At RMD Electrical & Renewables, we conduct thorough Electrical Installation Condition Reports (EICR) to ensure your electrical system is safe, compliant, and functioning properly. The inspection breaks down into two key components:
Visual Checks: We inspect your sockets, lights, wiring, and consumer unit for any signs of damage, wear, or deterioration. If any issues are found, we’ll flag them for further attention.
Electrical Tests: We perform various tests including measuring the resistance of the earthing, checking the insulation of wiring, verifying correct polarity, and ensuring the RCD (Residual Current Device) functions within required specifications.
After the inspection, you’ll receive a detailed report that outlines any issues found, along with photos if necessary, and a free, itemised quote for any required repairs.
Why You Need an EICR
Safety First: Keep your home or business safe by preventing electrical hazards like fires or shocks.
Peace of Mind: Regular inspections ensure that your electrical system is in good condition and working efficiently.
Regulatory Compliance: For landlords and commercial property owners, EICRs help meet safety standards and ensure legal compliance.
Insurance & Sales: Many insurers and buyers require proof of an up-to-date EICR, especially when purchasing or selling property.
When to Schedule an EICR
For Homes: Every 10 years or 5 years for rental properties.
For Business: This varies depending on the type of property and business.
