EICR Testing & Compliance

01.
About.

Electrical Installation Condition Reports (EICRs) are essential for keeping your property safe, compliant, and legally protected.

Swiftsure Electrical provides thorough, BS 7671‑aligned EICR inspections for commercial, industrial, public‑sector and domestic environments across Kent, London and the Southeast.

Our qualified engineers deliver clear reporting, practical recommendations, and a safety‑first approach you can rely on.

02.
Coverage

An EICR assesses the condition of your electrical installation and identifies issues that could present a risk to people, property, or business continuity. During your inspection, our engineers check:


  • Condition of wiring, circuits and protective devices
  • Earthing and bonding arrangements
  • Consumer units, distribution boards and switchgear
  • Deterioration, defects or non‑compliances
  • Overloading, overheating and fire‑risk indicators
  • Safety of fixed equipment and accessories

Every report includes clear coding (C1, C2, C3, FI) so you understand exactly what requires urgent action, recommended improvements, or further investigation.
