What Is Covered During Your Residential EICR London Inspection?
A certified Residential EICR London condition report evaluates the safety, suitability, and deterioration of your property's electrical infrastructure through visual inspections and calibrated instrument diagnostics.
1. Consumer Unit & Fuse Box
Thorough inspection of circuit breakers (MCBs), Residual Current Devices (RCDs), trip response times, surge protection (SPDs), and fire-rated enclosure standards.
2. Fixed Wiring & Insulation
Live and dead diagnostic testing of hidden conductors to evaluate insulation resistance, earth fault loop impedance, and prevent electrical fire risks.
3. Sockets, Switches & Fixtures
Physical and electrical testing of all reachable socket outlets, wall switches, and pendant light fittings for mechanical damage, overheating, and correct polarity.
4. Earthing & Protective Bonding
Verification of continuous earthing paths to your incoming mains, including mandatory protective cross-bonding to metal gas lines and incoming water mains.
5. Bathrooms & High-Risk Zones
Special location safety verification in kitchens, bathrooms, and wet zones, verifying ingress protection (IP ratings) and safe socket-to-water clearances.
6. Digital Compliance Reporting
Full compilation of circuit schedules, max demand logs, test instrument calibrations, and certified engineer sign-offs delivered in a verifiable PDF format.
Decoding EICR Observation Codes
UK electrical reports categorize observed safety hazards using standardized regulatory codes:
Danger Present
Immediate risk of injury or electrical shock. Live bare wires or severely damaged equipment requiring urgent make-safe action.
Potentially Dangerous
Significant defect that could lead to danger if another fault occurs (e.g., missing earthing bonding or absent RCD protection).
Improvement Advised
Non-compliance with newer 18th Edition rules, but safe. Does not fail your report or breach 2020 Landlord Regulations.
Further Investigation
Unidentified circuit anomaly or inaccessible distribution board that prevents full safety clearance without intrusive tracing.
