What Is an Electrical Safety Inspection?

An electrical safety inspection, formally known as an Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR), is a comprehensive assessment of the fixed wiring in a property. The inspection guarantees your installation is safe and meets current UK standards. By choosing a qualified Manchester electrician, you ensure that hidden risks are identified before they cause damage across Greater Manchester.


At the end of the inspection, you’ll receive a graded report. Defects are classified as C1 (danger present), C2 (potentially dangerous), or C3 (improvement recommended). This ensures you know exactly what needs to be addressed in your Manchester home or business.
