Fixed Wire Testing in Leicester

Fixed wire testing in Leicester

Leicester is a manufacturing and distribution city with a large textiles and food production base, engineering across Beaumont Leys, Troon and Meridian, and logistics at Magna Park Lutterworth, one of the largest distribution parks in Europe, and along the M1 and M69. The city centre provides offices and Highcross retail, and the University of Leicester, De Montfort University, Loughborough University and the Leicester Royal Infirmary are major estates.

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.
