Electrical safety report (EICR): the basics
What the job involves
An Electrical Installation Condition Report is a test and inspection of the fixed wiring in a property. The electrician checks the consumer unit, circuits, earthing and bonding, accessories and any visible damage, then grades each observation and states whether the installation is satisfactory.
What to ask a pro, and what to have ready
Give the number of circuits and bedrooms so the electrician can estimate time. Ask whether the price includes remedial quotes for anything found, and allow for the power being off for parts of the test.
Safety and good to know
Private landlords in England must have an EICR at least every five years and give a copy to tenants. For owner-occupied homes it is recommended about every ten years or when buying. Electrical work in homes should be done by a competent registered electrician (for example NICEIC or NAPIT registered): ask for proof of registration and for the certificate that goes with the work.
