Over the last year, the regulations have changed with regards to whether landlords should provide or have completed Electrical Installation Condition Reports (or EICR), there has been a number of instances where landlords have said they have had some electrical work carried out. (Potentially in the last few years).
To clear this up if a landlord has got an Electrical Installation Certificate for a newly built property, this has got to be less than five years old, otherwise the Electrical Installation Condition Report is required.
If the property is an existing property which has had a complete rewire, the wiring must be less than 5 years old otherwise the EICR is required.
If you have had a fuse board change or additional circuits installed, you may have had a Minor Works Electrical Installation Certificate, or you may have had a Electrical Installation Certificate for the works carried out.
This does not replace the Electrical Installation Condition Report.
This is regulatory because there have been some dubious contractors out there, who have done the very bare minimum and not tested properties when they have installed sockets, new circuits or even new consumer units.
This comes from a government committee and national committees formed with the electrical authorising bodies – we belong to the NICEIC.

Karen and her team of electricians did a very good job in assessing our electrical circuits, modernising and upgrading our fuse boxes and ensuring compliance with the latest regulations. They were efficient and polite and, when they had finished the work, left the house tidy and in good condition
I needed a job done really 'sooner rather than later' and at a weekend too! Karen came out, assessed what needed to be done and set to work straight away. Job done, cleared up and on her way within the hour! Not often you get that service! Certainly will keep her number on my mobile and recommend to anyone who needs an electrical job done!
Very pleased with the Bright Spark team who installed a new Zappi EV charger and replaced our consumer unit. Many thanks for another job well done. Neat & clean. 10/10
I had an emergency situation arising from a constantly tripping appliance. A call to Bright Sparks, who have helped me before, led me to their website’s ‘Knowledge Centre’ and although I’ve used similar help sites before this was excellent – clear, well laid out, and logically organised – and as someone with zero electrical knowledge I managed to find the fault myself! I followed up the situation on the phone and got more advice. Really impressed by the Bright Sparks service and will continue to use them and their Knowledge Centre again in the future.
I was very pleased with the prompt and efficient service. The electrician phoned in advance to confirm his time of arrival and was friendly and polite.
