Homeowners, landlords, and commercial property managers have a legal responsibility to ensure that anyone living or working in their properties is not at risk from electrical faults. Electrical safety should always be a key priority when carrying out property maintenance.
It is recommended, and in some cases legally required, to conduct regular electrical inspections to ensure all systems are functioning safely and efficiently. These inspections, known as EICRs (Electrical Installation Condition Reports), provide reassurance about the condition of an electrical system. Our EICR checks in Liverpool also identify any existing or potential issues and outline the most cost-effective solutions.
At Peninsula Electrical, we carry out comprehensive electrical inspections across Liverpool and provide an Electrical Installation Condition Report certificate upon completion. As proud members of the National Association of Professional Inspectors and Testers (NAPIT), our customers can be confident they are choosing a fully regulated, professional service provider. If the report raises any work that’s required, we can book you in with our qualified and expert Liverpool Electricians too.

What’s Included in an Electrical Installation Condition Report Certificate?
An EICR is an official document that records the results of an electrical inspection through various tests of a building’s electrical installation? Typically, an electrical installation condition report includes:
- General House Details: Including information like the property address, the owner/tenant’s details, the purpose of the inspection, any limitations (like inaccessible circuits or areas not tested), and the date of the inspection.
- Inspection Report Results: Covering visual checks, regulation verification, earthing and bonding adequacy, condition of the units, and electrical circuit accessibility.
- List of Tests: A list of tests carried on for the inspection, including continuity testing, insulation resistance, trip times and effectiveness, polarity checks, and the effectiveness of fault protection.
- Observations and Codes: A list (if any) of defects or hazards will be recorded with their appropriate classification codes (C1: Danger Present & Immediate Risk, C2: Potential Dangerous, Remedial Action Needed, C3: Improvement Recommended, No Immediate Threat, FI: Further Investigation Needed).
- Summary: We’ll provide a final summary which concludes whether the installation is satisfactory and safe for continual use, or unsatisfactory and in need of urgent or remedial work before continual use. We’ll also include a recommended date for the next inspection based on our findings.
