Electrical Testing & Inspection

Contact Us Today
Switched On Electrical is proudly registered with the Approved Contractors scheme run by the National Inspection Council for Electrical Installation Contracting (NIC EIC). This esteemed accreditation ensures that we uphold the highest electrical standards in the UK.

Our highly skilled team is capable of carrying out a wide range of electrical testing, from issuing safety certificates for minor works to performing comprehensive Electrical Installation Condition Reports (EICR) for domestic, commercial, and industrial properties.

At Switched On Electrical, we comply with the latest British Standard BS 7671 “Requirements for Electrical Installations. IET Wiring Regulations.” Regular testing and maintenance of electrical systems are essential, as cabling and equipment can deteriorate over time.

By conducting periodic tests at recommended intervals, we help identify potential issues before they become serious problems, thereby reducing the risk of electric shock and extending the lifespan of your installations. To minimise disruption, we offer flexible scheduling for testing and maintenance, including out-of-hours or weekend appointments.

Electrical Installation Condition Reports (EICR)

One of our primary services is the Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR), also known as a periodic inspection, landlord certificate, or electrical safety check. During this process, our qualified staff inspect all electrical equipment and test all fixed wiring for signs of deterioration, damage, or non-compliance with current BS7671 regulations.

You will receive a comprehensive report of our findings, along with your NIC EIC certificate, which is recognised as a legally binding document by insurance companies, solicitors, estate agents, and letting agents.

Fault Finding

Electrical faults can cause significant inconvenience and financial losses, especially for businesses. Switched On Electrical offers a rapid emergency response callout service, with engineers ready to quickly identify and resolve any electrical issues.

Portable Appliance Testing (PAT)
Under British law (Electricity at Work Regulations 1989), all electrical systems, including portable appliances, must be maintained to prevent danger. While private homes are not covered by this legislation, homeowners are still responsible for ensuring safety. In workplaces or commercial properties, all portable appliances should be visually inspected and electrically tested to ensure they are safe to use. After Switched On Electrical conducts a PAT inspection, we provide a detailed register of all appliances that have passed or failed. Keeping an up-to-date PAT register is crucial for workplace safety and may be required by insurance companies in the event of a fire.
Maintenance
Routine maintenance and testing are legal requirements under health and safety laws and should be performed at regular intervals. Switched On Electrical can advise you on the recommended testing intervals and provide any necessary certifications for fire alarms, emergency lighting, EICRs, and more.
Choose Switched On Electrical for all your electrical needs and benefit from our dedication to safety, quality, and customer satisfaction.
