What Does a Home Electrical Check Involve?

Why Do I Need an Electrical Inspection?
The primary reason to get a professional inspection is safety. Faulty wiring or poor electrical maintenance is responsible for needless house fires every year. Having a certified electrician inspect your home can literally save your life and prevent the destruction of your property.
Inspections are also a critical part of a real estate transaction. Whether you are buying or selling a home, a professional electrical check is necessary to ensure you pass inspection and that the property’s wiring is up to code.
How Long Does a House Electrical Test Take?
You can generally expect a home electrical inspection to take one to three hours. This timeframe varies depending on:
- The overall size and age of your home.
- The complexity of accessing the wiring and electrical panels.
- The number of electrical points, such as outlets, ceiling fans, and outdoor lighting features.
How Often Should You Have an Electrical Inspection?
It is generally recommended that you have your home inspected by a certified professional electrician every five years.
For landlords, getting an Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) is often a legal requirement. This report, typically required every five years, is essential for ensuring a safer living environment for your renters and maintaining your property’s compliance.
