What is EICR?
Electrical installation must meet regulated standards in order to ensure safety. Faults with the fuse board, switches or sockets could cause electric shock or fire, causing injury and damage to occupants.
According to a report by Electric Safety First, electricity fires affect 20,000 homes in the UK every year. Electrical products cause 89 per cent of the fires, while 11 per cent are caused by faulty wiring. Most of these incidents could be avoided by regular inspection and maintenance of electric systems.
Landlords are expected to ensure the safety of every tenant throughout their tenancy in the property. This includes making sure that electrical appliances, wires and fuse boxes are safely installed and working properly.
Regular visual inspections to detect potential electrical issues are necessary. However, some cables and wires are hidden from plain sight and may be overlooked by an electrician who’s not qualified.
Have a qualified electrician check your property and issue an electrical installation condition report (EICR) to prove that your property confirms to high levels of safety standards.

Frequently asked questions
An EICR is an essential assessment that ensures the safety of your electrical installation by identifying any potential issues.
An EICR should be conducted by a qualified and registered electrician. Specifically, the electrician must have the appropriate qualifications and be registered with a government-approved scheme, such as NICEIC, NAPIT, or Elecsa. This ensures they are competent to carry out the inspection and certification in compliance with the latest British Standards (BS 7671).
An EICR helps ensure legal compliance with electrical safety standards while safeguarding your premises from potential electrical hazards.
By investing in an EICR, you are proactively meeting legal electrical requirements and prioritizing the safety of your environment.
An EICR is valid for 5 years for rental properties. Landlords must renew it before it expires and provide a copy to tenants and local authorities if requested.
Failure to have a valid EICR can result in fines of up to £30,000. It’s a legal requirement to ensure tenant safety and electrical compliance.
