Back to topAs a business owner in Ragnall, you’re probably familiar with EICR inspections and how important they are in providing safe electrical installations to all occupants on site.
So what happens during an EICR? The team will conduct a visual inspection of the electrical fixtures such as the lighting, consumer unit, outlets and switches. We look for signs of wear and tear, faulty connections or loose wiring. We can also let you know if energy efficiency could be improved.
As most electrical wiring is concealed behind walls, flooring or ceilings, a range of electrical testing tools are used to conduct electrical checks. Tools such as a multifunction tester are used to measure RCD trip times and insulation resistance. Socket testers are used to give us the all clear for wiring polarity.
As NICEIC electricians, we actually use NICEIC approved software to record all measurements and readings from the inspection. This just makes completing the official EICR certificate faster and efficient.
During the inspection, faults we do find are associated with a classification code. A universal language understood by all approved electricians.
Classification codes:
C1- An extremely dangerous hazard which we endeavor to stabilise as a “quick fix” to make sure the property in Ragnall is safe. Hazards might include exposure of any live components.
C2- Potentially dangerous faults have been identified, this might include the lack of RCD protection. The issue must be remedied within 28 days.
C3- Improvements should be made but no immediate danger.
F1-Further investigation into the fault is required.
Outcomes of an EICR inspection can either be a satisfactory result where no C1 or C2 faults have been identified. What you don't want but isn't the end of the work is an unsatisfactory result. Any C1, C2 or FI faults will need remedial action which Stator Electrical Solutions can help you with.
An EICR is mandated in regulations such as The Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 and Electricity at Work Regulations 1989. Failure to comply with regulations could lead to fines up to £430,000 as well as legal penalties.
As a commercial business in Ragnell, you will benefit from an EICR as investigations can find wiring which has deteriorated over time and needs to be upgraded. Immediately reducing the risk of electrical fires or injury to individuals. EICRs have also flagged up inefficient energy consumption which we can help with too. For example, making simple changes to lighting to LED will help save you money on energy bills.
An EICR is a useful and necessary inspection which flags up electrical faults you might not notice.
