Electrical safety for landlords

27th May 2016

If you’re a landlord it is your responsibility to ensure that the safety of your tenants and anyone they invite into your rented property is not compromised by faulty electrical installations.

To help ensure that you cover all the bases and keep everyone safe, we’ve compiled a useful 12-point checklist for electrical safety.

At MS Electrical we offer PAT testing in Cambridge, Ely and Newmarket and fixed wire testing in Cambridge, Ely and Newmarket. We’re here to keep your electrical safety in check, and we’re only a call away.

Testimonials

This is second year we have used MS Electrical and we are very happy with the service they provide. Very efficient and quick to book an appointment. The inspection on both occasions was carried out by the same engineer, who was very efficient and professional. Also, the certificate arrived the next working day, which is great. Reasonable prices too. We will be using their services again.
