What is electrical maintenance and testing?

Electrical maintenance covers the periodic inspection and testing of a building's fixed wiring, portable appliances and emergency lighting, plus the repairs those tests identify. The aim is a safe installation and a clear paper trail showing it has been checked.

Rules that apply in England

The Electricity at Work Regulations 1989 require electrical systems to be maintained so far as reasonably practicable to prevent danger. Guidance suggests commercial premises have fixed-wire testing at least every five years, and more often for some uses. In England, fire safety in non-domestic premises falls under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, workplaces have had to separate recycling under Simpler Recycling since 31 March 2025, and the Building Safety Act 2022 adds duties for higher-risk residential buildings.

Can testing be done out of hours?

Yes. Fixed-wire testing needs circuits switched off, so we often test in the evening or at weekends to avoid disruption.
