What is EICR Testing?

An Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) is a formal document produced after an assessment of the electrical installation within a property. It details the condition of the electrics, highlights any defects or deviations from regulations, and provides recommendations to ensure safety and compliance. Whether you're a landlord, homeowner, or business owner, having regular EICR inspections is essential for protecting lives and property.

Who Needs an EICR?

Landlords are legally required to have an EICR carried out every 5 years or at change of tenancy. It’s not just a legal requirement—it’s a duty of care to tenants.

Homeowners benefit from EICRs by catching potential hazards before they become costly or dangerous.

Businesses and Commercial Properties also require regular testing under the Electricity at Work Regulations 1989.

No matter the size or age of your property, if it contains electrical systems, it needs checked. WES Electrical and Certificates 4 Landlords provide peace of mind through precise, responsible EICR inspections.
