An Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) is an inspection and test of a property's fixed electrical installation. It assesses the condition of the wiring, sockets, switches, consumer unit and other fixed electrical components and identifies any issues that may require attention.

EICRs can be useful for homeowners, landlords and businesses. They can provide a clear assessment of the condition of an electrical installation and highlight any issues that may require attention.

An EICR can include checks of wiring, sockets, switches, the consumer unit and other fixed electrical equipment. The inspection is designed to identify issues such as damage, deterioration, overloading and poor workmanship.

The appropriate frequency depends on the property and its use. For rental properties in England, landlords must have the electrical installation inspected and tested at least every five years by a qualified person.

LJ Electrical carries out a visual inspection and a series of electrical tests on the property's fixed electrical installation. The findings are recorded in the EICR, including any defects or issues that may require attention.

The report will record any defects or observations identified during the inspection. LJ Electrical can explain what has been found, why it may need attention and what remedial work may be required.

The time required depends on the size and complexity of the property and its electrical installation. LJ Electrical can advise on the likely time required when arranging the inspection.
