In England, landlords are legally required to have all electrical installations in a rented property inspected and tested by a qualified person at least every five years and to provide a copy of the EICR certificate to tenants and, if requested, to the local authority. These requirements are set out in the Electrical Safety Standards in the Private Rented Sector (England) Regulations published by the UK Government, which aim to keep tenants safe from electrical hazards.
Confused Electrical’s qualified and experienced electricians carry out full electrical safety inspections tailored for landlords’ needs. These inspections check all fixed wiring, consumer units, sockets, switches and other installed electrical components to make sure they meet current standards and to identify any deterioration or hazards. Once this inspection is complete, they issue a formal EICR certificate that landlords can use to demonstrate compliance with electrical safety regulations.
Getting an EICR isn’t just a legal formality; it helps landlords spot and fix potential electrical risks early, protecting both the property and those who live there. For general advice and detailed guidance on electrical safety inspections and landlord responsibilities, resources from GOV.UK and the National Residential Landlords Association (NRLA) offer in‑depth explanations of inspection intervals and compliance expectations.
