1

  • C3 – Denotes Improvement Recommended. The installation is stable, but there’s still room for improvement.
