What is the purpose of an Electrical Installation Condition Report

The fundamentals of an EICR are:

  • To carry out an inspection of the electrical system in order to make sure your electrical installation is safe and up to current standards.
  • To check the wear and tear on the electrical system that might affect the safety.
  • To inspect components of the electrical installation to make sure they meet the IET Wiring Regulations 2020
  • To identify any potential faults that could lead to an electric shock.
  • To keep records of the electrical installation’s condition for any future inspections.

Types of EICR.

Visual EICR – is a report where no testing is carried out,  this and is only suitable if the installation has been tested beforehand.

Periodic electrical inspection (EICR) – is carried out every 1, 3, 5 and 10 years depending on the premises if it’s a domestic or commercial property. These are scheduled inspections to check whether the electrical installation is in a satisfactory condition for continued use, by the use of electrical inspections and test procedures.
