What Is Domestic Electrical Testing?
Domestic electrical testing is a detailed inspection of the electrics in a property to assess the condition of the electrical systems and confirm they meet current electrical safety standards.
During testing, our electricians inspect:
Fixed wiring and cables
Fuse box / consumer unit
Earthing and bonding
Sockets, switches, and accessories
Electrical installations and connections
This process identifies wear, damage, outdated wiring, and potential safety hazards before they become serious problems.
Electrical testing is recommended for all homes, and it is a legal requirement for landlords with rental properties.
Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR)
What Is an EICR?
An Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) is the formal document issued after an electrical inspection. It confirms whether the electrical installation is:
Safe
Compliant
Requires remedial work
Our Manchester EICR inspections follow strict UK safety standards and provide clear, actionable results.
What Does an EICR Inspection Include?
Our electricians carry out a full inspection and testing process, including:
Consumer unit / fuse board checks
Fixed wire testing
Wiring condition and continuity
Fuse box safety and protection devices
Identification of fire and shock risks
Once complete, you’ll receive a clear EICR report with observations coded as:
C1 – Danger present (urgent action required)
C2 – Potentially dangerous
C3 – Improvement recommended
If remedial work is needed, we explain everything clearly and can complete the repairs efficiently.
EICR for Landlords & Rental Properties in Manchester
Landlord Legal Requirements
If you own or manage a rental property, an EICR is a legal requirement. Landlords must:
Provide a valid electrical safety certificate

Properties managed by letting agents
Homes owned by property managers across Manchester
Our team works closely with landlords and property professionals to ensure full electrical compliance with minimal disruption.
What Happens If Your Property Fails an EICR?
A failed EICR doesn’t mean panic—it means action.
If issues are identified:
We clearly explain the condition of the electrical system
Outline required remedial electrical work
Carry out repairs quickly and safely
Re-test and issue updated EICR certificates
Our in-house team can complete remedial work efficiently, ensuring your property becomes fully compliant without delays or unnecessary costs.
Why Electrical Testing Is Essential for Electrical Safety
Regular electrical testing:
Reduces fire risk caused by faulty wiring
Protects tenants, homeowners, and visitors
Prevents sudden electrical failures

Many electrical faults develop silently over time. A professional inspection ensures every electrical system in your property is safe and reliable.
