Electrical Installation Condition Reports in Northallerton

EICR or Electrical Installation Condition Report is an official document that contains several important details about a property’s electrical installation. The report is provided by the electrician or the engineer after a comprehensive inspection of the system. This process adheres to the recommendations made by the National Safety Standards.

An EICR inspection features the following:

  • It can pinpoint issues with any DIY electrical work.
  • It can show which parts of the circuits are overloaded.
  • It can determine any lack of earthing or bonding.
  • It can identify potential fire and electrical hazards in a property’s electrical installations.

Why Get an EICR



Safety


The most compelling reason for having an EICR inspection is safety.

Years of continuous use can take its toll on electrical systems and cause their components and features to deteriorate. Although this may first manifest in seemingly minor inconveniences, issues can build up or become more complex if left undetected. They will eventually become more difficult and costly to fix. In some cases, small issues can develop into major hazards.

With regular EICR testing, these issues are identified at the start so necessary action can be taken to mitigate future damages. The report contains the inspector’s recommendations on how to improve the safety of the electrical installations.

Energy Efficiency

Many property owners get EICRs for another reason – improving energy efficiency. As part of the testing process, the inspector will also identify areas for improvement when it comes to power efficiency. They will then make recommendations on the report. Once these are followed, not only will the monthly cost of power go down, the property will also effectively be more environmentally friendly. This is particularly useful for businesses that pay expensive monthly energy bills.

Regulations

Some property owners are required to have regular EICR inspections. As part of the Ministry of Housing, Communities, and Local Government’s initiative to promote safer residential areas, particularly in the private rented sector, landlords are now required to provide EICRs to their tenants at least once every five years or whenever a new tenant moves in.
