Is Your Leicester Home Electrically Safe? A Guide to Electrical Safety Certificates and Common Faults
Have you ever wondered if the wiring in your home is up to scratch?
Do you have flickering lights that give you a headache or a fuse board that seems to trip more often than it should?
These are not just minor annoyances; they can be signs of a serious underlying electrical issue. At 786 Electricals Ltd, our mission is to ensure every home in Leicester is a safe haven, free from hazardous electrical faults.
The Importance of an Electrical Safety Certificate
An Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR), often referred to as an electrical safety certificate, is a crucial document that confirms the electrical systems in your home are safe and compliant with current regulations. For homeowners, it's about peace of mind. For landlords, it’s a legal requirement to ensure the safety of your tenants.
How Do We Get You Certified?
Our highly qualified and experienced electricians are experts in diagnosing potential issues. During an inspection, they will meticulously check your home's internal wiring, fuse board, circuit breakers, and all other electrical components. They can quickly identify problems that might go unnoticed by the untrained eye. If we find any issues, we'll explain them in simple terms and provide a clear plan of action.
- Repair & Rewire: We can repair and rewire faulty internal wiring to make sure everything is running smoothly and safely.
- Fuse Board Upgrades: Old or faulty fuse boards (consumer units) are a common cause of problems. We can supply and fit modern, compliant fuse boards to protect your home and appliances.
Once all necessary work is complete and everything is deemed safe, we will issue your electrical certification, leaving you with total confidence in your home’s electrical safety.
