Services
Fixed Wire Testing
Our fixed wire testing ensures electrical installation safety and compliance with BS 7671 regulations. Qualified engineers conduct thorough assessments of circuits, distribution boards and power outlets, identifying potential faults and non-compliance issues. The service includes detailed Electrical Installation Condition Reports (EICR) with circuit descriptions and free schematic drawings, with testing available during normal working hours, evenings and weekends to minimise business disruption.
PAT Testing
Portable appliance testing covers all moveable electrical equipment, ensuring compliance with codes of practice. Our engineers test for common issues like faulty wiring and fuse problems, providing immediate repairs where possible. The service includes asset records, test results and failed item details, with testing frequency recommendations aligned with Health and Safety Executive guidelines for commercial environments.
Emergency Light Testing
Emergency light testing ensures safety compliance through flexible monthly or annual testing schedules. Our engineers verify all components including switches and power sources, providing certification and remedial works quotes for identified defects. The service maintains system reliability for critical environments while minimising operational disruption during testing procedures.
Fire Alarm Testing
Regular fire alarm testing maintains system reliability and regulatory compliance. Our engineers test mains panels, detectors and sounders twice yearly as recommended, following BS 5839-1:2017 standards. The service includes full documentation and ensures minimal disruption to business operations during testing cycles.
Thermal Imaging
Thermographic surveys detect electrical anomalies invisible to the naked eye, identifying loose connections and equipment overloading. This proactive testing prevents system failures and fire risks while meeting HSE and insurance requirements. The service provides early fault detection to avoid costly shutdowns and maintain operational continuity.
