Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR)

An electrical installation condition report (EICR), or periodic inspection report as they used to be called are often referred to by customers as a Landlord Safety Test or Homebuyers Test.


Do I need an Electrical Condition Report?

The simple answer is yes, whether it’s your home, a business or a property you rent out, your electrical installation should always be covered by an in date Electrical Condition Report. Although it’s not a legal requirement to have an Electrical Condition Report (but will be as of 1st July 2020) many legal documents refer to an Electrical Condition Report as a way of satisfying their requirements- The Electricity at Work Act as one example.



What about the subject of insurance? Many insurers require an Electrical Condition Report before providing cover, especially where workers or the public are concerned. How would you feel about being taken to court for electrocuting a customer or employee only for your insurer to tell you that you’re not covered and you’ll have to cover the cost


Electric Vehicle Chargers

The world has changed and so have our vehicles.  With the increase and popularity of new electric vehicles, getting a charger installed could not be easier.  New technologies allow for WiFi Control and Current Curtailment transformers can also ensure that you do not overload your circuits.  As a qualified EV installer have peace of mind that your charger has been installed to the latest regulations and Codes of Practice

Fault finding

One of the most common faults is RCD's tripping in a consumer unit.  This can happen for many reasons.  Sometimes it's a simple and an external plug socket being full of water but sometimes it may be something not so obvious.  My callout fee covers the first hour and by then we should have a good idea of what the fault may be so I would never charge extra until we have had further discussion

Portable Appliance Testing

Portable appliance testing (PAT) is the term used to describe the examination of electrical appliances and equipment to ensure they are safe to use. Most electrical safety defects can be found by visual examination but some types of defect can only be found by testing. However, it is essential to understand that visual examination is an essential part of the process because some types of electrical safety defect can't be detected by testing alone.A relatively brief user check (based upon simple training and perhaps assisted by the use of a brief checklist) can be a very useful part of any electrical maintenance regime. However, more formal visual inspection and testing by a competent person may also be required at appropriate intervals, depending upon the type of equipment and the environment in which it is used
