What is an EICR?

An EICR is a formal inspection and test of a property’s fixed electrical installation. It is designed to identify damage, deterioration, defects, unsafe conditions and areas where the installation may no longer meet the standard expected for safe continued use. An EICR inspection typically covers:

Wiring and circuits

Consumer units and distribution boards

Sockets, switches and light fittings

Earthing and bonding

Fixed electrical equipment and connected circuits

Signs of wear, overloading or poor previous workmanship.

For commercial clients, this service is often referred to as fixed wire testing. For landlords and homeowners, it is more commonly described as an electrical installation condition report or EICR certificate.

Landlord EICRs and rented property compliance

If you let out residential property, keeping the electrical installation properly inspected and documented is essential. We help landlords, letting agents and property managers arrange landlord EICRs with clear reporting and practical next steps where any remedial work is required.

Our service is designed to make the process straightforward. We can support with:

Individual rental properties

Managed portfolios

Change-of-tenancy checks

Periodic EICR testing

Remedial works following an unsatisfactory report

Associated electrical upgrades where needed

We understand that landlords and agents often need more than a report alone. They need a contractor who communicates clearly, turns documentation around promptly and can help move matters forward if defects are identified.

Need advice on an EICR outcome?

If you need help arranging an EICR inspection, understanding a report, or planning remedial works after fixed wire testing, call 0800 002 5025 or email enquiries@vitalphase.co.uk.

Commercial EICR inspections and fixed wire testing

For commercial premises, the condition of the fixed electrical installation has a direct effect on safety, reliability and day-to-day operations. Our commercial EICR inspections and fixed wire testing services are suited to offices, retail units, hospitality venues, educational settings, care environments, industrial premises and managed buildings.

We plan the inspection around the demands of the site wherever possible, with close attention to:

Operational disruption

Site access

Testing priorities

Clear labelling and documentation

Coordination with maintenance or upgrade works

Practical recommendations rather than vague reporting.

Where required, we can also advise on the next stage, whether that involves remedial works, a consumer unit upgrade, rewiring or wider electrical installation and maintenance support.
