EICR CERTIFICATION: KEEP YOUR PROPERTY SAFE
If you’re a landlord or letting a property, an EICR (Electrical Installation Condition Report) is essential. This inspection ensures all wiring and electrical appliances are safe and fully compliant.
Electricity isn’t visible, and cables are often hidden behind walls, with consumer units tucked away in cupboards. It’s easy to forget to check your electrical installations, which can deteriorate over time. Faulty or ageing wiring is a leading cause of electrical fires.
Our certified team at Wayre House carries out thorough EICR inspections and provides official certificates, giving you peace of mind that your property is safe for tenants and meets all legal requirements.
WHAT IS AN EICR?
An EICR is an official report produced by a qualified electrician following a thorough inspection of your property’s electrical wiring.
For landlords, it’s your responsibility to ensure your rental property is safe for tenants, and an EICR is the way to achieve this. The report confirms that all electrical installations are safe, compliant, and do not pose a risk of fire, giving you peace of mind for both your property and its occupants.
WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF AN EICR CERTIFICATE?
An EICR certificate helps reduce the risk of electrical fires by regularly checking the condition of your wiring, switches, sockets, and other components. The key objectives of an EICR are to:
Identify any damage or wear that could affect safety and report it.
Highlight parts of the electrical system that do not comply with the IET Wiring Regulations.
Detect potential causes of electric shocks or overheating.
Record inspection and testing results to ensure the property remains safe until the next scheduled check (after any necessary repairs).
Provide a formal record of the electrical installation at the time of inspection, which is valuable for future inspections and testing.
HOW OFTEN SHOULD A PERIODIC INSPECTION BE CARRIED OUT?
Regular inspections of your property’s electrical system are essential to keep occupants safe and reduce the risk of fires or electric shocks.
The recommended intervals for inspections are:
Owner-occupied home: every 10 years
Rented property: every 5 years
Caravan: every 3 years
Swimming pool: annually
Inspections, also known as EICRs or landlord certificates, are also advised when preparing a property for letting or before buying/selling.
