Understanding observations
EICR observations may include C1, C2, C3 or FI codes. JTH Electrics explains observations clearly so you understand what is urgent, what is recommended and what further investigation may be required.
Safety first
The purpose of an EICR is not just paperwork. It is to help identify electrical risks and protect the people using the property. Where defects are found, JTH Electrics can discuss practical remedial options.
