Sooner or later cables, switches or sockets will become worn due to the wear and tear. It may be difficult to identify all electrical installations which need repairs because many of electrical fittings or installations are hidden.
This is where professional electricians come in to conduct a thorough inspection, with the goal of:
Identifying damage to electrical wiring that may cause shocks and other injuries.
Identifying wires that are not compliant with Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET) wiring standards.
Identifying any signs of wear and tear of electrical installations.
Reporting any areas of that are at risk of overheating.
Recording overall results of the assessment which will guide the necessary next steps.
It may be time to contact EICR experts if you’ve noticed some of the installations on your property have signs of that could lead to safety issues, such as cuts or scuffing to cable lead, bent plug pins, exposed wires or burn marks on plugs.
