Electrical Testing & Inspection Across Carmarthenshire
An Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) is an essential check for anyone responsible for a property's electrical safety. Harad Electrical carries out thorough testing and produces fully certified reports.
EICRs are legally required for landlords in England and Wales and are strongly recommended for anyone buying or selling a property, or where the electrical installation is ageing. We carry out EICR testing and inspection across domestic, commercial and agricultural properties throughout Carmarthenshire. If remedial work is required following an inspection, we can carry out fault finding and repair or a full or partial rewire as required.
Our testing process is thorough and systematic. We check the condition of the wiring, consumer unit, sockets, switches and all fixed electrical equipment, comparing findings against the current wiring regulations (BS 7671). You'll receive a clear, certified report outlining the condition of the installation and any remedial work recommended or required.
What We Test
- Domestic properties (rented and owner-occupied)
- Commercial premises
- Houses in multiple occupation (HMOs)
- Agricultural buildings

As NICEIC registered electricians, our EICR reports are fully recognised by insurance companies, local authorities and mortgage lenders. Reports are typically completed promptly, and we're happy to carry out any remedial work identified during the inspection. We can also advise on LED lighting upgrades to improve energy efficiency at the same time.
