Frequently asked questions about electrical work

Still have a question?

How often should an EICR be completed for a rental property?

Landlords are required to have an Electrical Installation Condition Report carried out at least once every five years, or at the start of a new tenancy. The test checks wiring, socket outlets, switches and the distribution board to ensure the system is safe for tenants to use.

How long does a consumer unit replacement usually take?

A standard domestic consumer unit upgrade typically takes around half a day to a full day. The process includes isolating the main supply, removing the old board, mounting the new enclosure, terminating all circuits, and performing testing on every individual circuit before re-energising.

What is involved in installing power to a garden building?

Supplying power to an outbuilding or summerhouse requires running a steel wire armoured cable from the main property consumer unit or a sub-board. The cable is protected from underground disturbance, and a dedicated distribution board is installed inside the outbuilding to supply sockets and lighting.

Can older halogen downlights be replaced with modern LEDs?

Yes. Older halogen fittings can be replaced with energy-efficient, fire-rated LED downlights. The conversion reduces energy consumption, eliminates the extreme heat produced by halogen lamps, and provides consistent lighting throughout rooms such as kitchens and bathrooms.

When is minor works certification required?

Minor works certification is issued for electrical work that does not involve introducing an entirely new circuit. Examples include adding extra sockets to an existing ring circuit, replacing light fittings, or extending a lighting radial. It confirms that the alteration meets safety standards.
