Landlords have a legal duty to ensure that their rental property, and any electrical equipment provided, meets BS7671, the UK Standard safety of electrical installation requirements before a tenancy begins and during tenancy occupation.

Over time, with regular use, wear and tear will cause the electrical installation to deteriorate. Therefore, an Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) needs to be carried out on a regular basis, concluding with a “SATISFACTORY” result, to ensure electrical safety regulations are being met. The requirement is that if the same tenant remains in occupation, then the period of inspection should not exceed five years, or an EICR carried out every time a new tenant occupies the property. Regular visual inspections of the property between these periods is recommended to prevent broken and worn electrical installations going unnoticed, these can then be repaired immediately, to avoid potential hazards rendering the property unsafe and not fit to live in.
