What happens on the day
Every testing visit follows a structured schedule to examine panels, test protective devices, and complete measurements without unnecessary operational downtime.
- Arrival and site walk-throughWe arrive on site, review the board layout with your facilities manager, verify which sub-mains and circuits are booked, and coordinate circuit isolation to minimise operational disruption.
- Visual and physical examinationEvery listed distribution board undergoes a visual inspection. Enclosures are opened to examine terminations, protective bonding conductors, switchgear condition, and signs of thermal stress.
- Instrumental circuit testingSpecialised test meters check earth loop impedance, insulation resistance, continuity, and RCD disconnection times across all accessible circuits, with every measurement recorded systematically.
- Paperwork handoverBefore concluding the visit, we walk you through preliminary observations, discuss any immediate safety concerns, and prepare the official NICEIC certification paperwork for your records.

WhatsAppHow often does a commercial premises require fixed wire testing?
Most commercial properties require a full inspection every five years, or upon a change of occupancy or tenancy. Industrial settings, warehouses, and environments exposed to moisture or dust may require more frequent testing schedules to maintain insurance validity and regulatory safety.
What is an electrical installation condition report?
An EICR is the official technical report detailing the safety, integrity, and compliance of a building's electrical distribution network. It inspects fixed wiring, distribution boards, breakers, and final circuits rather than portable plug-in appliances.
Will the power supply be interrupted during the inspection?
Yes, electrical circuits must be isolated temporarily to take precise instrument measurements safely. Testing is organised board by board to keep unaffected areas of the building operating whenever possible, or appointments can be arranged outside trading hours.
How is commercial fixed wire testing priced?
Pricing is calculated on the number of distribution boards and individual circuits present on site rather than on an hourly basis. Quotations are free, and any testing required outside normal operational hours is detailed before setting off.
Are repairs carried out during the testing visit?
Remedial repairs are not bundled into the testing inspection. If non-compliances or electrical defects are identified, they are recorded with standard condition codes and quoted separately item by item so you choose what to address and when.
