What is an Electrical Installation Condition Reports?

If you are a landlord or a potential landlord, then you are responsible for keeping your property safe and secure for any potential tenants. One part of this responsibility includes having an Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) completed to show that there is no damage or deterioration in the property’s electrical system that may cause your tenants to be in danger.


How Do Electrical Installation Condition Reports Work?

To get an EICR, you will need to appoint an appropriately qualified electrician who will thoroughly check your electrics against the UK BS7671 Standards. These checks should identify whether there are any problems with:

• Your electrical circuits or electrical equipment that may potentially overheat of overload your system.
• Parts of electrics that may cause electrical shocks or pose a fire risk.
• The earthing of your electrical equipment and installations.
• The bonding of your electrical equipment and installations.
• Your electrical work that may have the potential to cause faults or injuries.

Once the checks have been completed, the electrical engineer will issue you with a report that states whether they have passed or failed and will detail any specific issues that caused the system to fail, along with the fixes that need to happen for your electrics to pass.
