Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
How often should I have electrical testing done?
For most domestic properties, it’s recommended to carry out electrical testing every 5 to 10 years, depending on the age and condition of the installation. Rental and commercial properties often require more frequent inspections, typically every 5 years or when there’s a change in occupancy. Our team can advise on the best schedule based on your property type and usage.
What does electrical testing involve?
Electrical testing includes a thorough examination of wiring, sockets, lighting circuits, and safety devices such as RCDs and breakers. Using advanced testing equipment, our electricians check for faults, deterioration, and compliance with current regulations. You’ll receive a detailed report summarising the findings and any recommendations for improvement.
Do I need electrical testing if my system seems to be working fine?
Yes. Even if your electrical system appears to be functioning normally, hidden faults can still exist. Regular electrical testing in Edinburgh and East Lothian helps detect early signs of wear or damage that might otherwise go unnoticed. Proactive testing ensures continued safety and prevents costly breakdowns later on.
What is an Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR)?
An EICR is a formal document that details the results of an electrical inspection. It identifies any defects or non-compliance with current regulations and provides recommendations for remedial work. This report is essential for landlords, business owners, and homeowners who want to confirm that their installations meet legal safety standards.
How long does electrical testing take?
The duration depends on the size and complexity of the property. A small flat might take a couple of hours, while a large commercial building could require a full day or more. Our electricians will always provide an estimated timeframe before work begins to ensure minimal disruption to your daily routine.
