Electrical Installation Condition Reports ⚡️ East Sussex

All electrical installations deteriorate over time. And need to be inspected and tested at regular intervals to check whether they remain safe for continued use.

But electric cables are usually hidden inside the fabric of a building while fuse boards are often tucked away in cupboards. Unsurprisingly, they are often overlooked and left unchecked for damage, misuse or wear and tear.

This is a mistake, with potentially serious consequences. Old, or faulty, wiring is one of the main causes of electrical fires in buildings. But you can reduce the risk by having the condition of your cables, switches, sockets and other accessories checked at regular intervals. Think of it as like an MOT for your car.

Electrical Condition Reports

So, business owners are advised to call in a registered electrician to undertake periodic inspections of their premises at regular intervals as defined in the IET Wiring Regulations (typically around 5-7 years). The inspection will:

Find out if any electrical installations are overloaded.
Identify any potential electric shock risks and fire hazards.
Flag any defective, non-compliant electrical work.
Highlight any lack of earthing or bonding
(the two ways of preventing electrical shocks that are built into electrical installations).

At the end of the inspection, we will produce an electrical installation condition report (EICR) which records the results of the inspection, finds any parts of the electrical installation that do not meet the current IET Wiring Regulations and identifies any work needed to make the installation safe and compliant with the Regulations.

The report provides an important record of the installation at the time of the inspection and can be used as a baseline for future inspections.

We normally recommend the full inspection to our customers as it provides complete peace of mind that the installation has been tested and is safe to use. But we can carry out a simpler visual condition report, if preferred, provided the installation has been inspected and tested within the last five years.

Ensure you stay safe.

Inspection & Testing Intervals

Your electrics should be inspected and tested as a minimum every:

10 years for an owned home
5 years for a rented home
3 years for a caravan
1 year for a swimming pool / hot tub

Electrics should also be inspected when a property is being prepared for letting or before buying/selling a property.

  We needed a old extractor hood replaced which had been tiled in. The new one was nearly like for like but not quite. Chris and his colleague were punctual, courteous and very efficient. The end result is excellent and you wouldn't have known they had been there. Certainly our electricians of choice from now on. Highly recommended.

  What a terrific company and cannot recommend them highly enough. Chris Beeney was a delight to have on my property and never stopped working. The Nuaire Positive Input Ventilation Unit is a godsend. When I used to wipe down the mould it came back a few days later!   Wiped down the mould just after the unit was installed in my bungalow and three weeks later it has not come back. Cannot believe it!!! Please do not hesitate. If you have mould get this Unit. Worth every penny!! Thank you Juice Electrical Services. You are amazing. Debbie Brown.  Tenterden. Kent

  Extremely happy with the services provided by the whole team at Juice.

We found them online and asked them to replace our old bulky storage heaters with a modern smart electric heating system. Could not be happier with the results.

The team were friendly, professional and could not have been more helpful. They were understanding and accommodating whilst we dealt with our energy supplier and were back to finish the job as quickly as they could.

Would definitely recommend and will be using them for any electrical issues in the future.

  Since having new Windows installed last year our house started having condensation problems. I contacted Juice electrical services to have a PIV unit installed to hopefully sort the problem out. Chris was absolutely wonderful from start to finish and a real perfectionist. He carried the work out to an incredibly high standard and new exactly what to do. The unit has worked wonders for our home and I would strongly recommend one to anybody. The air in our home is so clean and the moisture problem has gone. I wouldn't hesitate contacting Chris to carry out more work for us he is a very hardworking nice bloke. Thank you so much Juice Electrical services you have made a massive difference to our home.
