What Is an EICR Certificate?
An Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) assesses the safety of your property’s electrical systems. It identifies any damage, defects or non-compliance with UK regulations.
An EICR is essential for landlords, businesses and anyone wanting to ensure their property is safe and up to standard.
Why You Need an EICR
For landlords, it’s a legal requirement to provide a valid EICR to tenants every five years or at change of tenancy. Businesses also need regular inspections to meet health and safety obligations.
A professional EICR helps:
- Prevent electrical fires and shocks
- Identify hidden faults before they become dangerous
- Prove compliance with UK safety standards

- Testing of circuits, sockets, lighting and consumer units
- Clear, easy-to-understand report
- Identification of C1 (danger present), C2 (potential danger) and C3 (recommendation) issues
