Fixed Wire Testing Services
We provide Fixed Wire Tests to SMEs and larger businesses throughout Essex and the East of England so that they can be sure that their electrics are safe and fully compliant. There are two main dangers that can be associated with electricity, these are; the risk of shock and the possibility of fire. Over a period of time normal wear and tear can increase those risks because the installations deteriorate, this also happens naturally with age.
How Does it work?
Each circuit undergoes a series of tests to make sure that it is wired correctly and in good condition. Any ‘damage, deterioration, defects and dangerous conditions within the installation’ is then identified on the Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR).
Any faults that are found are given one of three codes; C1, C2 or C3. Both C1 and C2 mean that the installation is of an unsatisfactory condition, C1 faults require urgent remedial work and are reported to the Duty Holder for immediate action.
Our risk based approach, in line with current regulations ensures that our clients receive a cost effective, sustainable compliance solution whilst reducing the risk of future faults or accidents.
