Fixed Wire Testing Across Hampshire

Fixed wire testing across Hampshire

Hampshire combines two large cities, Southampton and Portsmouth, with the M3 and M27 corridor towns of Basingstoke, Winchester, Eastleigh, Fareham and Andover. The Port of Southampton, Portsmouth International Port and the naval base give the coast a strong marine and logistics base, while Basingstoke, Farnborough and Whiteley provide office and technology parks. The county also has a heavy defence presence and two universities. We work extensively across all of these and attend as soon as possible, at a time that suits your operation. Basingstoke has its own page.

About fixed wire testing and EICRs

Fixed wire testing, formally an Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR), is the periodic inspection and testing of a building's permanent wiring, distribution boards, protective devices, earthing and bonding. It is how duty holders demonstrate that an installation is being maintained safely under the Electricity at Work Regulations 1989, and most insurers, landlords and accreditation schemes expect to see a current report. Observations are coded C1, C2, C3 or FI so that anything dangerous is dealt with first. For a full explanation of what the inspection involves, how often different buildings should be tested and what the codes mean, see our main Fixed Wire Testing service page.
