What is an EICR?

EICR stands for Electrical Installation Condition Report, it is a comprehensive inspection and assessment to check for danger within your property’s electrical system and installations.  EICRs should only be carried out by certified electricians who are fully insured, qualified and experienced to undertake such an important safety task.  Most electrical fires in the home caused by faulty appliances or wiring could have been avoided if the property owner had conducted a regular EICR inspection.

An EICR inspection requires several tests to be performed on the electrical systems of your property. Among the tests we perform at Certified Electricians London Ltd are:

  • Earth measurement reading
  • bonding test
  • continuity of CPC
  • continuity of ring
  • insulation resistance
  • polarity test
  • earth fault loop impedance
  • RCD test
  • visual circuit observation

Our certified electricians are local professionals with decades of experience in identifying faults in electrical systems in Hackney on the whole spectrum of properties from new builds to older Grade II listed buildings in the area.


How long will an EICR take and how much will it cost?

The length of time it takes to complete your inspection will vary depending on the size of the property.  For example an inspection on a three bedroom property in E8 will take on average approximately 3-4 hours. We have a competitive and transparent pricing system for EICRs which can be found below.  If you would like further information or have any questions please get in touch, we are happy to talk the process through with you and help in any way we can.

This observation means “Danger present. Risk of injury. Immediate remedial action required”

This code denotes an issue that presents an immediate threat to the safety of occupants, guests, and customers on the premises

Code C2

This observation means “Potentially dangerous, urgent remedial action required”

The homeowner is at risk of shock

Code C3

This observation appearing in an EICR report means “Improvement recommended”
