Fixed Wire Testing Services in Chatham

A major Medway town with significant retail, commercial, and industrial sectors including Chatham Dockside. MES PAT Testing Ltd has been serving businesses in Chatham and across Kent for over 20 years, providing reliable, certified fixed wire testing to organisations of all sizes.

Fixed wire testing — also known as Periodic Inspection & Testing or Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) — is the assessment of your building's permanent electrical wiring, consumer units, distribution boards, and fixed electrical systems. Unlike PAT testing which covers portable appliances, fixed wire testing examines the infrastructure that powers your entire premises.

Whether you're a small business in Chatham with a handful of appliances, or a large organisation with hundreds of items to test, our engineers can visit your premises at a time that suits you — including early mornings, evenings, and weekends — to ensure your business maintains full electrical safety compliance.

FAQs: Fixed Wire Testing in Chatham

How often is fixed wire testing required?

Commercial premises typically require an EICR every 5 years. Rental properties require one every 5 years or at change of tenancy. High-risk environments may require more frequent inspections.

What is the difference between PAT testing and fixed wire testing?

PAT testing covers portable electrical appliances you can move and plug in. Fixed wire testing covers your building's permanent electrical installation — wiring, consumer units, sockets, and switches.

What do the EICR codes mean?

C1 (Danger present — immediate action required), C2 (Potentially dangerous — urgent action required), C3 (Improvement recommended), FI (Further investigation required). C1 and C2 results mean the installation is unsatisfactory.
