Electrical safety is paramount for every homeowner. Faulty wiring or outdated systems pose a significant risk of fire, shock, and other hazards. Fortunately, an Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) can provide peace of mind and ensure your home meets current safety standards.
What is an EICR?
An EICR, sometimes called a landlord certificate, is a detailed report on the condition of your property’s electrical system. It’s conducted by a qualified electrician who visually inspects and tests various components, including:
- Wiring
- Fuse boards
- Sockets and switches
- Earthing and bonding
- Appliances
Who Needs an EICR?
In Leeds, EICRs are mandatory for:
- Landlords: Every five years for new tenancies and every 5 years for existing tenancies.
- Homeowners selling their property: To comply with estate agent and buyer requirements.
- Homeowners concerned about electrical safety: To proactively identify and address potential issues.
Benefits of an EICR:
- Peace of mind: Knowing your home’s electrical system is safe and up-to-date.
- Reduced risk of electrical fires and shocks: Early detection of potential hazards prevents accidents.
- Insurance compliance: Most insurance companies require an EICR for older properties.
- Increased property value: A valid EICR can make your property more attractive to buyers.
