5 Is Electrical Solutions right for you? Determining whether Electrical Solutions could be right for you is very simple. If you answer no to any of the following questions then Electrical Solutions is worth exploring for your business Are you fully up to date on electrical safety regulation? Are you prepared for the potential cost to your business of regulatory non-compliance or on-site electrical incidents, not just in fines but in downtime? Are you happy with your current level of energy consumption? Is your electrical equipment regularly inspected? Is your electrical safety and compliance managed by an expert partner? 5

6 The three steps of Electrical Solutions We offer three levels of service all tailored to the individual customer. These provide a number of options to help a business work towards achieving electrical compliance. Basic Interim Inspection Following a detailed visual inspection of your electrical systems we will create a report highlighting any risks or defects, then make recommendations based on the findings. Electrical Safety Assessment This option builds on the benefits of the Basic Interim Inspection but includes some sample testing. We highlight any dangers that could lead to electric shocks and check to see that historic defects have been rectified. Full Periodic Wiring Inspection and Test Combining a comprehensive level of testing with detailed visual inspection, this service allows us to ensure full compliance with the Electricity at Work Regulations 1989 and the IET Wiring Regulations BS7671 has been met. This option supplements the previous two and includes a detailed list of all test results, giving high-risk areas more attention. 6
