Electrical Testing

Our thorough electrical testing services identify any potential faults, weaknesses, or deviations from safety standards within your electrical installations. Using calibrated and industry-approved equipment, we conduct a range of tests, including continuity testing, insulation resistance testing, earth fault loop impedance testing, RCD testing, polarity testing, and more.

Electrical Inspections

Our detailed electrical inspections involve a visual examination of your electrical installations to identify any visible damage, deterioration, or non-compliance with current regulations. This includes checking the condition of wiring and accessories, the suitability of electrical equipment, the presence and adequacy of earthing and bonding, the correct installation and operation of protective devices, and compliance with the latest wiring regulations (BS 7671).

Electrical Safety Checks

Our electrical safety checks are designed to provide you with a clear understanding of the safety status of your electrical installations. These checks combine elements of both testing and inspection to identify any immediate or potential hazards. Whether you are a homeowner, landlord, or business owner, our safety checks can help you meet your legal obligations and ensure the well-being of occupants.

Periodic Electrical Inspections

Regular periodic electrical inspections are crucial for maintaining the safety and functionality of your electrical installations over time. An Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) is a formal document detailing the findings of the inspection, highlighting any defects or areas of concern. We recommend periodic inspections for:

Homeowners: Typically every 5-10 years, or when there is a change of occupancy.
Landlords: At least every 5 years, or before a new tenancy commences.
Commercial Properties: Frequency determined by the type of business and environment.

Fixed Wiring Inspection

Our fixed wiring inspections specifically focus on the permanent electrical installations within your property, including cables concealed within walls, consumer units (fuse boxes), and fixed accessories such as sockets and light fittings. This thorough inspection ensures the integrity and safety of the core electrical infrastructure of your premises.
