Electrical Installation Condition Report

I am qualified to carry out EICR Testing and issue an Electrical Installation Condition Report which can be used for a variety of uses including letting, buying and selling your house in SW4 Clapham.

What Is An EICR?

EICR is short for Electrical Installation Condition Report. EICR Testing involves a competent electrician undertaking tests and inspections to produce a report to establish the overall 'condition' of a property. The report is either satisfactory or unsatisfactory and defects and issues, if any, will be listed. The EICR was previously called a periodic inspection report.

Do You Need An EICR?

I am usually asked to carry out an EICR for the following reasons:

• certifying a rental property
  
• certifying a commercial property such as a shop or office
  
• certifying a domestic property where the homeowner wants peace of mind that his/her electrical installation is safe
  
• certifying a domestic property that's for sale where the homeowner has been asked by a building company or potential buyer to provide a safety certificate

Please note, if your electrical installation is new then you require an electrical installation certificate. There are also special rules if you have a HMO (House of Multiple Occupation) which may mean you require an Emergency Lighting Certificate.

What Happens if it Fails?

Unfortunately there are a large number of electrical contractors out there who will make up repair work or fail your installation just to earn some extra money carrying out the remedial works. Sometimes the remedial work can be 10 times the cost of the EICR report. This is why we specialise in independent EICR's in SW4 Clapham. If you're a landlord letting a property or a seller selling a property and your EICR fails, we won't charge you a penny. It's a no pass no fee policy.

No pass no fee. As long as you're a landlord letting a property or a seller selling a property, if the EICR fails, we won't charge you for the report. We are independent and fair and we don't do repair work. Our testing and inspecting is unbiased and we promise to fix any minor issues free of charge.

What Does EICR Testing Involve?

Your competent electrician will check the installation against the requirements of BS7671 The Requirements for Electrical Installations (IEE Wiring Regulations) - this is the British Standard to which electrical safety is measured across the country and is updated when deemed necessary.

The electrician will take into account the age and circumstances of the installation and check the following:

• whether the installation is adequately earthed
  
• whether the installation is adequately bonded
  
• whether switchgear and controls are suitable
  
• whether serviceability of equipment is adequate
  
• the type of wiring and it's condition
  
• the provision of RCD's for socket outlets which can be used to plug in equipment for outdoor use
  
• the presence of suitable notices and identification
  
• wear and tear, damage, deterioration and signs of overheating
  

Please note, if your electrical installation is new then you require an electrical installation certificate. There are also special rules if you have a HMO (House of Multiple Occupation) which may mean you require an Emergency Lighting Certificate.
