A property's electrical system is a complex and potentially dangerous network of wires and components. That's why it's important to secure an Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) from a qualified electrician.
At Energy Performance Certificates, we check the condition of your electrical installation and identify areas where there may be a risk of fire or electrocution. In addition, an EICR in West Wickham can also help reduce your energy bills by identifying areas where your electrical system could operate more efficiently.
An Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) is an essential tool for verifying the safety and condition of electrical systems. It tests the wiring system in a commercial or residential property and checks if it meets current safety standards. An EICR will help identify hazards within an existing installation, allowing you to make necessary repairs when needed.
Whether you are a landlord or a tenant, having an EICR carried out on your property is beneficial for the following reasons:
It is recommended that a full Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) is conducted at least once every ten years or more frequently if required. Depending on the property and its usage, it may also be sensible to have additional inspections at regular intervals.
Regular EICR inspections ensure safety and peace of mind. Make sure you stay on top of your EICR schedule to ensure all electrical systems remain up-to-date and compliant with the latest regulations.
Contact a qualified electrician for advice if you are unsure of your property's specific requirements.
