If you own, manage, or lease a commercial property, you are legally responsible for:
-
Ensuring electrical installations are safe
-
Preventing electrical hazards and faults
-
Protecting employees, customers, and visitors
Failure to carry out regular electrical inspections can result in legal action, invalid insurance, fines, or serious safety incidents. An up-to-date EICR provides documented proof that you have taken reasonable steps to meet electrical safety standards.

What Is a Commercial EICR?
A Commercial EICR is a formal electrical safety check designed to assess the condition of fixed electrical installations within commercial properties. This includes:
-
Electrical wiring
-
Distribution boards
-
Sockets, switches, and electrical accessories
-
Fixed electrical systems and circuits
The purpose of an EICR inspection is to confirm whether your electrical installation is safe for continued use, compliant with current wiring regulations (BS 7671), and free from dangerous faults that could lead to electrical failure, fire, or injury.
Unlike domestic inspections, commercial EICRs are more detailed due to higher electrical loads, complex systems, and increased usage within business environments.
Commercial EICR vs PAT Testing
Many business owners ask whether PAT testing replaces an EICR. The answer is no.
-
EICR – Tests the fixed electrical installation (wiring, circuits, boards)
-
PAT Testing – Tests portable electrical appliances
Both play an important role in maintaining electrical safety, but they serve different purposes. For full compliance, many businesses require both services.
