If you’re a landlord in the UK, ensuring the safety of your rental property is not just a priority—it’s a legal requirement. The Landlord Electrical Safety Certificate, also known as an Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR), is a vital document that confirms the electrical installations within your property are safe for tenants to use. Failing to have a valid EICR could not only put your tenants at risk but also lead to heavy fines and legal consequences.
At LLC, we provide comprehensive EICR inspections to help landlords across the UK stay compliant with the latest regulations and safeguard their properties.
What is an Electrical Safety Certificate for a Landlord?
An Electrical Safety Certificate for a Landlord is a report generated after a qualified electrician inspects the electrical systems and installations within your property. The report outlines whether the installation is safe or if any remedial work is needed to ensure compliance. It covers elements such as:
- The condition of electrical wiring and outlets
- Fuse boards (consumer units)
- Light fittings and switches
- Fixed appliances and other installations
Prices:
Studio from £140 ( Offer: from £115)
1 Bed from £ 150 ( Offer: from £120 ).
2 Bedrooms from £ 170 ( Offer: from £135 ).
3 Bedrooms from £ 180 ( Offer: from £145 ).
4 Bedrooms from £ 195 ( Offer: from £165 ).
More than 4 bedrooms, please call office.
Kindly note that the prices mentioned above are applicable for a property in London that has up to 5 circuits with a single consumer unit. However, if you have more than 5 circuits, there will be an additional charge of £10 plus VAT for each additional circuit.
Legal Requirements for Landlords in the UK
Since July 1, 2020, it has become a legal obligation for landlords in England to have their properties inspected and tested by a qualified electrician at least once every five years. For new tenancies, this must be done before the tenant moves in. Existing tenancies must also adhere to the five-year rule to maintain compliance.
Failing to obtain or renew your Landlord Electrical Safety Certificate could result in:
- Fines of up to £30,000
- Being unable to evict tenants through Section 21
- Potential insurance invalidation
Ensure you meet your legal obligations as a landlord and protect your investment by scheduling a timely EICR inspection.
What Does an EICR Inspection Involve?
When you schedule an EICR inspection, a qualified electrician will:
1. Inspect and Test: The electrician will thoroughly inspect your electrical installations, checking for faults, deterioration, and hazards.
2. Report Findings: You will receive a detailed report indicating whether the installation is satisfactory or if remedial work is necessary.
3. Certification: If your property meets all safety standards, you will receive your Landlord Electrical Safety Certificate, which will be valid for five years.
If any issues are found during the inspection, they will be classified as:
- C1 (Danger Present): Immediate action required.
- C2 (Potentially Dangerous): Urgent remedial work needed.
- C3 (Improvement Recommended): Non-urgent, but advisable.

FAQs
A Landlord Electrical Safety Certificate, also known as an Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR), is a legal document that verifies the safety of electrical installations in a rental property. It is issued by a qualified electrician after a thorough inspection of the electrical systems.
Landlords must have an EICR inspection carried out every five years or before a new tenancy begins.
No, only a qualified and registered electrician can issue an EICR.
Landlords are legally required to have an Electrical Safety Certificate to ensure that their rental properties are safe for tenants. It confirms that the property meets current safety standards and helps prevent potential electrical hazards such as fires and electric shocks.
During the inspection, a qualified electrician will check the condition of the electrical wiring, fuse boards, sockets, light fittings, and fixed appliances. The electrician will assess whether these installations meet safety standards and issue the EICR accordingly.
The inspection typically takes between 1-4 hours, depending on the property’s size. If the property is compliant, the Landlord Electrical Safety Certificate is usually issued within a few days. If issues are found, landlords must complete the remedial work before receiving the certificate.
Yes, landlords must obtain a Landlord Electrical Safety Certificate for every rental property they own to ensure that each one meets the required safety standards.
Yes, both furnished and unfurnished rental properties require a valid Landlord Electrical Safety Certificate to ensure that all fixed electrical installations are safe for tenants, regardless of whether the property is furnished or not.
If the property fails the inspection, landlords must address the issues identified within the report, typically within 28 days. A follow-up inspection will then be conducted to confirm that the property is compliant, allowing the landlord to receive the Landlord Electrical Safety Certificate.
