Office EICR — what we test
Commercial EICRs are required every 5 years (or sooner if specified). Insurers and landlord-of-commercial-property contracts often want one less than 5 years old. We test:
- Main distribution board(s) condition + sub-main configuration
- Insulation resistance on every final circuit (combinations for 3-phase)
- Earth-fault loop impedance at boards AND at every fixed piece of equipment
- RCD trip times and sensitivity (Type A required for any electronic-switched load)
- Main earthing and supplementary bonding to gas, water, plant, structural metalwork
- Cable condition, glanding, terminations
- Socket and switch condition across all workstations
- Fixed equipment isolation and labelling
- Emergency lighting + fire alarm interface verification (where relevant)
- Issued: NICEIC EICR with Schedule of Inspections + Schedule of Test Results — solicitor-ready, landlord-ready, insurer-ready
