What is an EICR?

EICRs or Electrical Installation Condition Reports are documents that contain information about the status of an electrical system of a property. These reports are created after a qualified electrician checks and evaluates an electrical installation.

Property owners usually want a satisfactory report which means there are no systemic or dangerous issues in the electrical installation of their building.

The Electrical Safety Standards in the Private Rented Sector (England) Regulations 2020 have made EICRs a requirement for landlords.

The rule states that the electrical installations of rented properties should be evaluated at least once every five years. Landlords should also give copies of satisfactory EICRs to their tenants within 28 days.

EICRs for Landlords in Sunderland

But there are more advantages to getting EICRs aside from following regulations:

The most compelling reason for getting regular EICR inspections is for safety. With regular checks issues with ageing electrical installations can be prevented altogether.
There are fixtures and other elements that may make EICR checks more essential. Having a swimming pool on the property, for example, requires EICR inspections annually.
Environmental changes that may have an impact on the electrical installation of a property can be a cause for an EICR inspection. This includes inclement weather that may have damaged parts of the system.
Glitches and lapses in the electrical installation may be indicative of an array of issues. EICR inspections will cover the entirety of the system, making sure it is still safe.
