What happens on the day

Repairs follow a disciplined sequence so that business activities continue safely while remedial work is carried out on distribution boards and final circuits.

  • Reviewing observation schedules on siteWe meet the facility contact, review the original inspection report, and inspect the specific distribution board, containment run, or accessory identified by the inspector. This confirms the exact physical location of each coded defect prior to beginning any physical work.
  • Safe isolation and component replacementThe target circuit is safely isolated and locked off at the local board. We remove the defective accessory, re-terminate loose wiring, replace substandard switchgear, or install correct earthing and bonding conductors in line with British electrical standards.
  • Retesting and handover paperworkOnce physical repairs are complete, we conduct continuity, insulation resistance, and trip-time testing on the altered circuits. An electrical minor works certificate or electrical installation certificate is prepared, documenting the resolved observation numbers for your compliance file.

Questions about EICR remedial work in Southampton

Still have a question?

What information is needed to price commercial EICR remedials?

We require a copy of the existing electrical installation condition report, specifically the observation sheets showing the C1, C2, and C3 codes, together with the distribution board schedule and circuit charts.

Do all observation codes need to be repaired?

C1 and C2 codes must be rectified for an installation to achieve satisfactory status. C3 codes are recommendations for improvement that do not prevent a compliant assessment, though they can be repaired during the same attendance if requested.

Can remedial works be carried out outside normal working hours?

Yes. Work outside standard trading hours is available to avoid power interruptions during trading. An out-of-hours rate applies, and this is confirmed before work begins.

Does clearing the codes result in a brand new EICR?

No. The remedial attendance provides an electrical minor works certificate or installation certificate verifying the specific repairs and retests. These certificates sit alongside the original EICR to show compliance until the next full inspection is due.

Is MCI Electrical registered to certify commercial remedial repairs?

Yes. MCI Electrical is NICEIC registered, ensuring all commercial testing, equipment upgrades, and corrective paperwork align with current national wiring regulations.
