Know when an EICR is useful

The reason for booking helps the electrician confirm the right scope.

Landlords

Periodic checks provide a clear record of the fixed installation and any action the report recommends.

Homeowners and buyers

An EICR can help you understand existing electrics before a purchase, renovation or planned upgrade.

Business properties

What the inspection covers

The electrician checks and tests the fixed electrical installation, then records the findings.

Included in the inspection

  • Consumer unit, circuit protection and RCDs
  • Fixed wiring and electrical circuits
  • Sockets, switches, lighting and accessible fixed equipment
  • Earthing and bonding arrangements
  • A written report with the inspection results

Not included automatically

  • Portable appliance testing, often called PAT
  • Repair work or replacement parts
  • Further investigation beyond the agreed inspection
  • Areas that cannot be accessed safely

What happens on the day

Knowing what the electrician needs makes the visit easier and reduces avoidable delays.

  1. 01

    Make the electrics accessible

    Provide access to the consumer unit, sockets and other fixed electrical points. Share earlier reports if you have them.

  2. 02

    Allow for brief power interruptions

    Parts of the installation need to be isolated while circuits and protective devices are tested.

  3. 03

    Receive the written report

    The report records the results, any limitations and whether further action is recommended.

Understand the report

Observations use standard codes so you can see what needs attention.

C1
Danger is present and immediate action is required.
C2
A potentially dangerous issue needs urgent remedial action.
C3
An improvement is recommended, but this is not a danger code by itself.
FI
Further investigation is required without delay.
