All electrical installations get damaged with time and ought to be inspected and tested every 3-5 years for a smooth service. These regular safety checks are usually called electrical certificates or domestic electrical installation condition report as per the UK Government that meet the electrical safety standards. There are three sets of electrical certificates with independent adaptations released for landlords, tenants, and local authorities in England.
If your property is newly built or if the building has been completely rewired, you ought to have an Electrical Installation Certificate (EIC). If the local housing authority requests for an EIC, you can get a copy of the same from your landlords if you are a tenant. As long as EIC meets the regulations, the landlord will not be required to provide another report for next 5 years after the it has been issued or carry out further electrical inspection unless necessary.
However, if you own the property, you need to ensure that the electrical safety standards are met when the property is occupied. At Rose Electricals, we provide certified electrical services for every fixed electrical installation at the property and also inspect and test the electrical installations by a qualified engineer.

It further highlights lack of earthing or bonding, if any. Our certified electrical experts inspect the electrical circuit wiring to ensure safety.
