Electrical System Design

All electrical design is done in accordance with BS 7671:2018 IET Wiring Regulations and any specific standard depending on the type or nature of the system.
If you require us to design your electrical system, you will be provided with the following:

Electrical Installation

All electrical installation work is undertaken to a high standard, in accordance with BS 7671:2018 IET Wiring Regulations and with health and safety at the forefront of our minds.
Installation covers a broad scope of works including those listed under our Electrical Services. During the process, all new electrical wiring that has been installed is continuously inspected and tested prior to ‘powering-up’. Only when we consider safe to do so, will the new installation be made live, at which point, we do more inspecting and testing to ensure it is safe and working effectively.
During the process of installation, we will minimise disruption to your premises as much as possible, however some instances will require the building being without power for a certain period. We will work around you to come up with the best solution and schedule of works.
Following completion of the works, the Local Building Authority will be notified of the upgrade and all appropriate certification will be provided to you.

Fault finding / Maintenance / Call Out

Maintaining your existing electrical systems is essential to make sure it is safe, compliant and operating correctly. An electrical fault may be indicated by the regular operation of protection devices within your consumer unit / fuse board.
If you are without power / have an electrical emergency, please get in contact. Our responsive electrical team will be on call to get you back up and running.

Electrical Inspection and Testing

Electrical installations and electrical equipment deteriorate with use and time. To maintain a safe and workable system, it is important every installation is periodically inspected and tested by a competent person.
Failure to maintain the condition of your electrical system makes you liable under UK law for any damages or injuries caused by an electrical fire or shock.
There are two areas of electrical inspection and testing; Fixed Wire Testing and Portable Appliance Testing.

Fixed Wire Testing

This involves the inspection and testing of the wiring within a building to determine its condition for safe and continued use. The results of the inspection and testing is the production of an Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR). The report comprises results of the electrical testing, observations made and any remedial measures required.

Depending on the type of premises and the nature of the electrical installation, the following instances are when an EICR may be required;

Portable Appliance Testing (PAT)

Portable or moveable electrical appliances pose a particular high risk to safety due to the increased potential of damage from being transported and used in different environments.

The Electricity at Work Regulations 1989 requires that any electrical equipment has the potential to cause injury is maintained in a safe condition. In addition, the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 requires that employers and employees take responsibility for the safety of all those working at the premises. This includes electrical appliances.

An effective way to maintain the safe condition of the electrical appliances is to implement a routine inspection and testing programme. This is where we can come in. We can work with you to put together a programme to regularly visually inspect and electrically test your equipment to ensure they are safe for their continued use.
