If you’re a homeowner, landlord or tenant in Barnet, having a valid Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) is now more important than ever. At RCD Electrical, we offer expert EICR inspections across Barnet, carried out by our NICEIC-approved electricians to ensure your property is legally compliant and electrically safe.
What is an EICR and Why is it Essential?
An EICR, or Electrical Installation Condition Report, is a formal assessment of a property’s electrical installations. It identifies any deterioration, defects, or potential risks within your electrical system. In Barnet—as across the UK—EICRs are a legal requirement for landlords every 5 years or at the start of new tenancies. For homeowners, it is strongly advised to have an EICR carried out every 10 years.
At RCD Electrical, our fully qualified team ensures a thorough inspection of your consumer unit (fuse box), sockets, lighting, wiring, earthing, and bonding to make sure everything meets current BS 7671 standards. Upon completion, you receive a detailed report outlining whether the installation is satisfactory or if any remedial work is required.
