Electrical Installation Condition Report (E.I.C.R)
EICR: The Specialist Electrical "Health Audit"
An Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) is a comprehensive "top-to-bottom" assessment of your property’s electrical health. Performed by our certified specialists, this audit identifies hidden safety hazards—such as degraded wiring or inadequate earthing—to ensure your installation is 100% compliant with current UK regulations (BS 7671).
Our Diagnostic Process Includes:
-
Visual Triage: A detailed inspection of the consumer unit (fuse board), wiring, and fixed accessories for signs of overheating or wear.
-
Precision Electrical Testing: We perform a suite of advanced tests to verify the integrity of your system, including:
-
Insulation Resistance: Checking cable quality to prevent leakage and shock.
-
Continuity & Polarity: Verifying every connection is secure and correctly wired.
-
Earth Fault Loop Impedance: Measuring the effectiveness of your safety earthing.
-
RCD Verification: Rigorous testing of safety devices that protect lives.
-
-
Detailed Report Generation: You will receive a formal document outlining any faults, their severity (C1, C2, C3), and our expert recommendations for corrective action.
Who Requires an EICR?
-
Landlords: Legally required for rental properties at least every 5 years (or at a change of tenancy) to ensure tenant safety and legal compliance.
-
Home Buyers/Sellers: An EICR provides an essential "bill of health" during property transactions, identifying potential fire hazards or costly hidden defects before you commit.
-
Business Owners: Ensure your workplace adheres to the Electricity at Work Regulations 1989 to protect your staff and your insurance validity.
