Electrical Installation Condition Reports
Comprehensive EICR testing to BS 7671 for commercial, industrial and multi-occupancy premises.
What You Need to Know
An Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) is a detailed assessment of the fixed electrical installations within a building. It identifies any deterioration, defects, dangerous conditions, or non-compliance with current safety standards. For commercial landlords and business owners, regular EICRs are not just best practice; they are a legal requirement under the Electricity at Work Regulations 1989.

How It Works
Initial Survey
We conduct a thorough visual inspection and review of existing electrical documentation and previous test results.
Dead Testing
With circuits safely de-energised, we test insulation resistance, continuity, and polarity across all installations.
Live Testing
We carry out earth fault loop impedance, RCD response times, and prospective fault current measurements on live circuits.
Comprehensive Report
You receive a fully compliant EICR document with clear coding, observations, and prioritised remedial recommendations.
Frequently Asked Questions
How often do I need an EICR for my commercial premises?
Commercial premises should be inspected at least every 5 years, or more frequently for higher-risk environments such as swimming pools (1 year) or construction sites (3 months). Your insurer or licensing authority may require more frequent testing.
What happens if my EICR identifies faults?
We provide a clear breakdown of all findings using the C1 (danger present), C2 (potentially dangerous), and C3 (recommended improvement) coding system. We can then quote for and carry out any necessary remedial work.
Can you carry out the EICR outside business hours?
Yes. We offer flexible scheduling including evenings and weekends to minimise disruption to your business operations. We can also phase the inspection over multiple visits for larger premises.
