Our EICR Fixed Wire Testing Process
We’ll identify and assess any and all potential issues in your electrical installations, detecting problems before they become major safety hazards. To avoid disruptions to businesses relying on continuous operations, we’ve developed a structured yet flexible process that ensures your fixed wire testing services are carried out with minimal downtime and actionable results.
Initial Consultation and Planning
We assess your electrical systems, determine the required fixed wire testing frequency, and ensure you understand relevant electrical fixed wire testing regulations. Testing is scheduled at a time that minimises disruption to your business.
Inspection and Testing
Our engineers conduct a thorough fixed electrical wiring testing assessment, visually inspecting key installations before performing fixed wire electrical testing. We check insulation resistance, earth fault loop impedance, and circuit integrity. If power isolation is needed, we coordinate with you to avoid unnecessary downtime.
EICR Report and Compliance Guidance
We provide a detailed Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) grading any issues:
- C1 (Danger present) – Immediate action required.
- C2 (Potentially dangerous) – Urgent remedial work needed.
- C3 (Improvement recommended) – Non-compliant but not immediately hazardous.
Results are explained clearly so you know what steps to take for compliance.
Remedial Work and Support
If faults are found, we notify you immediately and offer expert remedial solutions to restore compliance. We also provide all necessary documentation for insurance and safety records.
Ongoing Compliance
We track your testing schedule and send reminders when your next EICR fixed wire testing is due, keeping you compliant. Our team remains available for fixed electrical testing, PAT testing, emergency lighting checks and ongoing maintenance.

How Often Should Fixed Wire Testing Be Done?
When it comes to fixed wire testing frequency, variables such as your property type and usage will need to be considered. While you may think it’s sufficient to only test your electrical wiring on occasion, more regular checks may be required to maintain safety and compliance.
- Commercial fixed wire testing – Every 5 years is typically recommended for most commercial properties and businesses. However, more frequent testing may be required if the property is used for high-risk activities or has complex electrical systems, such as those found in manufacturing facilities and warehouses with heavy machinery.
- Domestic fixed wire testing – Domestic and residential properties should undergo EICR fixed wire testing every 10 years or so, or when there is a change of occupancy. For older properties, more frequent testing might be required, especially if the electrical installation is outdated.
- Landlords and rental properties – Fixed wire testing frequency for rental properties should be every 5 years to ensure tenant safety and compliance with the UK regulations.
By maintaining the right testing frequency, you reduce the risk of dangerous electrical faults, improve safety and keep your property in line with current electrical fixed wire testing regulations.
