Understand the Condition of the Electrical Installation
An EICR, short for Electrical Installation Condition Report, is a structured inspection and test of the fixed wiring in a property. It is used to identify damage, deterioration, defects and conditions that may require attention for continued safe use.
Simply Electrical Contractors carries out EICR work for domestic, rental and commercial properties across the UK. The scope is agreed before the visit, and access is needed to the consumer unit, circuits and a representative selection of accessories.
After testing, the observations are recorded using recognised classification codes. The result and any recommended remedial work are explained so you can make an informed decision rather than being left with unexplained technical wording.

Useful Information Before You Enquire

01What does an EICR cover?
It reports on the state of the fixed wiring, the protective devices, the earthing arrangements and a representative selection of accessories.
02Does the power have to go off during the inspection?
Testing normally requires temporary interruption of circuits. The electrician will discuss access and operational requirements before work begins.
03What happens if the report identifies faults?
The report records observations and classification codes. Any remedial work can then be discussed and quoted separately.
04Do you provide EICRs for commercial premises?
Yes. Inspection and testing is available for domestic, rental, commercial and industrial environments, with the scope agreed for the property.
