FAQs – EICR Report
What is an EICR?
An EICR (Electrical Installation Condition Report) is a detailed inspection and test of your property’s fixed electrical systems. It identifies any defects, deterioration, or non-compliance with safety standards.
Why do I need an EICR?
EICRs are essential to ensure the safety of your electrical installation. For landlords, an EICR certificate is legally required every five years, or at the start of a new tenancy, under UK regulations. Landlords must provide the electrical safety report to new tenants, existing tenants, and prospective tenants, especially when a tenant moves in or out.
How often should an EICR be carried out?
Domestic properties: Every 10 years, or with a change of occupancy.
Rental properties: Every 5 years or at each tenancy change, including when a tenant moves in or out. The next inspection date will be specified on the report to guide future compliance.
Commercial properties: Every 5 years, or more frequently if recommended.
What should I expect during an EICR?
During an Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR), a qualified NICEIC-approved electrician inspects and tests your property’s wiring, fuse boards, and electrical systems to ensure safety and compliance with current regulations. The process includes a visual inspection and detailed testing to identify faults or deterioration. The report grades issues as C1, C2, or C3, depending on urgency, and provides recommendations for necessary improvements.
What happens if my installation fails the EICR?
If faults are found, we’ll provide a clear explanation and quotation for remedial work. If further work or remedial action is required, it must be completed promptly to ensure safety and compliance. Failure to comply may result in a financial penalty. Once completed, a satisfactory EICR certificate will be issued confirming compliance.
Do landlords need an electricity certificate?
Yes. Landlords must provide an Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) for all rental properties to comply with The Electrical Safety Standards in the Private Rented Sector (England) Regulations 2020.
Can I get an EICR for my home?
Absolutely. We carry out domestic EICRs to give homeowners assurance that their electrical systems are safe, compliant, and up to modern standards.
