Focus on Electrical Minor Works
/JCW have history dating back to 1903 within the electrical engineering industry. Although our business model has changed over the years, the electrical engineering services we provide continues to form half of our maintenance turnover.
Electrical Compliance Testing
We provide our customers with planned maintenance contracts which include electrical testing performed in accordance with regulations, ensuring that our customers premises remain compliant. As this area of our business has grown, so has additional need for electrical remedial work to be completed.
To stay ahead of demand we have recently restructured our Leicester office to have a dedicated team of engineers conducting electrical testing and completing any subsequent remedial work that is highlighted.
Electrical Installation Condition Reports
The Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 places legal duties on employers to protect the employed through the provision of a safe working environment. Statutory Compliance is a legal requirement and normally the responsibility lies with a nominated person or team within the compliant company.
As part of statutory compliance requirements, buildings need to have their electrical installations periodically tested. An Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) is then completed for the premises and will highlight if any faults or defects require attention. Here are the definitions of the codes within an EICR report:
Code C1 Fault | This means that there is an immediate danger and requires urgent attention and repair as soon as possible
Code C2 Fault | This means there is a potential danger and is in unsatisfactory condition which require attention
Code C3 Fault | This means that a fault has been observed and there are recommended improvements that can be made
Electrical Minor Works Certificates
Any electrical remedial work completed following an EICR will require an Electrical Minor Work Certificate to confirm that the minor electrical work to which it relates has been completed and tested in accordance with BS 7671 (IEE Wiring Regulations), this is a legal requirement for:
Alterations made to an existing circuit (without the change of the protective device)
Additions made to an existing circuit (such as a new socket outlet)
