FAQ
Testing & Certification — Common Questions
What's the difference between testing and certification?
Testing measures the safety of the installation (insulation, earth, RCD). Certification is the document we issue when the install passes — required for sale, landlord registration, or insurance.
Do landlords need periodic testing?
Yes — Irish landlords require a current electrical safety cert. We test, remediate any issues, and issue the cert in one visit where possible.
What's a Periodic Inspection Report (PIR)?
A full health check of the installation: condition of CU, circuits, earthing, bonding, and RCD performance. Standard for property sale, change of use, or insurance.
How long is a cert valid?
Domestic: typically 10 years or on change of occupancy. Commercial: usually 5 years. Earlier if defects were noted at last test.
