The Importance Of An Electrical Installation Condition Report An Electrical
Installation Condition Report EICR ) is simply a comprehensive check of the
wiring of your electrical installation and appliances. As a landlord, you have
a duty of care when it comes to your tenants. Landlords are responsible for the
maintenance of appliances supplied within the property, and ensuring that the
person who carries out the checks is a registered electrician. All portable
appliances can also be PAT
tested
Electrical Installation Condition Reports are not just a
legal obligation, but they are also very important in ensuring your electrical
appliances are safe to use for tenants. Without the appropriate measures, your
appliances, wires and sockets can potentially cause an accidental shock or a house
fire. If your report highlights any faults, the issue must be investigated and
solved by a qualified electrician within 28 days of the inspection. Landlords
must then provide written confirmation to tenants to say the issues have been
resolved and safety standards have been met, and provide a copy of the
certificate.
If you fail to check and maintain electrical systems and
appliances, insurance companies can use this to refuse your claims if the fault
is electrical. You could also face a fine of up to £30,000.
