Having your electrical systems tested and inspected regularly ensures the safety of your home or business, as well as the occupants within. You are legally required to have your property periodically tested every few years.

NDH Installations are NICEIC approved contractors, as well as Part P registered tradesmen. All of the work carried out by NDH electricians is certified and guaranteed for 6 months. We offer clients the standard Periodic Test and Inspection Certificate as well as Landlord Reports & Certficates, Visual Inspecting and Fault Finding.

Periodic Test and Inspection certificate
Periodic Test and Inspection Certificates are often legally required by your property insurance provider or local authority, and are always a sensible option when first moving into new premises.

The inspection will provide an extensive evaluation of your entire electrical system. This includes a visual check on the consumer unit, fuses & circuit breakers and all visible wiring for any signs of damage from overheating. Around 20% of the sockets and switches will then have their conductors and terminations checked. If this check uncovers any problems or faults then more if not all of these items will be checked. All circuits are then checked thoroughly for continuity, resistance, polarity and various other circuit fault checks.

Having completely checked the system we will issue a certificate to indicate whether your property is satisfactory or unsatisfactory. This will include our electricians notes, as well as the grading of specific faults on a scale of 1 to 4. 1 indicates that this item reuires immediate attention, and 4 is an item which may not comply with official regulations but is not necessarily unsafe.

Surveys
If you are already fully aware that there is a serious fault in your electrical system you will clearly have no need to waste time undergoing a Periodic Test & Inspection. In instances such as this we can carry out a Visual Survey which allows us to survey the situation and provide a written report of any probelms uncovered along with recommendations of the repair work required to fix them.

Landlord’s Reports
Landlords are legally required to provide electrical safety certificates for their properties. This guarantees the safety of your tenants as well as your own peace of mind. NDH can provide both reports and certificates for landlords across Bath and the surrounding area.

Fault Finding
If you find that you are suffering from a very specific problem with your electrical system- for example the same fuse keeps blowing over and over- but cannot locate the nature of the fault, NDH can provide an electrical fault finding service. Thanks to our years of experience and fully qualified electricians there are very few problems that we haven't previously encountered and successfully repaired.

Using our knowledge and experience and professional test equipment we can identify the issue, even on wire buried within the walls of the property and will then be able to replace and repair the offending component.
