Visual Inspection

The first is a formal, comprehensive visual inspection.  This is the equivalent of the inspection process in a Periodic Inspection and Test report but doesn't include testing the installation. This includes a sample inspection of joints, terminations, lighting points and socket-outlets (at least 10% sampling). Any deterioration ,damage, and defects to conductors, outlets and switchgear are noted on the report. Earthing arrangements are determined and recorded. And protective devices (fuses) are visually checked to make sure that each circuit is adequately protected. Areas that don't comply with the current regulations (BS7671 as amended) will be noted on the report.

Periodic Inspection & Testing

The Inspection part of the process is as above but also includes comprehensive testing of the installation which can help to determine damage to circuits not obvious from a visual inspection. Also, the correct operation of RCD's and the speed in which a circuit disconnects, in the event of a fault, can be assessed.

This option is the most popular choice, as it satisfies the Institute of Electrical Engineers recommendations, that a domestic installation should be checked at least every ten years and on change of ownership.

From the information collected a comprehensive report is then produced which will highlight any areas that need attention.
