Electric11 completed EICR remedial works in Attleborough after an electrical safety inspection identified C1 and C2 observations at the property. The work focused on correcting the defects recorded in the report and reducing the electrical risks associated with the fixed installation.
The remedial visit covered the priority items listed in the original Electrical Installation Condition Report. Minor materials, including connectors, screws, silicone and short cable lengths, were used where required to complete the repairs.
Why the Property Required Electrical Remedial Work
An EICR assesses the condition of a property’s fixed wiring, circuits, protective devices, switches, sockets and other electrical components. When an inspection records C1 or C2 observations, the report is classed as unsatisfactory and remedial action is required.
The earlier inspection at this Attleborough property identified defects within these higher-priority categories. Electric11 returned to address the recorded observations and bring the affected parts of the installation closer to the required safety standard.
Addressing C1 and C2 EICR Observations
EICR classification codes communicate the level of risk associated with each observation:
- C1 – Danger present: Immediate action is required because the defect presents a direct safety risk.
- C2 – Potentially dangerous: Urgent remedial action is required because the issue could become dangerous.
Electric11 used the original report as the scope for the remedial visit. Each listed C1 and C2 item was reviewed, accessed and rectified using the materials appropriate to that part of the installation.
Targeted Repairs Across the Electrical Installation
The work involved targeted repairs rather than a complete rewire or full consumer-unit replacement. This approach allowed the electrician to focus on the defects identified during the inspection while retaining serviceable parts of the existing installation.
Project photographs document electrical accessories, the meter area, the boiler electrical supply and protective devices reviewed during the visit. The recorded materials included Wago-style connectors, screws, silicone and short lengths of cable.
