Electrical Installation Condition Reports in Sussex
At J Kirby Electrical, we provide professional EICR services across East and West Sussex. Whether you’re a landlord, homeowner or business owner, our thorough safety inspections help ensure your electrics are safe, compliant and up to modern standards to give you complete peace of mind.
What is Involved in an EICR?
An electrical installation condition report (EICR) is a detailed check of your electrical system. It focuses on your fixed electrical installations to identify faults, any substantial wear and anything potentially dangerous such as fire hazards or electric shock.
Our qualified electrician will inspect key parts of your installation, including:
- Consumer units (fuse boards)
- Fixed wiring and circuits
- Plug sockets and lighting
- Fixed electrical appliances like showers and extractor fans
After the inspection, you’ll receive a straightforward electrical safety report outlining the condition of your system. If any issues are found, we explain them clearly and recommend any necessary remedial work.
Who Needs EICR Services?
Our EICR services in Sussex are highly recommended for:
- Landlords – The Electrical Safety Standards in the Private Rented Sector and Social Rented Sector (England) Regulations 2020 means it is a legal requirement for landlords to have an inspection carried out by a professional every five years for any rental property.
- Businesses – The Electricity at Work Regulations 1989 outlines how business owners must have a valid EICR for legal compliance, insurance validity and employee protection.
- Homeowners – Ideal for older homes or when buying or selling to make sure the property is safe. It validates home insurance and helps to avoid costly emergency repairs by identifying potential hazards early.
Regular checks help ensure your electrics remain safe and up to standard.
