As of 1st January 2023, the UK government has introduced new legislation regarding Electrical Installation Condition Reports (EICRs). This change aims to improve electrical safety in homes and workplaces, reducing the risk of electrical shocks, fires, and other hazards.
The new legislation requires landlords to ensure that all electrical installations in their rental properties are inspected and tested every five years. This includes not only the electrical wiring but also the electrical appliances and equipment. The report must be carried out by a qualified electrician who is registered with a competent person scheme, such as the NICEIC or ELECSA.
The report must be provided to the tenant within 28 days of the inspection, and it must include a schedule of defects, which outlines any work that needs to be done to ensure the electrical installation is safe.
The new legislation also requires that all electrical installations in new-build homes must be inspected and tested before the property is occupied. This includes not only the electrical wiring but also the electrical appliances and equipment.
The government has stated that the new legislation is designed to improve electrical safety and reduce the risk of electrical shocks, fires, and other hazards.
It is essential for landlords and homeowners to understand the new legislation and ensure that their electrical installations are safe and compliant. Failure to comply with the new legislation can result in fines and penalties.
