Electrical Testing For Domestic Properties in Wimbledon

Buying or Selling a Property

If you are buying a property, selling a home or renting out your property to tenants, the relevant electrical testing services must take place.

Before you buy a property, it’s highly recommended that you request for the seller to receive an electrical installation condition report on the property. This is because rewiring a property can be an expensive process and if it’s discovered that the property needs to be rewired before you buy, then the asking price can be lowered to reflect this. The electrical installation condition report will highlight:

  • Inadequate or missing earth bonding on water and gas main supplies
  • Inadequate or missing safety devices that should be present on electrical circuits
  • Any deviations from current electrical standards
  • Any loose or damaged electrical equipment such as cables and sockets
  • Any defectives within the installations
  • Any potential health and safety risks or fire hazards

Once any electrical faults have been identified, they can be rectified before you buy the property.

 

Leasing a Property

As a landlord, you have a legal obligation to maintain your property, including the electrical installations. Out of all the electrical testing Wimbledon services that we offer, you are required to receive an electrical installation condition report every five years. If you are leasing a HMO property, you need to have portable appliance testing services annually on the electrical equipment and appliances that you supply.

Once the testing services have been carried out and the integrity of your electrical systems have been verified, you will receive the relevant electrical certificates.

If you have a change of tenancy before your next electrical installation condition report is due, it is recommended that you receive the report before the new tenants move into the property.

 

Electrical Testing for Commercial Properties in Wimbledon

As the landlord of a commercial property, you have more legal obligations that you need to adhere to. The electrical testing Wimbledon services that you need to receive are:

  • Electrical installation condition reports every 5 years
  • Portable appliance testing every year
  • Emergency lighting testing every 6 months (if there is an emergency lighting system present)
  • Fire alarm system testing and maintenance every 6 months

Often, you are required to get more regular electrical testing services, however, you will be within the legal requirements in these time frames.
