An Electrical Installation Condition Report, sometimes known as a Landlord Electrical Safety Certificate, is a detailed assessment of a property’s fixed electrical system. The purpose of an EICR is to identify deterioration, unsafe installations, poor workmanship or any risk that could endanger those living, working or visiting the property.

An EICR in South East London involves a full inspection of your wiring, consumer unit, sockets, lighting circuits, earthing and bonding arrangements, fixed equipment and safety devices. These inspections must only be carried out by qualified, insured and competent electricians who understand both older and newly installed systems.

At Certified Electricians London Ltd, we complete all required tests including earth measurement readings, bonding tests, continuity of CPC, ring continuity tests, insulation resistance, polarity checks, earth fault loop impedance, RCD performance testing and detailed visual assessments of every accessible circuit. With decades of experience, our team understands the electrical setups commonly found in South East London’s diverse range of properties.

The time required for an EICR varies depending on the size and layout of your property. As a guide, a typical three-bedroom home will take approximately 3–4 hours to inspect fully. Larger properties or those with more complex circuits may take longer. Our pricing is straightforward, competitive and listed clearly at the bottom of this page. If you need help estimating the duration for your specific property, we’re always available to provide guidance.

Electrical installations naturally deteriorate with age, so regular inspections are essential to ensure safety and compliance. The recommended testing intervals are:

• Domestic Property: 10 years
• Rented Houses: 5 years (legal requirement)
• Other Property Types: Please enquire

For landlords, an EICR is legally required every five years and must be carried out by a competent person. Without a valid certificate, a rental property cannot be legally let. Even for homeowners, an EICR helps identify faults early, reducing the risk of electrical fires, shocks or expensive future repairs.
