Testing

---

By ensuring all aspects of your electrical installation run safely, you can protect your business against potential failures, dangers and compliance issues.

Electrical installation projects, as well as the connecting power supply, are both major hazards. Not only is this due to potentially fatal electrical shocks due to contact, but also the possibility of serious fires and explosions.

All electrical installations deteriorate with age and use and should therefore be inspected and tested at regular intervals to check whether they are in a satisfactory condition for continued use. Such safety checks are commonly referred to as ‘periodic inspection and testing’ and will support you in your bid to become compliant with electrical legislation. This includes the fundamental requirements of the BS 7671 IET Wiring Regulations, the Electricity at Work Regulations 1989 and the Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations 1998.

The sample test will be representative of the electrical installation, considering age, type, usage, maintenance and environment. Our engineers will visually inspect 100% of the required installation that is being sampled. Our engineers will visually inspect 100% of the required installation. Our engineers will visually inspect 100% of the required installation. If this is the first electrical fixed wire inspection of your site, or no previous records of inspection and testing exist, we recommend that a full 100% inspection and test (so far is reasonably practicable), is given to meet legal requirements. 100% of the required distribution boards (so far is reasonably practicable), will be tested by our experienced inspectors. Compliance Solutions is our custom-built web portal, giving customers exclusive access to their inspection and test records and condition reports, with the benefit of an interactive view of the overall electrical site compliance with customisable displays and hyperlinked dashboard.

Single Line Drawings will be provided to represent the installation electrical layout for isolation purposes. Full Network Drawings provide a detailed representation of the installation, including fuse sizes and ratings of switchgear where known. This will be updated at every inspection cycle and will identify any dangerous non-compliances. Any circuits that are unidentified will be investigated to the industry standard time limit of 15 minutes. Any circuits that are unidentified will be investigated to the industry standard time limit of 15 minutes. Db’s will have affixed suitable warning labels and identification labels. Db’s will have affixed suitable warning labels and identification labels. Remedial Quotation provided on completion of the project if requested. Remedial Quotation provided within 5 days of project completion, subject to the size of the project. We will conduct a Thermographic Survey of the distribution board only to identify any unusually high temperatures that may cause risk or concern and produce a thermal image of any item that shows high temperature. A full Thermographic Survey of electrical distribution equipment as defined in the quotation, will verify (as far as is reasonably practicable) your installation shows no signs of overheating or overload. It can be an effective method for identifying potential defects that may not be acknowledged by more conventional visual inspections. It’s an additional tool that can be used without disrupting essential power supply and will produce a full report. Our inspectors will provide at time of test minor remedials as part of the premium package, for example this could include screws, blanks and grommets. The value will be agreed before work commences, and items rectified at time of test will have before and after photos. Your account manager will provide a dedicated point of contact and will review the project with you on a 1-to-1 basis on completion You will be assigned a Dedicated Site Lead Inspector for the duration of the programme to ensure consistency of the project and increase site knowledge, minimising limitations and access issues.
