Keeping electrical safety in check

Keeping electrical safety in check

Landlords' electrical safety checks urgently needed

31st January 2020

The new mandatory electrical safety testing legislation for all rental properties can’t become law quickly enough for some properties. These photos were all taken in one rental property that we inspected recently.

All in all they represent a recipe for potential disaster for the property and, even worse, a severe danger to life!

If you're a letting agent or landlord and you have any questions regarding electrical safety compliance or wish to request a no-obligation quotation for your PAT testing or fixed wire testing in Cambridge, please call us on 01223 850301 or complete our enquiry form.

Testimonials

We recently engaged with MS Electrical to undertake our PAT testing. The service we received from Mark and his team was professional from the moment we contacted them, and they were so easy to deal with. The engineer on site was efficient and worked around the team to ensure minimum disruption. They certainly are highly recommended. Thank you MS Electrical!
