About Our Electrical Safety Certificates Service in Framingham Pigot

There is no document called an electrical safety certificate. The phrase covers four different bits of paperwork, and which one you need depends entirely on what has been done to the installation.

  • Electrical Installation Certificate (EIC) for a new installation, a new circuit, or a replacement consumer unit.
  • Minor Electrical Installation Works Certificate for an addition or alteration that does not extend to a new circuit, such as an extra socket-outlet on an existing ring.
  • Building Regulations Compliance Certificate for notifiable work under Part P.
  • Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) for an existing installation. This is the one landlords are legally required to hold, and the one estate agents and lenders usually mean.

Notifiable work in England is a new circuit, a consumer unit replacement, or an addition or alteration to a circuit in a special location, meaning a room containing a bath or shower, a swimming pool or a sauna heater. Adding a socket-outlet or a lighting point to an existing circuit is not notifiable. It still needs a Minor Works certificate and it still has to meet BS 7671.

Frequently Asked Questions

I have been asked for a landlord electrical safety certificate. What is that?

An EICR. There is no legal document by that name. Under the Electrical Safety Standards in the Private Rented Sector (England) Regulations 2020, rented homes must be inspected and tested at least every five years by a qualified and competent person. Existing tenants get a copy within 28 days, new tenants get one before they move in, and the local housing authority gets one within seven days of asking.

The report has C3s on it. Do I have to fix them?

No. The 28-day remedial duty applies to C1, C2 and FI observations only. A C3 is an improvement recommendation and carries no legal requirement to act. Landlords get upsold on C3 work constantly, so it is worth knowing which code sits against each item.

Do I need a certificate for one extra socket?

You get a Minor Electrical Installation Works Certificate. Adding a socket-outlet or a light to an existing circuit outside a special location is not notifiable work, so there is no building control involvement and no Building Regulations Compliance Certificate. The work still has to comply with BS 7671 and still gets tested.

Can you certify work someone else carried out?

No. Whoever designs, constructs, inspects and tests the work signs for it, and nobody can honestly certify work they did not do. What we can do is inspect and test what is there and report on its condition as an EICR. That is the correct route when previous work has no paperwork behind it.
