Back to topAs a landlord or property agent in Jacksdale, you’re probably familiar with EICR certification and the legal obligation you bear. The electrical installations in your rental property need to be inspected by a qualified electrician, any electrical faults or hazards need to be identified and remedied to ensure your tenants are safe.
An EICR or electrical installation condition report is an inspection of electrical installations such as the fuse box or consumer unit, lighting fixtures, switches and plug sockets. Additional electrical features you may have at the property such as underfoot heating or an EV charger will also need to be inspected.
During the inspection our team of electricians try and identify whether all electrical systems are working correctly and do record any faults which carry high risks.
Definitive Electrical Solutions have years of experience so can tell very quickly if an electrical system poses a risk to the property or tenants, this can either be in the form of an electrical fire or electrocution. To assist us during an inspection, we also use state of the art testing tools and equipment.
Legally, an EICR must be conducted every 5 years, sooner if any rewiring or electrical damage has taken place. Any faults we do find are assigned a classification code.
Codes C1, C2 and FI( further investigation) would suggest there are highly dangerous faults so the property cannot gain a satisfactory outcome. We of course would secure the property and conduct any emergency repair work to minimse the risk before leaving the property. As a landlord, you then have 28 days to rectify the faults identified.
Definitive Electrical Solutions can carry out remedial work on the hazards identified too, helping you get tenants back in the property.
A satisfactory outcome would suggest that any electrical faults identified at the property are assigned a C3 code. This means the faults pose no immediate danger but should be considered at some point in the future.
A copy of the satisfactory report must be handed to the tenant within 28 days of the inspection.
There isn’t a legal obligation to have an EICR conducted on your home if you’re a homeowner. However, it is recommended that an EICR is carried out at least every 10 years. An EICR may be necessary if there are concerns about electrical faults at the property or you have installed new wiring due to an extension or refurbishment.
