Periodic electrical inspections and domestic condition reports near Brooklands
Do you need an electrical safety audit in Brooklands, Hersham, or Shepperton? The most common test is an EICR, which replaced the old Periodic Inspection Report (PIR). This test is sometimes also called a commercial condition report, fixed wire testing, domestic condition report, or condition report electrical.
This test provides an official document after the assessment to check that any system meets conditions set by BS7671. This will include if the electrical circuits are in a safe condition, whether there is any risk of electric shock, whether there has been any defective electrical work, a look at the condition of the consumer unit, and any recommendations.

Do I need an EICR in Hersham, KT10?
If you have ever wondered if you need an EICR (Electrical Installation Condition Report) in Hersham or Brooklands, the answer is yes. Whether you own your own home or a property, which you rent out, or you are responsible for a non-domestic property, an EICR is always necessary.
Home-owners: Whilst it may not be a legal requirement within owner-occupied homes to have an EICR near KT10, home owners should have their electrics tested regularly, to ensure they are safe to use and are functioning correctly. This will minimise the chance of electrical faults, which could lead to electric shocks or fire and even be a risk to life. EICRs are often recommended during the house buying and selling process.
Businesses: Employers are legally responsible for the health and safety of their employees under the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974. They are also required to safeguard staff against the risk of injury sustained from electricity used during work conditions under the Electricity at Work Regulations 1989.
Landlords: Landlords have a duty of care towards their tenants under The Landlords and Tenants Act 1985, and this ensures checking the electrics within their rental properties are safe at the start of a tenancy and maintained throughout. EICRs for both landlords and businesses provide proof that they have met their legal obligations and are often required for insurance purposes.
