Commercial EICRs and fixed installation testing

Lake Electrical are trusted commercial electrical contractors providing professional electrical services for offices and businesses to business owners, landlords, facilities managers and property management companies across the South East, including Kent, Sussex, Surrey and London.

Our work is planned to minimise disruption, allowing inspections and installations to be completed while businesses continue operating normally. Modern offices rely on stable electrical infrastructure to support lighting, IT networks, server rooms, HVAC systems and building services.

Lake Electrical carries out Commercial Electrical Installation Condition Reports (EICRs) in line with current wiring regulations (BS 7671:2018+A2:2022). We perform a structured inspection and testing process covering fixed wiring systems, distribution boards, protective devices, earthing and bonding arrangements, and accessible electrical accessories, confirming safety and suitability for continued use.

Testing is carried out using calibrated instruments, with results assessed against current regulatory standards. Observations are risk-coded to highlight immediate safety issues, required remedial works, and recommended improvements that support ongoing compliance.

Once complete, formal certification is issued, providing documented evidence of inspection for insurers, commercial landlords, managing agents, and compliance records.

Office electrical testing within operational environments

Electrical testing in live office settings requires carefully planned isolation to avoid disruption to staff, equipment, and building operations. Lake Electrical can schedule testing in phases or outside normal working hours where needed, allowing circuits to be safely tested while maintaining continuity of critical services.

Updated circuit labelling, board schedules, and system records can be provided as part of the inspection process, improving visibility for facilities teams and simplifying future maintenance or energy saving solutions.

Landlord and commercial compliance management

Commercial landlords are responsible for ensuring that fixed electrical installations remain safe throughout tenancy periods. We work with landlords and property managers to provide inspection programmes, compliance certification and coordinated remedial works aligned with tenancy cycles and property compliance schedules.

Electrical remedial works following inspection

Where an inspection identifies Code C1, C2, or FI (further investigation) observations, we provide certified remedial works to restore compliance with current wiring regulations.

Common corrective works include the replacement or upgrading of distribution boards to meet modern protection standards, installation of appropriate RCD or RCBO protection, correction of overloaded or incorrectly rated circuits, upgrading of earthing and bonding arrangements, and removal of redundant or non-compliant wiring that poses a safety risk.

Supporting offices and commercial properties across the South East

Lake Electrical provides electrical services for offices and businesses across the south east including Kent, Sussex, Surrey and London. We support office environments, commercial premises, and property portfolios that require certified inspections, compliance reporting, and professionally managed remedial programmes.

Organisations that need dependable commercial electrical compliance services benefit from working with a contractor focused on structured testing and long-term system safety, rather than short-term call-out work.

Our clients love the efficiency and professionalism.

"Lake Electrical were selected from the short-list of contractors because not only was the value appropriate but the quality of service, trustworthiness & finished product was a guarantee.

Cameron

Farringdon, London

"We are delighted with the results, particularly the effect the lighting has had on brightening up the interior and making it so much easier to read our hymn books – and most importantly, The Bible! We love being able to dim and brighten the lights as necessary and you were very helpful once the project was complete in adjusting the angle of the lights to get the beams just right. We found you and your staff friendly, co-operative and professional throughout the project, with an understanding of the needs of an operational church, ensuring materials were cleared away and the church was safe and the electrics usable for service on the Sundays. Your adaptability in making sure that what was provided was workable and fitted well with the historical fabric was also much appreciated. As with all projects some changes were inevitable and we were very happy with the way these were suggested and dealt with. We would be happy to recommend your services to other churches for this type of work."

"On behalf of our management company I'd like to say thanks for the extremely helpful and professional service given by you, Lucy and your colleagues. During the planning and decision making period you answered a number of queries over an extended period and offered alternatives we hadn't asked for or were unaware of. We thought this great service. Thanks too for honouring a quote which was some months old by the time we made a decision! You and your colleagues were very polite, organised and unobtrusive yesterday. We would like to extend our thanks and compliments for this and for the great clearance after the work – the hallways were left spotless! Our cleaner came today and was very impressed!"
