I need a full inspection and test of the electrical installation (Electrical Installation Condition Report – EICR) for a property
An Electrical Installation Condition Report will include the results of a visual inspection and the results of testing all circuits in the property. This will give you more information about the condition of the installation and in particular any damage to hidden cables or joints. Every domestic property should be fully inspected and tested every 10 years as a minimum, a label on your fuse board should tell you when this was last done.
The cost of an Electrical Installation Condition Report is £150 + VAT for the first 6 circuits then £15 + VAT for each additional circuit. To see how many circuits you have, add up the number of circuit breakers in your fuse board.
I would like a Visual Condition Report (VCR) for a property
A visual condition report will include the results of a visual inspection of the electrical installation and does not include any testing so the inspection is not likely to find hidden damage to concealed cabling or joints. For Landlords of domestic properties, a visual condition report would satisfy the requirement of the annual routine check but would not be sufficient for change of occupancy or as a replacement for the 5-year Electrical Installation Condition Report.
The cost for a Visual Condition Report is £65 + VAT
I need to have some portable appliances tested (PAT)
Portable appliance testing (PAT) involves the testing of electrical equipment used on your premises that connect to the mains supply with a removable plug. It covers items from mobile phone chargers to computer servers – if it plugs in, we can test it for you. Electrical appliances are tested using specific testing equipment and various tests are performed on each appliance in turn. Every appliance is labelled with an electrical test identifier and on conclusion of each site a detailed report is generated itemising the tests performed on each appliance by identifier and location.
Portable Appliance Testing (PAT) is charged as follows:
| No of appliances to be tested: | Prices (excluding VAT): |
| For less than 30 appliances | Minimum charge of £50 applies |
| 31-60 appliances | Minimum charge of £120 applies |
| 61-599 appliances | £1.10 per appliance |
| 600-999 appliances | £1.02 per appliance |
| 1000+ appliances | £0.98 per appliance |
| 110V equipment | £3.65 per appliance |
| 3-phase/415V equipment | £3.45 per appliance |
