Safety for the Future
ELECTRICAL SAFETY INSPECTIONS ARE IMPORTANT: THE NEW REGIME
“As of June 1st, 2020 Government regulations will require landlords in England’s private rented sector to have all electrical installations checked at least once, every five years.” (Paul Collins, Technical Services Manager NICEIC and EIECSA).
THE NEW LEGISLATION
In England, any tenancies starting after July 1st, 2020 will be required to have an electrical safety inspection (ESI) before they commence, while those under way at that date must have an ESI completed before April 1st, 2021. For New properties with an electrical installation certificate or properties with an existing EICR, an ESI will be needed within five years.
