## Electrical testing prices

Testing charges account for a complete survey of the fixed installation. Our inspection involves testing each circuit from the distribution board, checking accessible fittings and generating the completed condition certificate.
- EICR: from £110
- The total price reflects the number of circuits connected to the consumer unit or distribution boards.
- Commercial premises, three-phase systems and properties with multiple fuse boards take longer to inspect and test.
- Any remedial repairs or component replacements noted on the report are priced separately from the inspection.

## What happens on the day

Every inspection appointment follows an orderly procedure designed to assess the wiring thoroughly while keeping disruption to household or business routines as low as practical.

### Arrival and installation walkaround

We locate the incoming supply, main fuse and consumer unit, noting the layout of the building and any sensitive equipment in use. We discuss which circuits must be turned off first so that daily activities can be planned around the testing.

### Power isolation and circuit checks

Sections of the electrical installation are isolated to allow safe dead testing. We measure insulation resistance across conductors, verify circuit continuity, test RCD trip switches and carry out live checks on energised circuits.

### Summary of initial findings

Before departing, we discuss any immediate defects or observations noted during the visit. We explain what each observation means in straightforward terms so you understand the condition of the boards and circuit wiring.

## Frequently asked questions about EICRs


### What is an Electrical Installation Condition Report?

An EICR is a formal document produced following a detailed check of the fixed electrical wiring. It establishes whether cables, switches, sockets and consumer units remain safe to use, highlighting any deterioration, damage or non-compliance with modern safety regulations.

### Do landlords need an EICR?

Landlords of private rented homes in England must have the electrical installations inspected and tested by a qualified person at intervals of no more than five years. A copy of the completed report must be provided to the tenant and retained for the property records.

### Will the power be turned off during the inspection?

Yes, circuits must be de-energised to perform dead testing, such as measuring insulation resistance and earth continuity. We work through the board in stages to minimise disruption to lighting and appliances, restoring power as soon as testing is complete.

### What do the observation codes mean on the report?

The report categorises issues using standard codes. Code C1 means danger is present and requires immediate action. Code C2 indicates a potential danger requiring urgent remedial work. Code C3 recommends an improvement for modern safety standards, and code FI calls for further investigation.

### How long does an electrical inspection take?

The duration of an inspection depends on the number of circuits, the size of the building and how easily accessories can be reached. A standard domestic installation with a single consumer unit typically takes several hours of visual checking and instrument testing.
