After a licensed engineer or electrician inspects the electrical installation of a property, they provide a document that details their findings. These documents are called EICRs or Electrical Installation Condition Reports.
The document includes important information about the property’s electrical system. In some cases, these reports are required for either a residential or commercial property.
At Energy Performance Certificates, we make sure to follow the National Safety Standards in every test we conduct.

Safety
Establishing the safe operation of electrical installations is the primary function of EICR inspections.
As the components in electrical systems age, they will eventually show signs of deterioration. When left unattended, these damages can develop into more complex problems that require more resources to address and often into dangerous situations that endanger human lives.
Having your electrical system regularly checked will identify these problems early on so they can be dealt with in a timely manner. This will ensure the safety of their operation as they age.
Energy Efficiency
Keeping your electrical systems energy-efficient is also a worthwhile undertaking. This translates well into cost savings in terms of lower power bills and promotes sustainability. Owners of multiple properties are especially keen on keeping their installations running as efficiently as possible.
EICR tests look for inefficiencies and identify opportunities to improve them. A list of efficiency recommendations is provided in the report, alongside actionable items for safety.
Regulations
EICR inspections may be required for some properties depending on their types or the features they have.
For example, as per regulations from the Ministry of Housing, Communities, and Local Government, landlords now have to provide their tenants copies of satisfactory test results at least once every five years. This applies to their existing tenants and to those who are moving in.
Depending on your property or its features, you may also be required to regularly have EICR inspections conducted.
