A fixed wiring installation degrades quietly — behind sockets, in loft voids, inside consumer units. We inspect, test and code every circuit against BS 7671, then fix what the report flags, on a schedule matched to your property type.
Most people have never seen an EICR carried out. Here is every stage of the process, so there are no surprises on the day.

Every inspection, code and remedial repair is carried out and certified against the specific standard your property type is held to.
The IET's national wiring standard — every EICR is inspected and coded against its requirements.
Requires a valid EICR at every private rented property in England, renewed at least every 5 years.
Electrical hazards form part of the statutory risk assessment local authorities use to assess rented homes.
Requires fixed electrical systems in any workplace to be maintained to prevent danger.
Deteriorating fixed wiring is a recognised fire risk — EICR findings feed directly into your fire risk assessment.
Certain remedial electrical work identified in an EICR must be notified under Part P before completion.
BS 7671 sets a strict coding system for anything an inspection finds. Open each code below to see what it means, typical examples, and the action required.
Immediate — made safe on site the same day. The installation is unsafe to use until resolved.
Urgent repair without delay, followed by a retest before the installation is confirmed satisfactory.
Not a failure — an EICR can still be satisfactory with C3s. Worth addressing to bring the installation up to current standards.
Investigate without delay. An FI makes a report unsatisfactory until the underlying issue is resolved.
The right interval depends on how the installation is used and by whom — we scope to the sector, not a generic minimum.
Recommended interval, or at change of occupancy
Mandatory under the Electrical Safety Standards (PRS) Regs 2020
Mandatory, tied to licence renewal in most boroughs
Communal installation plus individual flat inspections
Interval confirmed by risk assessment, typically 5 years
Shorter interval given fire load and equipment duty
Kitchens and workshops inspected on the shorter end
High-risk locations inspected annually per HTM guidance
Guest areas and kitchens on a shorter cycle than back-of-house
Full-block inspection tied to academic year scheduling
A Polarity EICR is a consultancy-grade report, not a bare certificate — everything you need to understand, budget and act on your installation.
A walk-through of the report format — the certificate, schedules, evidence and remedial proof. The samples below are illustrative of the layout, not real client data.
Property, client and inspection details.
Every finding, coded C1–C3 / FI.
Test results for every circuit.
Hotspots located under load.
Each defect photographed and coded.
Documented evidence of the fix.
Issued once all defects are cleared.
Illustrative samples of the report format — not real client data.
Fixed installations age in decades, not years. Pick the level of cover that matches how much of that lifecycle you want us to manage.

Private rented properties in England need a valid EICR at least every 5 years under the Electrical Safety Standards (PRS) Regulations 2020. Owner-occupied homes have no legal requirement but a 10-year interval is generally recommended; higher-risk sectors like healthcare are inspected annually.
An unsatisfactory result means at least one C1, C2 or FI code was recorded. C1 items are made safe immediately where possible; C2 and FI items need remedial work and a retest before the installation is confirmed satisfactory.
Only C1 and C2 codes (and unresolved FI items) create a legal obligation to act. C3 items are recommendations for improvement, not a failure, though many landlords choose to address them at the same visit.
No — an EICR reports on the condition of an existing installation. Part P certification applies to new notifiable electrical work, which may follow from remedial items an EICR identifies.
