Professional Electrical Safety Testing in Birmingham
Electrical safety isn't only about a formal report. A safety check looks at how your installation behaves day to day—whether protective devices trip within safe limits, bonding is sound, and alarms work when you need them.
We test, trace and repair the issues that put households at risk, then certify the work under BS 7671.
Key Features Included:
- RCD and RCBO trip-time testing to confirm protection disconnects within safe limits.
- Earth bonding inspection and upgrades to gas and water services.
- Smoke, heat and carbon monoxide alarm testing and installation to current standards.
- Fault finding for nuisance tripping, overheating accessories and intermittent faults.
Signs You May Need Electrical Safety Testing
Common issues and indicators that warrant a certified inspection in your property.
Nuisance Tripping
An RCD trips repeatedly and you can't identify which appliance or circuit is causing it.
No Smoke Alarms
Your home has no interconnected mains smoke alarms, or the existing ones are past their replacement date.
Warm or Discoloured Sockets
Sockets or switches feel warm, look discoloured, or smell of burning when in use.
Older Accessories
Your accessories are old, cracked, or the wiring behind them has never been checked.
