Landlord Electrical Safety Certificate
EICR Testing
As a Landlord you are legally required to ensure all electrical equipment is safe.
It is your legal duty to ensure all electrical equipment in your property is safe and maintained throughout the whole tenancy. This responsibility covers all lighting fixtures, all plug sockets, as well as all electrical wiring.
An electrical installation includes all fixed electrical equipment that is supplied through your property’s electricity meter. Just like other features of your property, electrical installations deteriorate and face wear and tear, so need to be properly maintained.
Failure to do so can lead to prosecution and also invalidates most landlord insurance policies. For the safety of your tenants and your business, it is important to get regularly a Landlord Electrical Safety Certificate.
