Electrical Installation Condition Reports for Homes and Rental Properties

Fixin4u provides Electrical Installation Condition Reports (EICRs) to assess and record the condition of an existing electrical installation. The inspection considers the installation within the agreed scope, records test results, observations and any limitations, then provides a report showing the condition identified at the time of inspection.

EICR inspection scope

What an EICR Appointment Is Intended to Cover

The purpose of the visit is to inspect and test the electrical installation within the agreed scope, record findings and produce a condition report. Any repair or upgrade identified afterwards remains separate work.

01

Condition of the Existing Installation

The inspection considers the condition of the electrical installation rather than assuming that a particular repair or upgrade is already needed.

02

Inspection and Electrical Testing

Inspection and testing are carried out within the agreed scope so the report can be based on the condition and test results found during the appointment.

03

Observations Recorded in the Report

Relevant observations identified during the inspection are recorded so the report reflects the condition found rather than presenting a generic electrical checklist.

04

Access and Inspection Limitations

Where access or other practical restrictions affect what can be inspected or tested, those limitations form part of the reporting context.

05

Report for the Property

The completed EICR records the outcome of the inspection for the installation within the scope agreed for that property.

06

Remedial Work Kept Separate

If the report identifies work that needs attention, the repair, consumer unit work or rewiring should be scoped separately rather than being treated as automatically included in the EICR.

Inspection and reporting

How an EICR Is Approached

The appointment is organised around the property, access to the electrical installation and the inspection scope needed to produce an accurate condition report.

Confirm the Property and Scope

Provide the property type, reason for the EICR and any known access details so the inspection can be scoped around the installation that needs reporting.

Inspect the Installation

The accessible parts of the electrical installation within the agreed scope are inspected and the condition found is considered as part of the report.

Carry Out Relevant Testing

Electrical testing is used alongside the inspection to obtain the results needed for the condition assessment and report.

Record Findings and Report

Test results, observations and relevant limitations are recorded in the EICR so any separate next steps can be considered from the report findings.

Choose the right appointment

EICR Inspection or Electrical Repair Visit?

These appointments serve different purposes. An EICR assesses and reports on the condition of the installation, while a repair visit investigates or fixes a known electrical problem.

Choose an EICR for Condition Reporting

Book an EICR when the main requirement is an electrical installation condition inspection and a written report covering the findings within the agreed scope.

Choose Fault Finding for a Specific Problem

If circuits are tripping, part of the property has lost power or another electrical fault needs diagnosis, use the fault-finding service rather than booking an EICR as a substitute repair visit.

Important scope distinction: an EICR can identify observations that may lead to further work, but remedial work is separate from the inspection and report. A consumer unit upgrade or rewiring should only be scoped if the actual findings support that separate requirement.
Before you book

Information and Access That Help With an EICR

Property information and practical access can affect the inspection scope, time required and what can be included in the report.

Useful Details to Provide

  • The property type and whether the EICR is for a home, landlord or rental-property requirement.
  • Any previous EICR or known observations that may be relevant to the new inspection.
  • Any known access restrictions that could affect inspection of the consumer unit or electrical points.

What Can Affect the Appointment

  • The size and layout of the installation and the number of circuits within the agreed inspection scope.
  • Access to the consumer unit, electrical points and other parts of the installation that need inspection or testing.
  • Any limitations identified during the visit that affect what can reasonably be inspected or tested.
No guaranteed pass: an EICR is a condition report based on the inspection and test results. The service should not be described as guaranteeing a satisfactory outcome before the installation has been inspected.
After the inspection

Does the Report Point to Separate Electrical Work?

Where the EICR identifies a separate issue, use the service that owns that work rather than expanding the inspection page into a repair or upgrade service.

If a specific fault needs diagnosis

Electrical Fault Finding & Repairs

For a defined fault or recurring electrical problem that needs investigation and repair rather than condition reporting.

 If consumer unit work is required

Consumer Unit Upgrades

For consumer unit replacement or upgrade work that is identified as a separate requirement.

 If wider wiring replacement is required

Electrical Rewiring

For full or partial domestic rewiring where the required scope goes beyond condition reporting or a localised repair.
An EICR is an Electrical Installation Condition Report. It records the condition of an existing electrical installation based on the inspection, testing, observations and any relevant limitations within the agreed scope.
