Understanding Energy Performance Certificates (EPCs) in Building Compliance
The Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) is the government’s preferred method of complying with the Energy Performance of Building Directive (EPBD).
Its objective is to record a property’s energy efficiency. The certificate will rate a building’s energy efficiency and CO2 emissions on a scale of A to G, with A being very efficient and G being very inefficient.
EPCs are created using standard methodologies and assumptions about energy consumption, allowing the energy efficiency of one building to be easily compared to another of the same type.
EPCs are created using standard methodologies and assumptions about energy consumption, allowing the energy efficiency of one building to be easily compared to another of the same type.
This enables potential buyers, tenants, owners, occupiers, and purchasers to view information on their building’s energy efficiency and CO2 emissions, allowing them to factor energy efficiency and fuel costs into their investment decisions.
Landlord Responsibilities and Professional Certification for Electrical Safety Compliance
According to government regulations, landlords must ensure that every fixed electrical system is inspected and tested at least once every five years by a competent professional. The Regulations also require a landlord to get a report of the inspection and test results, provide it to each tenant within 28 days, and keep a copy until the next inspection is due.
- The objective of the inspection is to:
- Identify if any of your electrical circuits or equipment are overloaded.
- Highlight any potential electric shock or fire threats.
- Detect any faulty electrical work.
- Emphasise any lack of grounding or connecting.
Who Should Hand Out The Electrical Certificate?
Only accredited, competent individuals, such as registered electricians, should complete electrical inspection reports or certificates. They will compare the state of the electrics to the UK standard for the safety of electrical installations, BS 7671 – Requirements for Electrical Installations (IEE Wiring Regulations).
All of our engineers are NIC/EIC or NAPIT registered, and they are completely qualified to perform electrical certificates and residential electrical installation condition reports.
Ensuring Electrical Safety and Compliance Through EICR Certificate Testing
When it comes to the safety and compliance of electrical systems, EICR Certificate Testing cannot be overemphasised. The Electrical Installation Condition Report, or EICR, is critical to ensure the safety and functionality of electrical systems.
Potential dangers, like as electrical shocks and fires, are recognised by extensive testing, allowing for quick corrective procedures. This testing is not only necessary for occupant safety, but it is also required for all rental properties to comply with safety standards and regulatory requirements.
EICR testing is carried out by professional electrical engineers or electricians who adhere to the precise requirements and restrictions outlined in the IET Wiring Regulations standards. During the inspection procedure, certain elements like as bonding, earthing, and residual current devices are thoroughly tested.
The complete report provided after testing provides significant insights into the status of the electrical infrastructure and describes any necessary corrective action. Finally, the EICR certificate issued after repair confirms the electrical system’s safety and compliance.

Keeping Your Domestic & Commercial
Property and Tenants Safe and Compliant
As a landlord in the UK, ensuring the safety of your commercial and domestic properties is very important. This includes the condition of your property’s gas and electrical systems. We understand the importance of maintaining these systems and can help you navigate the legal requirements for Gas and Electrical Safety Certificates.
The Law and Gas Safety Certificates
The Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998 mandate that landlords in England, Scotland, and Wales have a Gas Safety Certificate (GSC) issued every year by a Gas Safe registered engineer. This ensures all gas appliances are safe for use and reduces the risk of carbon monoxide poisoning.
Key Clauses in the Gas Safety Regulations
Article 15: Requires landlords to maintain gas appliances in a safe condition to prevent the immediate danger of gas fitting failure.
Regulation 36: Makes it an offense for landlords to fail to obtain a Gas Safety Certificate before letting a property with gas appliances.
One of the most important reasons for having electrical safety certificates is to comply with electrical standards and laws. In the United Kingdom, landlords, property owners, and businesses are legally required to maintain the safety of electrical infrastructure.
These safety duties are defined in several legislation, including the Electrical Safety Standards in the Private Rented Sector (England) legislation 2020. Obtaining electrical safety certificates demonstrates property owners’ dedication to following regulatory standards while also providing a safe environment for inhabitants.
