Project Description
Electrical Testing
In Edinburgh & Lothians
Entrust Burgh Electrical’s Edinburgh NICEIC approved electricians to carry out your landlord or business electrical testing.
Electrical Safety Inspection for Landlords in Edinburgh (EICR)
All electrical installations deteriorate with age and use. It is therefore important that they are inspected and tested at regular intervals to determine whether they are in a satisfactory condition for continued use.
It’s The Law, Don’t Get Caught Tripping!
In 2015 the Scottish Government introduced new legislation for landlords. It requires them to ensure that regular electrical safety inspections are carried out on properties they own.
Burgh Electrical can take care of all your testing needs on new & old properties for landlords in Edinburgh, we can help you stay within regulations and as NICEIC approved Electricians we are able to certify your electrical network.
When should you carry out testing.
Before every new tenancy starts
During Tennancy at no more than intervals of 5 years from date of last inspection
PAT Testing (Portable Appliance Testing)
PAT testing is portable appliance testing and tests the safety of any electrical appliance which can be easily moved (kettles, toasters, TVs, etc.) The law currently requires landlords and employers to ensure that all portable electrical equipment is regularly maintained to prevent electrocution and electrical fires. Electrical items that are used a lot or moved about frequently, should be tested more regularly than those that are not.
EICR (Electrical Installation Condition Report)
EICR is to test the integrity of the circuits and the cable insulation.
Safety tests are carried out on installations which supply electricity to the property, electrical fittings (sockets, switches and light fittings) as well as fixed electrical equipment such as hard-wired smoke and fire detectors and storage heaters.
An EICR document will be produced highlighting any problems, issues and required remedial work.
If you are a landlord or business in the Edinburgh area and would like to discuss EICR or PAT testing with a NICEIC Approved Electrician please get in touch today.
