Electrical Testing

Electrical inspection and testing is essential to ensure that electrical installations are designed, installed and maintained to an acceptable standard of safety. Homeowners and businesses have a responsibility to have their electrics checked, however the type of electrical certification and the frequency of the testing will depend on the type of installation you may have.

Here at SMT Electrical Contractors, we provide extensive electrical inspection and testing services. So whatever your requirement, we have the expertise to enable you to achieve electrical compliance. From initial survey to certifying your installation, we provide our clients with detailed and intelligible information, making sure they stay well informed throughout the entire process.

Fixed Wire Testing involves testing the electrical installations and systems that conduct electricity around the building. It covers all of the electrical wiring in a building and includes main panels, distribution boards, lighting, socket outlets and other fixed plant.

Electrical Installation Certificates (EICs) and Minor Electrical Installation Works Certificates (MEIWCs) provide you, as the person responsible for the safety of an electrical installation, with a declaration that the new installation, or alteration or addition, is safe to use at the time it was put into service.

Should the EICR test be classed as “unsatisfactory” the required remedial work should be done without delay. We provide an itemised quotation of any required remedial work which accompanies our report. All remedial work is undertaken by SMT Electrical and once completed, a satisfactory certificate is produced. 

Portable appliance testing is a requirement for landlords and business to have their electrical appliances checked on a yearly basis. This is done through testing of the appliances to safeguard against damage and to make certain that these items perform properly.
