The Electrical Installation Condition Report will take place in the Chesterfield Borough Councils housing stock. There is a Circa of 8700 Council owned properties on a 5-year repeated cycle.
Our primary responsibility is to ensure that all properties within our housing stock are maintained at the highest safety standards. To achieve this, the Council mandates Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) testing for all domestic properties, whether they are occupied or vacant.
This rigorous EICR testing process is integral to our commitment to resident safety. It involves comprehensive assessments of electrical installations, identifying potential hazards, and ensuring compliance with safety regulations. By conducting these tests, we guarantee that our housing stock remains secure, reducing the risk of electrical accidents, fires, and related hazards. Moreover, it is essential for our duty of care to both our current tenants and future occupants.
