5 year electrical test
Around every 5 years we'll arrange an electrical test to the property to ensure that we keep our customers and their home safe.
5 Year Electrical Test is completed by our electricians and sometimes we may use a contractor
We carry these out to make sure the electrical installation is safe and safe for continued use
We test the cables from the fuseboard to the sockets/switches to make sure they are safe and test/check the safety devices/trip switches
A typical electrical test will take up to 2 hours depending on size of property and number of circuits present
We have a legal responsiblity to complete these, so these can't be cancelled however, you can rebook if you're unable to make the appointment
For some of our 5-year electrical tests we may use a contractor called Signix. You can contact them by:

You'll need to provide clear access to all rooms and where the fuse board is located
Where possible we need clear access to all sockets, lights and switches including cookers/shower switches
We will move light items of furniture for customers that are unable or require help
The electricity will be switched off for part of the test and we recommend the freezer remains shut at this time as the insulation will keep food frozen for duration until power is restored
If you need a copy of the certificate, you can find a copy of it on your 'Online Account' under 'Documents'
We may need to re-attend to complete any remedial works after the test. If we do, we'll be in touch to let you know
If you need to rebook a 5-year electrical test that one of our operatives are attending, please get in touch and we can rebook it with you.
