Electrical Test Midlands provides professional fixed wire testing in Telford, helping property owners, landlords and facilities managers meet their legal electrical safety requirements. Backed by more than 20 years of industry experience, our skilled engineers deliver consistent, compliant and hassle-free inspections. Whether you're responsible for a single property or managing a large portfolio, we’re here to ensure your electrical systems are both safe and certified.
Why Fixed Electrical Testing is Essential
Even well-installed systems deteriorate with age. Cables degrade, protective devices become less effective and faults can develop in hidden areas such as ceiling voids or behind plaster. Without proper inspection, these issues can pose risks ranging from electric shock to fire or serious operational failures.
Our fixed wire testing service in Telford identifies and addresses these risks. We issue a full Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR), which provides a clear overview of your system’s condition and ensures you meet your obligations under the Electricity at Work Regulations 1989 and current BS 7671 wiring standards.
What Our Fixed Wire Testing Covers
Our engineers carry out comprehensive inspections on your building’s fixed electrical systems. In Telford, this includes both visual checks and electrical tests on:
- Distribution equipment – Consumer units, fuse boards, switchgear, isolators and incoming supply arrangements
- Circuit protection devices – MCBs, RCDs, RCBOs, surge protection units and associated fuses
- Permanent cabling – Concealed wiring inside walls, floors and ceilings, junction boxes, cable terminations and routing methods
- Fixed installations – Light fittings and switches, sockets, cookers, immersion heaters, showers, emergency lighting and fire alarm systems
- Earthing and bonding – Main earth terminals, bonding to pipework and supplementary bonding in wet areas
Our fixed wire testing is methodical and non-disruptive, ensuring your daily operations continue smoothly.
Ensuring You Stay Compliant
Many clients in Telford reach out to us unsure whether their buildings meet current legislation, particularly when trying to stay aligned with the Electrical Safety Standards in the Private Rented Sector (England) Regulations 2020.
After testing, we supply a detailed EICR that classifies any findings according to severity:
- C1 – Immediate danger present, urgent action required
- C2 – Potential danger, remedial work recommended without delay
- C3 – Improvement suggested for better safety, not legally required
If your system is compliant, you'll receive a clean report valid until your next required inspection. If issues are found, our in-house team can carry out necessary remedial work quickly and cost-effectively, from minor fixes to system upgrades. We also offer optional services like thermal imaging or load monitoring for sites where ongoing performance is critical.
