  • It is advised that you get a new electrical safety certificate when new tenants move into your property or once a year (whichever comes first).

An electrical safety certificate for landlords is one such document which can show that you did satisfying steps to ensure the safety of electrical system under your control.
  • There is directly no law that mentions a landlord should carry out annual electrical checks, so it’s not truly as cut and dry as Gas safety policies in rental properties, which states the landlord is legally obligated to get a yearly Gas Safety Certificate. Nevertheless, there are different regulations that do apply, but in nearly all cases their requirements just state that electrical systems and appliances need to be safely maintained and installed.
  • If you let property you must assure that the electrical system and all home appliances provided are safe– failure to comply by the electrical equipment (safety) laws 1994 and the consumer protection Act 1987 is a criminal offence. Landlord electrical safety certifications can assure you and your tenants that the electrical systems are safe.
  • The Electrical Safety Council (ESC) advises that the electrical installation is formally examined and checked a minimum of once every 5 years, by a qualified electrician, and a report confirming its condition is issued ( EICR-Electrical Installation Condition Report ). Any remedial work that is needed must be carried out by a registered electrician.
