The Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) is a mandatory certificate that details the condition of the electrical installations on a given property. An installation in this case is any electrical equipment whose power is supplied through the electrical meter. The purpose of the EICR is to ensure a property's electrical installations comply with current safety standards and can only be issued by a qualified electrician. Below we will take a close look at the EICR and answer the question of How much does an EICR cost?
Once the inspection is complete the electrician will issue a final report. The report will classify the inspected property as either:
C1, C2 and FI are considered failing marks meaning action is required before an Electrical Safety Certificate can be issued.
C3 is considered a satisfactory grade meaning an Electrical Safety Certificate can be issued without delay.
