Electrical Testing Coventry

Electrical testing is a vital procedure to ensure the safety of employees, customers and tenants.

All electrical installations deteriorate with age and use. They should therefore be inspected and tested at regular intervals to keep checking whether they are in a satisfactory condition for continued use. Such safety tests are commonly referred to as 'periodic inspection and testing'. 

Periodic inspection and testing should only be carried out by electrically competent persons, such as registered electricians. They will check the condition of the electrics against the UK standard for the safety of electrical installations.

Checking our electrical appliances are in full working service keeps us compliant with many Health and Safety regulations, such as “The health and safety at work Act 1974”.

Visual checks of our electrical equipment should be conducted frequently, any damage to wiring should be repaired by a person with the necessary skills, knowledge and experience to process this work safely, CSE can provide this to ease your mind.

We need to be aware that a wide range of voltages can be dangerous for different reasons. Low voltages can produce enough of a spark to ignite an explosion, CSE can ensure that your electrical equipment is fit for purpose and safe for all to use.

An initial verification inspection and survey will reveal if any circuits or electrical equipment are being overloaded, locate any potential electrical shock risks and fire hazards in an installation, identify any defective DIY electrical work, or highlight any lack of earthing or bonding.

Once completed you will be issued with an Electrical Condition Report (EICR).

An EICR, should only by carried out by a fully qualified and competent electrician. Once the report has been completed, the installer will issue a certificate on software which is recognised by our governing body NAPIT.
