Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR)
As a homeowner, ensuring that your electrical system is safe and compliant with the latest regulations is crucial. At Burge Electrical, we offer comprehensive inspections, including Electrical Installation Condition Reports (EICR), to guarantee that your electrical system is up to code and meets safety standards.
What is an EICR?
An Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) is a type of inspection that assesses the condition of your electrical installation against the requirements of the UK Wiring Regulations (BS 7671). It ensures that your electrical system meets safety standards set by the regulatory bodies.

Why is an EICR important?
Code compliance inspections, including EICRs, are essential to identify any safety hazards or potential code violations in your electrical system. Early detection of hazards such as outdated wiring, inadequate grounding, overloaded circuits, or improper installation of electrical devices allows you to rectify these issues before they become a safety hazard. Additionally, a compliant electrical system can improve the safety and functionality of your home, and may even be required by insurance companies or local authorities.

What does an EICR inspection involve?
During an EICR, a licensed electrician will carry out a thorough inspection of your electrical system, including the electrical panel, wiring, switches, outlets, and fixtures. The inspection involves a visual examination, testing, and measurement of various electrical components to ensure that they meet the requirements set by the regulatory bodies.
If any issues are identified during the inspection, the electrician will provide you with a detailed report outlining the issues and recommending the necessary repairs or upgrades to bring your electrical system up to code.
