Why you might need an eICR
An Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) is a thorough inspection of your property's electrical installation. It identifies wear and tear, damage, deterioration and potential safety hazards, giving you a clear picture of the condition of your electrics and highlighting any work that may be needed to keep your property safe.
You may need an EICR if you:
• Are a landlord and need to meet your legal responsibilities.
• Are buying or selling a property and want confidence that the electrical installation is safe.
• Own an older home that hasn't had its electrics inspected for many years.
• Require an inspection for insurance purposes.
• Simply want peace of mind that your home's electrical system is safe for your family.
At CPB Electrical Installations, every EICR is carried out thoroughly, with honest advice and a clear explanation of any observations found. If remedial work is required, we'll explain your options clearly, without any pressure.
When should you have an eICR?
An EICR is recommended if:
• You have recently purchased a property.
• Your home is over 10 years old and hasn't been electrically inspected.
• You're a landlord and your rental property requires a valid EICR.
• You've noticed frequent tripping, flickering lights or other electrical issues.
• You're planning renovation or extension work.
• You simply want reassurance that your electrical installation is safe.
What Does an EICR involve
An Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) is a comprehensive inspection and test of your property's electrical installation. During the inspection, we assess the overall condition of your electrics, identify any damage, deterioration or safety concerns, and ensure your installation complies with current electrical safety standards.
Our EICR includes:
• A thorough visual inspection of your electrical installation.
• Testing of electrical circuits and protective devices.
• Inspection of your consumer unit (fuse board), earthing and bonding.
• Identification of any potentially dangerous or non-compliant electrical issues.
• A detailed EICR certificate explaining our findings and any recommended remedial work.
Once the inspection is complete, we'll explain the results in plain English and answer any questions you may have. If any remedial work is required, we'll provide honest advice and a no-obligation quotation.
