No matter you are a landlord, homeowner, or business owner, you need to do regular checks to maintain the condition of electricity at your property. All new private tenancies are required to conduct inspections and tests by a qualified person before a tenancy starts. Failure to do so may lead to a penalty.

What is an EICR?
An electrical installation condition report (EICR) helps in identifying defects, deterioration, damages, and/or conditions and can also show you potential danger,
as well as provides you with recommendations for betterment within a given property. The Landlord’s Electrical Safety Certificate is also accepted as a valid EICR.

What Does the EICR Report Show?
The following classifications show where a landlord must undertake remedial work:

Danger present. Risk of injury. The electrical inspector may make any C1 hazards safe before they leave the property.
Potentially dangerous. Further Investigation (FI) is required without delay.
Improvement recommended. Further remedial work is not needed for the report to be deemed satisfactory.
