Property owners and employers are legally responsible for preventing electrical safety issues and ensuring their systems are properly maintained. Under UK* and ROI** law, property owners must maintain all electrical systems and keep proof of regular electrical safety checks by a ‘Competent Person’.
Formal electricity inspections should be performed according to the frequency outlined in the Wiring Regulations (typically every 5 years for commercial properties and every 3 years for industrial properties). In the event of an electrical incident, evidence will be required to demonstrate how and when the electrical system was formally inspected.
​
Our electrical fixed wire testing and inspection services help property owners, landlords and facilities managers ensure compliance with regulations and reduce wiring risks. We provide expert fixed electrical wire testing through our network of certified electrical inspectors, who are ‘Competent Persons’ under the regulations.
