STATUTORY TESTING
MINIMISING LIMITATIONS WITH INTEGRATED INSPECTIONS
Standard fixed wire testing often fails facility managers by recording crucial main intake switchboards, busbar risers, and critical circuits as "agreed limitations" due to the strict zero-downtime demands of commercial buildings. MET Group redefines EICR delivery by combining traditional offline testing with non-intrusive live diagnostics—such as thermography and acoustic ultrasound—ensuring maximum coverage across your entire distribution network without forcing unnecessary power shutdowns.
KEY DELIVERABLES:
100% Inspection Clarity
Strategic sampling and out-of-hours scheduling designed to inspect full circuit paths and dramatically reduce operational limitations.
BS 7671 & EAWR Compliance
Thorough verification against current IET Wiring Regulations to satisfy duty-of-care obligations and insurance requirements.
Portal-Integrated EICR Delivery
Instant digital access to full statutory certification, circuit schedules, and prioritised defect coding (C1, C2, C3, FI).
STATUTORY OBLIGATIONS
MEETING LEGAL AND INSURANCE COMPLIANCE REQUIREMENTS
Under the Electricity at Work Regulations 1989 (EAWR), commercial property owners, employers, and facility managers hold a strict legal duty to keep electrical installations in a safe operational condition. Beyond statutory obligations, property underwriters increasingly demand valid, up-to-date EICRs to maintain full fire and property damage cover. MET Group provides clear, actionable compliance documentation that categorises defects systematically—allowing duty holders to prioritise critical remedial works, satisfy insurer demands, and maintain uninterrupted site operations.
OPERATIONAL SCOPE
SYSTEMATIC EICR TESTING & AUDIT SCOPE
A complete inspection methodology covering main incoming supplies, sub-distribution panels, and final circuit networks.
01
VISUAL & MECHANICAL INSPECTION
Detailed physical examination checking for cable damage, enclosure IP rating breaches, correct protective device ratings, thermal discoloration, and labeling accuracy.
03
LIVE ELECTRICAL & TRIP TESTING
Live parameter testing assessing earth fault loop impedance (Zs), prospective short-circuit current (PSCC), and RCD trip times under active system load.
02
DEAD TESTING & SAFETY VERIFICATION
Offline electrical testing covering continuity of protective conductors, ring final circuit continuity, and high-voltage insulation resistance testing across all conductors.
04
CERTIFICATION & REMEDIAL REPORTING
Comprehensive report generation issuing formal EICR certification alongside an itemised remedial estimate for any identified compliance defects.
