Electrical safety tests and PIRs near Balham
Regular electrical safety checks and audits are not just necessary for domestic properties but often a legal requirement for commercial premises. All installations will deteriorate due to wear and tear, damage, and environmental conditions and they need to be periodically tested to ensure they are in a safe condition to use.
An EICR is a safe and cost-effective way of ensuring an electrical installation in Balham or Tooting is safe. The EICR is the report itself that follows the inspection.
The frequency of EICRs can vary but here are the general guidelines:
- Owner-occupied homes: Every 10 years or with every change of occupancy
- Private or commercial rental properties: Every five years or with each change of tenancy
- Commercial and retail buildings: Every five years
- Educational facilities, such as schools and colleges: Every five years
- Leisure facilities, such as theatres: Every three years
- Construction sites: Every six months
- Industrial buildings: Every three years
Why SW17 electrical safety audits and commercial EICRs are so important

It will provide valuable peace of mind that the workplace is safe from the risk of fire and electrical shocks and ensure the building is compliant.

Any test will:
- Find any damage or wear and tear that may affect safety
- Record the results of the inspection to be kept until the next inspection.
- Highlight any parts of the installation that do not meet regulations
- Show parts of the system that could be improved to be made more energy efficient

What is an EICR and who needs one?
An EICR is a thorough assessment of any electrical installation and is needed for homes, businesses, and rental properties in Tooting. It is not a legal requirement in itself but many legal documents reference this as a way of satisfying their requirements. EICRs are a key part of electrical safety and they must always be completed by qualified electrical contractors.
Homeowners
It is recommended that homeowners in Tooting get an EICR completed every 10 years, or sooner (depending on any recommendation from an electrician). It is important to note that if you are moving property, you have a complete survey of the electrics done for your new home, so you know they are safe and that you will not be left with expensive electrical bills when you move.
Rental Properties
Under the Landlord and Tenants Act (1985) it is essential that any Balham electrical installation in a rental property is kept a safe condition throughout a tenancy. It is therefore recommended that an EICR is carried out at least every five years or with each change of tenancy
Businesses
Under the Health and Safety at Work Act (1974) and The Electricity at Work Regulations (1989), it is an employer’s responsibility to keep their employees safe and precautions must be taken to prevent the risk of injury from electricity. For most commercial properties in SW17, it is recommended that an EICR should be carried out at least every five years.
