Questions about the electrical installation certificate (eic)
Is a specialist needed or will any electrician do?
The work must be done by someone competent and registered. That is what the certification depends on.
What if I have had this looked at before?
Bring us the previous report if you have one. We test independently but it is useful to see what changed.
What if the property has had DIY work done?
It gets tested like anything else. A new consumer unit, rewire or added circuit is often the result of well-meant work that was never verified.
