Fixed Wire Testing (sometimes called EICR) involves periodically examining your electrical installations or circuits to ensure they are in top working condition.
The testing includes checking electrical circuits, wiring, sockets and other fixed electrical equipment for defects, deterioration and damage that could be a shock to the system.
Whether you are a business owner, landlord, or facilities manager of a commercial building, it’s essential to ensure your electrical installations meet legal requirements. Fixed Wire Testing is one of the best ways to do this.

We know the struggle of searching for that one essential document from ages ago. To make life easier, we’ve crafted an online Document Portal, allowing you easy access to all of your testing certificates. All of the valuable insights, none of the paperwork.
Log in to the portalWhilst Fixed Wire Testing is not a legal requirement in itself, skipping it means your electrical installations aren’t maintained, and you’re therefore not legally compliant. Confusing, right?! To keep things simple - just get it done.
How often you should carry out Fixed Wire Testing will vary depending on the type of property you have. For non-industrial settings, they are typically required every five years; however, for industrial operations, Fixed Wire Testing is required every three years.
While an insurance company may not explicitly mandate Fixed Wire Testing (EICR), they do expect policyholders to meet safety standards and comply with relevant laws and regulations. Failure to do so could result in denial of a claim or even policy cancellation. Big yikes.
At Focus On Testing, we store all of your testing certificates and paperwork in our secure and digitised Document Portal. This means you’ll never have to worry about losing your results or worrying about proof of compliance.
