Electrical Inspection and Testing

Inspection and testing of fixed electrical installations in domestic, commercial and industrial premises.
The Electricity at Work Regulations apply to almost all workplaces and require specific precautions to be taken against the risk of death or personal injury from electricity in work activities. One such precaution is the regular inspection and testing of fixed electrical installations. It is the responsibility of all employers, landlords, and property owners to carry out structured inspection and testing of fixed electrical installations and to retain formal records of inspection and test results. These records may be requested by The Health and Safety Executive, or Insurance Companies in the event of an incident or claim.

The safety of electrical systems in the workplace is not only essential to protect employees, it is also a legal requirement under the Health & Safety Legislation - The Electricity at Work Regulations 1989, and failure to comply could result in both civil and criminal proceedings in the event of an incident.
