Electrical Safety Audit / Inspection Services
An electrical inspection examines the state of the electrical wiring throughout your property, and checks if an installation meets safety standards. Once the inspection is completed, you are issued an Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR). This outlines whether your installation is satisfactory, or whether any issues have been found.
Why is Electrical Inspection Important?
Protection against possible surges
There are many areas where electrical surges occur, especially during storms that can not only destroy your appliances, but also cause short circuits throughout your home. When the inspection is being done, the inspector will check for different points in the wiring that can cause this type of mishap.
Electric Shock
There have been several instances where an electrical short circuit has been the cause of a fire breaking out in a house. There are a variety of loose wires in the meter or in the wiring itself that cause these short circuits. During the inspection, the inspector will easily detect these faults and ask you to fix them.
Electronic appliance
Suppose you touched an electronic device and immediately felt a surge of electricity in your body. Furthermore, the body current in electronic appliances can easily inhibit their performance and can render them non-operational. An electrical inspector can catch these wiring errors and rectify them at the earliest convenience.
