    EICRs record the condition of fixed wiring, with the inspection scope, limitations, observations and classification codes. We explain required repairs, further investigation and recommended improvements.

    Putting right the defects found during inspection and testing, once the work is agreed, then retesting and certifying it.

  • Portable appliance testing

    Visual inspection and appropriate testing of portable and movable electrical equipment (PAT), with identification and an item-by-item results record. Intervals depend on the equipment, use and environment.

Useful to sendThe premises address and use, approximate size, circuits or equipment quantities, existing reports and access or shutdown requirements.

Inspection intervals and reports

EICR intervals

Five years is a common recommended commercial EICR interval, not a universal legal deadline. The interval depends on condition, use, risk, previous findings and any specific legal, licensing or insurer requirements. Some premises need earlier inspection.

Classification codes

C1
Danger is present.
C2
Potentially dangerous.
FI
Further investigation is needed without delay.
C3
Improvement recommended. It does not make the report unsatisfactory on its own.

C1, C2 and FI make an EICR unsatisfactory.
