Periodic Inspection and Electrical Condition Reports
We offer periodic inspection and testing of electrical installations to comply with 17th edition BS7671. Electrical installations naturally deteriorate with age and usage so it if vital to carry out an inspection to check the safety of the system to ensure users are not put at risk. A periodic inspection pinpoints any issues that are in breach of the national standard of safety (BS7671).
An NICEIC electrical installation condition report is designed to state the condition of an electrical installation and will result in a ‘satisfactory’ or ‘unsatisfactory’ condition. Should an inspection find any installation unsatisfactory we will clearly set down our recommendations for action to be taken together with an indication of its urgency which is graded from C1 to C3 ranging from non-compliant to requiring immediate attention.
The required frequency of an electrical installation condition report depends on the type of premises.
- Commercial properties: A full inspection once every 5 years or 25% inspections on an annual basis.
- Domestic properties: A full inspection once every 10 years
Our service we provide covers the following:
