Tests and Inspections

As a business owner or manager, you are legally bound to provide a safe workplace environment for employees, visitors and customers, and that includes ensuring your electrical systems, components and appliances are in safe working order. There are strict regulations in place to make sure all organisations remain compliant, so it’s a good idea to have experienced and knowledgeable professionals on hand to carry out testing and inspections on your behalf.

Here at VF Electrical Services, we work hand in hand with a great many commercial and industrial customers to make sure their equipment is as safe and well-maintained as can be. We offer rigorous periodic tests and inspections that not only help clients to remain compliant but also regularly highlight potential issues that can be dealt with earlier, thereby reducing the risk of expensive major repairs at a later date.

Your business needs to be running effectively and efficiently at all times, so we can liaise with you from the start to arrange tests and inspections at a time that suits you best and minimises any disruption to your operations. Whether you have a retail outlet, factory, warehouse, workshop or any other commercial property, we can help you to remain compliant with a minimum of upheaval.

In some cases, our clients request bespoke inspections of individual pieces of plant, while in others we provide regular testing for complete workplace premises. PAT testing for small appliances in the workplace is needed from time to time, and we also provide Electrical Installation Condition Reports (EICRs) for industrial, commercial and residential properties as and when necessary.

The peace of mind you deserve

As well as offering the tests and inspections, we can also give you guidance on the levels of compliance you need to adhere to. If you aren’t sure about what needs to be tested and when, our friendly, helpful and knowledgeable team can advise you of your responsibilities. It’s reassuring to know that you can leave things to us and then focus on other aspects of your business.

Electrical testing can cover so many aspects of any given business location, including switches, sockets, consumer units, light fittings, machinery, plant, circuit breakers, earthing and so much more. It’s always worth noting that electrical equipment, including wiring, can and will deteriorate over time, and as such will be liable to damage at some point.

The potential early warnings of a thorough inspection can save your company a great deal of money and of course could prevent unexpected downtime at some point in the future. Untested equipment is always going to be more likely to cause electric shocks and potentially disastrous fires. Regular testing can be so much more than an onerous legal requirement that you could do without.

We are NICEIC approved and fully experienced in all aspects of industrial and commercial electrics. VF Electrical Services, based in Dundee and covering the whole of Scotland, are ready and waiting to help you with all your testing and inspection needs.
