Safety
The most compelling reason to get an EICR is safety.
As electrical installations age, they start to deteriorate. Even seemingly minor issues, if left unattended, can easily progress into complicated and costly problems, sometimes resulting in dangerous situations.
With a professional inspection, these issues will all come to light. The electrician or engineer will identify the issues and give their recommendations to make the installations safer.
Energy Efficiency
Many also get their property inspected by professionals to improve their energy efficiency. As part of the testing, the electrician or engineer will look for opportunities to make the electrical installation more power efficient. This is especially useful for businesses that have expensive power bills.
Regulations
Finally, an EICR may be a requirement for some. Landlords, for example, were just recently required by law to provide copies of satisfactory reports to their new and existing tenants.
