Commercial Electricians in Stockport

“Commercial electrical” refers to electrical systems in a commercial setting. Many aspects of a commercial system will be similar to those in a domestic environment, but commercial systems are often much larger and carry higher levels of current. This is why commercial electrical testing is a separate discipline to domestic electrical testing. To find the best commercial electrician, Stockport businesses need only call us.

Commercial electricians in Stockport and elsewhere tend to work on higher voltages and larger systems than their domestic counterparts. Domestic electricians often work alone, but the size of commercial systems means that commercial electricians tend to work in teams.

We do not impose a call-out charge on commercial customers. Rather we assess the electrical job that we are undertaking and offer a quotation based upon the work to be completed. For a call out charge free electrician, Stockport businesses and householders can rely on us.

Any commercial electrical safety certificate issued by a person who was not properly qualified and licensed would not be valid and would not constitute your firms compliance with UK electrical safety laws. You must always ensure that commercial property electrical testing at your premises is always conducted by a properly accredited engineer. That is why you need the skills and experience of Electric Call.

If you have an electrical emergency our commercial electricians in Stockport are available twenty four hours a day, seven days a week. If your requirements are less urgent – perhaps you need to arrange for some commercial fixed wire testing, for example – we will schedule an appointment for a time that suits you.

As a commercial electrician, Stockport based for many years, we do not consider the work to be “hard” as such. Sometimes preparing a Commercial EICR Report is a matter of routine. Sometimes the job can be extremely challenging, but as with any other job when the work is something you enjoy and are good at, as our people are, it never seems like hard work to us.

Just as a commercial electrician will generally work on larger, more complex and higher powered electrical systems than their domestic counterparts, an industrial electrician works with electrical systems and appliances that are larger, more complex and more highly powered still. As a result industrial electricians tend to be more expensive than their commercial colleagues.

Of course! As leading commercial electricians in Stockport we are always happy to answer any queries that our clients, or potential clients, might have. Just call or email us and we will help in any way we can.

A commercial electrical installation is an electrical installation that is designed to handle higher voltages and higher energy use than a domestic system. This might range from the lighting system in a shopping centre, to appliances used in small manufacturing plants. Because of the higher energy loads involved a commercial electrical installation will be more “heavy duty” than a domestic system.

Because of the higher levels of training and qualifications required when you call on commercial electricians near Stockport, you will find that their expertise is a little more expensive than an average domestic electrician would be. Actual costs will always depend on the size and complexity of the job so contact us now for a comprehensive quote.

In short, accreditation and experience. You need to know that your chosen commercial electrician knows what they are doing. Equally, a Commercial Electrical Certificate issued by somebody not properly qualified will be invalid so check their accreditation. All of our commercial electricians are fully NAPIT qualified so you can call us with confidence.

A commercial electrician, Stockport based or indeed from anywhere else works on the installation and maintenance of commercial electrical systems. They also conduct commercial electrical testing and will issue a Commercial EICR Report.

The most obvious signs of electrical problems will be flickering lights, equipment malfunction and sparking. However always remember that you cannot see or smell electricity and some faults can be impossible to detect unless a trained person is actively looking for them. That is why regular commercial property electrical testing is so vitally important when it comes to keeping a system safe.

We certainly do. If they need the services of a commercial electrician Stockport businesses know that they can rely on Electric Call to take care of all of their electrical maintenance needs. Call us now to discuss how we can help.

Any business that deals with the public will have public liability insurance. This is intended to cover the costs of any loss or injury that a member of the public might experience as the result of an accident caused by that businesses activities. As commercial electricians we certainly do carry such insurance.

An EICR is an “Electronic Installation Condition Report” and details the results of commercial fixed wire testing. Any employer or landlord is required to have an EICR for their premises that is not more than five years old.

That would depend on the size and complexity of the system in question. We will always assess these factors when quoting for a job and give the client a clear idea of the timescales involved.

Electrical maintenance and testing involves the regular inspection of electrical systems, the issuing of commercial electrical safety certificates and any other work required to keep an electrical system safe and properly functional.

Using NICEIC contractors ensures that any work conducted will have been completed to a high standard by qualified people. NICEIC contractors are trained to such a level that they are permitted to self-certify their work, which also save your business time and money.

If you are an employer you have a legal responsibility to ensure that your electrical installation is safe for your employees to use. A commercial EICR, issued after the your fixed wiring has been tested by a properly qualified and licensed professional is the most effective way to do that, and to demonstrate that your system is safe.

We always keep disruption to an absolute minimum. However, it will sometimes be necessary to isolate some circuits to facilitate safe testing. We always work with our clients to ensure that any disruption is minor.

After an initial visual inspection our engineers will test every circuit, outlet and fixed appliance to ensure that nothing is live that should not be live, there are no short circuits and that the correct levels of current are supplied to the correct circuits and appliances. Only when everything has been found to be safe and functioning within the correct parameters will a commercial EICR be issued.
