Electrical Installation Condition Reports
The EICR provides you with insight into the current health of your property’s electrical system, revealing whether your electrical remedial work conforms to applicable electrical safety standards or if attention is needed.
Comprehensive reporting on your electric utilities
Electrical Installation condition reports (EICR) are provided as an official document given after an assessment of your electrical utilities by a qualified engineer or electrician. An electrical installation condition report should be carried out regularly and in accordance with electrical safety standards BS7671.
While there is only one legitimate EICR, the term is frequently recognised under various other naming conventions, for example a visual condition report, periodic inspection report, electrical installation or safety certificate.
What does an Electrical Installation Condition Report tell you?
-
If the electrical circuits are in good condition and safe to use
-
Whether or not there is a risk of electric shock
-

-
Recommendations for earthing within the building
-
An inspection of the condition of the consumer unit
