At Definitive Electrical Solutions, we specialise in Fixed Wire Testing and EICR inspections across the East Midlands, covering Derbyshire, Nottinghamshire, Leicestershire, and Burton upon Trent. If you own a home and use it for any commercial purpose—whether as a rental property, Airbnb, or home business—you are legally required to have a valid EICR (Electrical Installation Condition Report). If your last inspection was five years ago, it’s time to renew to ensure your electrical systems remain safe and compliant.
Back to top1) Why is Fixed Wire Testing Important?
Electrical installations naturally deteriorate over time, and regular Fixed Wire Testing helps to identify any potential hazards before they become serious issues. Regulations and safety devices such as RCDs, AFDD’s and SPD’s are still evolving and improving over time. Our team conducts thorough EICR inspections to assess the safety and efficiency of your electrical systems, ensuring they meet the latest UK regulations. By keeping up with your 5-yearly EICR checks, you can protect your property, tenants, and loved ones from electrical faults that could lead to fires or electric shocks.
Back to top2) Do You Need an EICR?
If you are using your home in any commercial capacity, EICR testing is a legal requirement.
This includes:
- Landlords renting out properties in Nottingham, Derby, Leicester, or Burton upon Trent.
- Homeowners running businesses from their property.
- Holiday lets owners using platforms like Airbnb.
- Shared housing (HMOs) where multiple tenants live.
If you are unsure whether your EICR is still valid, check your last certificate. If it’s been five years or more, book your Fixed Wire Testing today.
