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.

Questions from Suffolk customers
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.
What happens if the EICR finds faults?
Faults are coded C1, C2 or FI (further investigation). We quote the remedial work so the installation can be brought back to a satisfactory condition.

We cover Ipswich, Bury St Edmunds, Lowestoft, Felixstowe, Haverhill, Newmarket, plus the surrounding towns and business parks.
