AshDale Electrical Testing

Why test your electrical Installation?

Most things unfortunately deteriorate with age and an electrical installation is one of them. For this reason, to ensure safety to yourself and others it is recommended that the electrical installation is inspected and tested at suitable intervals.

How frequently should the installation be Inspected & Tested?

The Institute of Engineering & technology (IET) give guidance for the "recommended" frequencies for the initial inspection & test of most electrical installations, with 10 years for Domestic properties & 3 to 5 years recommended for most commercial & industrial type premises.
However, consideration must be given other factors. A careful assessment of your installation and it’s use should be conducted to help determine the retest frequency.
