What Is An Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR)?
An electrical installation condition report (EICR) is a comprehensive report to assess the safety of an existing electrical installation within a property. The purpose of the report is to identify any damage, deterioration, defects and/or conditions which could potentially present danger to the building inhabitants.
Wiring Regulations published as British Standard 7671 require landlords to have their property inspected and tested by a “qualified and competent” person every 5 years to ensure that national standards for electrical safety are met.
Homeowners may also be obligated to acquire an up-to-date inspection of electrical circuits before the sale of a property. Homeowners are advised to acquire an EICR every 10 years.
EICR reports are more detailed than Visual Inspection Report (VIR) because it involves assessing various circuits to test the integrity of the installation. This allows trained electricians to identify potential defects or issues that cannot be detected during a VIR. The reports also include recommendations if improvements can be made.
Depending on the size of the property, an EICR takes between three to four hours. Our fully-qualified and trained technicians are available to perform EICR for private and commercial properties throughout Kent and the southeast.
