EICR Testing for Homeowners, Businesses & Landlords Bedfordshire
Local EICR Safety Certificate Specialists in Bedfordshire
An Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) is a critical document generated after a thorough assessment of electrical systems, applicable to commercial, industrial or residential settings.
Conducting electrical inspections is crucial for any business, particularly those with high public footfall.
Landlords must ensure their properties are safe and secure for tenants. Under the Electrical Safety Standards in the Private Rented Sector Regulations 2020, only qualified electricians are authorised to evaluate and certify the electrical installations in your property in Bedfordshire with an EICR.
Scheduling regular inspections by our experienced electricians at Butlers Electrical Limited, through an EICR is an effective and economical method to ensure your electrical systems meet current safety standards.
What is the Purpose of EICR Certificates?
An Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) certificate is essential after setting up an electrical system to ensure that a building's electrical infrastructure is safe and functional. Our team of certified electricians in Bedfordshire performs these inspections to identify any potential issues with your system, enabling corrective actions before the premises are rented, sold or used.
Here are the key benefits of obtaining an EICR for your property:
- Legal Compliance: The Electrical Safety Standards in the Private Rented Sector Regulations 2020 mandate that landlords in England adhere to the electrical safety protocols specified in the 18th edition of the Wiring Regulations. This requires a qualified electrician to evaluate your electrical systems and issue an EICR.
- Insurance Proof: Should an electrical fault cause damage to your property, the EICR serves as evidence that you have maintained regular checks, thereby supporting claims for insurance compensation.
- Cost Savings: An inspection by a trained EICR electrician in Bedfordshire not only ensures safety but can also be economically beneficial. The EICR identifies issues such as overloaded circuits or inefficient appliances that are using excessive energy, thus costing more money. The report provides recommendations for making your electrical systems more efficient, potentially uncovering cost-saving opportunities that might otherwise go unnoticed.

FAQs – EICR Services
We understand you might have questions about our solutions. To make things easier, we've gathered a list of the most frequently asked questions and provided clear answers.
An Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) is a document generated after a thorough inspection and testing of the electrical installations in a property. It assesses the safety of these systems and ensures they comply with current standards.
Only a qualified and competent electrician or electrical contractor registered with an accreditation service, such as NICEIC or NAPIT, should perform an EICR. This ensures that the inspection and testing are carried out to the highest standard.
The report might conclude that the electrical installation is ‘Satisfactory’, meaning no remedial work is required, or ‘Unsatisfactory’, indicating that defects or deviations from the standard were found. If unsatisfactory, the report will detail necessary corrective actions.
If your EICR is unsatisfactory, it’s crucial to follow the electrician’s recommendations and arrange for necessary repairs or improvements. This is important to bring your installations up to standard and ensure safety.
During an EICR, a qualified electrician will check the condition of the electrical installations against the UK standard for the safety of electrical installations, BS 7671. This includes examining circuits, protective devices, earthing, bonding and overall installation safety.
You need an EICR to ensure that all electrical systems and installations in your property are safe, not posing any risk to occupants or visitors and comply with legal requirements. It’s also essential for landlords, commercial property owners and sometimes required for insurance purposes.
For rental properties, an EICR is required every five years or with each change of tenancy. For homeowners, it is generally recommended every ten years. However, the frequency can vary depending on the usage and age of the installation.
