Regular inspections of your business’ electrical installation can help prevent injuries from faulty electrical equipment or damaged wiring. Electrical installations can deteriorate over time, so it’s essential to identify potential risks that may cause electric shocks or fire hazards.
Ensuring that your building’s electrical installation is periodically tested and certified by a Registered Electrical Contractor reduces the risk of electrical accidents or fire hazards caused by faulty electrical equipment, helping lower your insurance liability.
Electrical testing not only ensures that your building’s electrical installation is safe, but it can also ensure that electrical equipment is in good working condition. This helps reduce the risk of unexpected equipment failure and extends the lifetime of your electrical equipment.
To ensure the safety of staff and visitors to your business premises, Electrical Periodic Inspection and Testing is a requirement of the Safety Health and Welfare at Work – (General Application) Regulations 2007. For more information see the Guidance-Note HSA website.
Electrical Testing and Verification is a process that allows you to have confidence in your building’s electrical installation. This process ensures that your installation complies with the National Rules for Electrical Installations (ET101).
Damaged, faulty, or overloaded electrical cables and equipment can produce heat or sparks that may cause a fire. Periodic Electrical Testing helps to identify issues with your electrical installation that create the potential for fire.
An Earth Fault Loop Impedance test will be carried out to ensure sufficient current flow to operate circuit breaker protection in any faulty circuit. A visual inspection will also be carried out to ensure all exposed metal assets throughout the building are earthed and bonded correctly to prevent electric shock should they accidentally come live.
Testing of electrical circuits will be carried out to test for continuity of conductors in ring final circuits, resistance of protective conductors, insulation resistance of the electrical installation and to ensure correct polarity. Electrical testing will also ensure that circuits or equipment are not overloaded.
Periodic inspection and testing of installations should be based on a risk assessment, with the intervals dependent on parameters such as the:
Age of the installation
Quality of the installation
Environmental circumstances
Type of persons using the installation
Amount of supervision of the person responsible for the installation
Possibility of damage to the equipment
