From our initial meeting and throughout his attendance Andy presented an utterly friendly and engaging manner. Equally, his professionalism shone through his steadfast approach to the work in hand concerning the re-wiring of my home. Communication was consistently clear and helpful eg keeping me informed of developments and ongoing progress, very re-assuring indeed.
Special thanks, also, to Steve's earnest contribution: not only for his positive and courteous attitude but also the due diligence and care consistently applied in terms of cleaning up after each stage in the whole process. Much admired and greatly appreciated.
Overall, I am very pleased with the entire experience and, as such, would happily recommend TM Hughes and Son to others.

Andy made re wiring our entire home easy and completed it within a quick timeframe. After a free quote, we worked out the plan for the wiring. Where some things were less possible, Andy called me and discussed. If you’re looking for someone who knows what they’re doing, this is your guy 👌. Cheers again.

Understanding Electrical Safety for Landlords

Every landlord has a legal obligation to ensure the electrical safety of their rented properties.

This involves ensuring that all electrical installations, such as light fittings, sockets, and consumer units, are safe at the beginning of the tenancy and maintained in a safe condition throughout.

This obligation is not just a legal requirement but a crucial step in preventing potential electrical accidents, including fires and shocks, which could result in severe harm, damage to your property or even loss of life.

Under the Electrical Safety Standards in the Private Rented Sector (England) Regulations 2020, landlords in England are required to have the electrical installations in their rented properties inspected and tested by a qualified person at the start of each new tenancy or every five years (whichever comes first)

They must also provide a copy of the Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) to their tenants and the local authority if requested.

Non-compliance with these regulations is a serious offence and can result in significant fines. But beyond legal and financial implications, neglecting electrical safety can put tenants at risk.

The Electrical Inspection

During an electrical inspection, a qualified NICEIC registered Electrician thoroughly examines the property’s electrical system.

This involves visually inspecting the installations for visible signs of wear, damage, or non-compliance with safety standards.

The Electrician also tests the system, checking the safety devices, ensuring adequate earthing and bonding, and identifying any overloaded circuits.

They look for potential electric shock risks or fire hazards and assess if there are appropriate identification labels and notices.

Any defects in electrical work are noted. The findings are then documented in an Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR), which includes recommended actions for rectification.

An EICR (Electrical Installation Condition Report) is issued after the inspection.

The EICR

The EICR, or Electrical Installation Condition Report, is a document that provides a detailed assessment of the electrical installations on a property.

Following an inspection, a qualified electrician provides a report outlining the condition of the electrical installations and detailing any potential safety concerns identified during the inspection.

The EICR includes information about the state of the property’s wiring, the safety of the electrical installations, and any potential fire hazards or risks of electric shock.

If any defects or non-compliances are found, these are listed in the EICR, along with recommendations for remedial actions to rectify the issues.

Landlords are legally required to provide a copy of the EICR to their tenants, letting agents and local authorities if requested.

The EICR is more than just a legal requirement. It is a document that reassures tenants about the safety of the property they live in and guides landlords to maintain the electrical safety of their properties.
