Common questions

Fixed Wire Testing in Crawley — FAQ

Does fixed wire testing mean a full power-down?

Not necessarily — much of the installation can be tested live or in short isolated sections, we'll scope this at survey.

How is this different from an EICR?

An EICR is the overall condition report; fixed wire testing is the detailed circuit-level verification that underpins it.

What's the typical interval?

5 years for most commercial premises, shorter for higher-risk environments like industrial or agricultural sites.

Questions from Crawley clients

Frequently asked questions

How much does fixed wire testing cost in Crawley?

Commercial fixed wire testing (a commercial EICR) in Crawley starts from £199 + VAT for small premises. Larger sites are priced on distribution boards and circuits and you receive a fixed written quotation that states whether every circuit is tested.

How often is fixed wire testing required?

The Electricity at Work Regulations 1989 require installations to be maintained in a safe condition. Guidance in BS 7671 and IET Guidance Note 3 recommends five-yearly testing for offices, shops and hotels, three-yearly for industrial premises and places of entertainment, and annual testing for swimming pools and similar high-risk locations.

Can testing be done without disrupting the business?

Yes. Testing in Crawley is planned board by board, with out-of-hours and weekend sessions available so critical circuits are only isolated when it suits the site.

What happens if the EICR is unsatisfactory?

Any C1 (danger present), C2 (potentially dangerous) or FI (further investigation) observation makes the report unsatisfactory. Each observation is explained in plain English with a prioritised, itemised remedial quotation so you can decide how to proceed. C3 observations are recommendations and do not cause a fail.

Are your Crawley electricians NICEIC approved?

Yes. Polarity Electrics London Ltd is an NICEIC Approved Contractor (#602034000) and every report is completed to BS 7671:2018+A3:2024 by a qualified, competent inspector.
