What is the electrical testing?

Electrical testing refers to the process of examining the functionality and safety of electrical systems and components. This testing is crucial for ensuring that electrical installations meet the necessary standards and regulations for safety and efficiency. The primary goal is to prevent electrical accidents, ensure compliance with legal standards, and maintain the reliability and longevity of electrical systems.

How long is an electrical installation condition report valid for?

The validity period of an Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) can vary depending on several factors, including the type of property, its use, and the condition of the installation. For private homes, an EICR is typically valid for 10 years. Landlords are often advised to obtain an EICR every 5 years, or with each change of tenancy, whichever comes first. For commercial premises, the recommended interval is usually every 5 years. In industrial settings, due to the higher risks and often more intensive use of electrical systems, inspections might be required more frequently, typically every 3 years. Places like schools, pubs, restaurants, and theaters may need more frequent checks, often every 1 to 5 years based on the specific regulations governing these spaces.

How much electricity do solar panels generate?

Solar panels typically generate about 250 to 400 watts of electricity each under ideal conditions. The total electricity generated depends on the number of panels, their efficiency, and the amount of sunlight they receive, which varies by location. For example, a standard residential solar panel system might produce around 1 to 4 kilowatt-hours (kWh) per day per panel.
