EICRs & Electrical Testing in Shrewsbury

Electrical Inspection & Testing

KJ Electrical provides electrical inspection and testing across Shrewsbury and the surrounding Shropshire area for homeowners, landlords and businesses.

An Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) assesses the condition and safety of an existing fixed electrical installation. Inspection and testing can identify deterioration, defects, unsuitable alterations and other issues that may affect its safe continued use.

The findings are recorded in a formal report and explained clearly, so you understand the condition of the installation and any action that may need to be considered.

NAPIT Approved Contractor Inspection and testing is carried out professionally using appropriate test equipment, with clear reporting and practical advice following the inspection.

EICRs for homeowners, landlords & businesses

EICRs can be useful in a range of situations, including assessing an older installation, reviewing the electrics during a property sale, meeting landlord responsibilities or checking the condition of an installation in commercial premises.

Homeowners An EICR can provide a clearer picture of the condition of your electrical installation, particularly where the wiring is older or its previous history is uncertain.
Landlords Periodic electrical inspection and testing forms an important part of electrical safety management for rented properties.
Businesses Inspection and testing can help businesses and other property owners assess the ongoing condition and safety of their fixed electrical installation.

What does an EICR cover?

An EICR examines the fixed electrical installation rather than portable appliances. The exact extent of inspection and testing depends on the property, the installation and accessibility.

Consumer unit The condition of the consumer unit, protective devices and associated electrical protection.
Wiring & circuits Fixed electrical circuits are inspected and appropriately tested to assess their condition.
Earthing & bonding Earthing arrangements and relevant protective bonding are assessed.
Sockets & switches Accessible electrical accessories and visible parts of the fixed installation are inspected as appropriate.
Electrical testing Relevant electrical test results are recorded and considered as part of the overall assessment.
Condition & deterioration The inspection looks for damage, deterioration, overheating, unsuitable alterations and other electrical safety concerns.

Electrical testing, fault finding & certification

Electrical inspection and testing is not limited to full EICRs. KJ Electrical also carries out testing and fault finding where customers are experiencing electrical problems or need the condition of a particular circuit investigated.

Testing for electrical problems

Testing can be used to investigate issues such as nuisance tripping, loss of power, intermittent faults or concerns about individual circuits and electrical accessories.

Inspection and testing also forms part of new electrical installation work, alterations and additions, helping to ensure completed work has been properly tested and documented.
