Landlords Electrical Report

What is a landlord's electrical report?

You might have heard a landlord's electrical report being referred to as an EICR, electrical installation condition report. An EICR is a mandatory inspection for landlords at their rental properties. The inspection includes visual and electrical testing on fixtures such as the lighting, wiring, consumer unit and any additional power demands such as home EV chargers.

During the inspection, our well trained eyes will look for any flaws, damage and potential signs of wear and tear. In our experience, any electrical faults, no matter how small, tend to escalate very quickly. Often resulting in injury through electric shocks or potential fires. Periodic testing will help reduce costly future repairs if picked up sooner.
