FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Is a Commercial Electrical Safety Certificate a legal requirement?
Yes. Under the Electricity at Work Regulations 1989, employers and duty holders must ensure all electrical systems are safe and maintained to prevent danger. While the regulations do not specify an exact certificate, a Commercial EICR is the recognised method of proving compliance during audits, insurance checks and enforcement visits.
How often does a commercial property need an Electrical Safety Certificate?
Most commercial premises require a full EICR every 5 years. However, certain environments with higher electrical load or risk may require more frequent testing. Examples include warehouses, workshops, medical facilities, salons and hospitality venues. Your inspector will advise the correct interval for your specific site.
What does a Commercial Electrical Inspection include?
A commercial EICR assesses the condition and safety of the entire electrical installation. This includes distribution boards, wiring systems, circuits, sockets, protective devices, earthing arrangements and any equipment connected to the system. The report identifies defects, deterioration and hazards, and classifies issues that require immediate or recommended action.
What happens if my business fails the safety inspection?
If the inspection identifies dangerous issues, the installation is classed as non-compliant. For safety and legal reasons, remedial work must be carried out. Most insurers require that issues are addressed promptly to maintain coverage. Once fixed, your electrician will provide written confirmation that the installation now meets safety standards.
Who is qualified to carry out a Commercial Electrical Safety Certificate?
Commercial inspections must be completed by a competent, qualified electrician with inspection and testing experience in commercial environments. They should hold valid electrical qualifications, insurance, testing certification and practical experience with larger or more complex electrical systems.
