What is an EICR?
An electrical installation condition report (EICR) is a formal inspection and test of your fixed wiring that checks the safety of sockets, lighting circuits, the consumer unit (fusebox) and earthing/bonding. You receive an electrical safety certificate summarising the condition, any risks and recommended actions so you can prove the installation is safe and compliant with BS 7671.
Who needs an EICR?
Landlords: In England, landlords must have the electrical installation inspected and tested at least every 5 years (or at change of tenancy if the report has expired) and provide tenants with a copy of the EICR certificate. This is a legal requirement under the Electrical Safety Standards in the Private Rented Sector Regulations. (Book EICR with us for fixed pricing and fast turnaround.)
Homeowners & Buyers/Sellers: If you’re selling, an up‑to‑date EICR reassures buyers and surveyors that the property is electrically safe, avoiding last‑minute renegotiations. If you’re buying, commissioning an EICR before exchange can uncover hidden faults and give leverage for remedial works or price adjustment. Many insurers also request recent evidence of an electrical safety certificate.
What happens during an EICR?
We visually inspect and test circuits from the consumer unit through to accessories. Tests include continuity and insulation resistance (dead testing), RCD trip times and earth fault loop impedance (live testing). Findings are documented in your electrical installation condition report with a clear “Satisfactory” or “Unsatisfactory” outcome and recommendations for any corrective work.
EICR observation codes and what they mean
Observations are coded so you know what to prioritise:
What happens if your EICR fails?
If your report is “Unsatisfactory” due to any C1, C2 or FI items, we’ll provide a clear remedial list and fixed pricing. Once issues are rectified, we retest affected circuits and issue a “Satisfactory” certificate. Many landlords pair remedials with the inspection for fewer visits and faster compliance.
How to prepare for an EICR
Please ensure clear access to the consumer unit and meter cupboard, provide parking if possible, and let tenants know power will be off briefly during testing. If you have alarms or IT equipment, plan for short interruptions.
For rented homes in England it’s at least every 5 years, or sooner if your last report expired or there’s a change of tenancy. Homeowners typically test every 10 years, or sooner for older installations.
Yes. When your inspection is satisfactory, the EICR document acts as the electrical safety certificate you provide to tenants, agents and insurers.
Most residential reports are delivered the same day or next working day. We’ll explain any observations and what they mean in plain English.
