Electrical compliance

Our electricians at Stator Electrical have such a broad range of expertise and experience in all things electrical, gained through our work with commercial and industrial customers across Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire, that we decided it would be a great idea to share that knowledge.

Commercial electricians. Electrical contractors. Industrial electricians. However you wish to describe us, the electricians at Stator Electrical have been hard at work providing commercial and industrial electrical services to businesses across Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire. Our NICEIC-approved engineers provide the full range of electrical contracting services to fulfil the electrical needs and requirements of businesses across the region.

Stator Electrical have been working on a number of rewire projects for landlords in Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire across the winter months. These have been a mixture of HMO properties and individual dwellings. Not only will a rewire improve the safety and the efficiency of the electrics in your rental property, upgraded and modernised electrics can also attract premium tenants as well as reduce the likelihood of future repair bills. In this blog post we will try to answer some of the most frequently asked questions about rewires for landlords.

Compliance is a word banded around both businesses and homes, but what exactly does it mean and how do you achieve it? Well, your insurance may depend on having it, and without sounding dramatic, so too might the lives of people using your premises!

Following lower usage throughout the COVID lockdowns and undertaking widespread augmentations in view of a busier September term, Midlands universities are striving to achieve the highest levels of electrical compliance.  

Stator Electrical is working with more and more university, college and school Facilities Managers, providing them with the skilled electrical work required to ensure every campus, study area and halls of residence is safe, functional and that all electrical installations fully comply with current legislation.

After a tumultuous and uncertain year for student accommodation, the first semester of the 2021/22 academic year may well be a step closer to normality, meaning that more students will be moving into student accommodation.  So that means that all student accommodation, whether university-owned, commercial or private will have to be safe and ready. 

Like all businesses throughout the UK, those across the wider Derby, Nottingham, Mansfield, and Chesterfield area must demonstrate that they comply with an array of electrical regulations. Compliance to regulations not only satisfies the law, but tells all those who use buildings, electrical items, and equipment that a business is responsible, professional, and caring.

So What Legislation Should My Business Comply With?

If you’re a business owner in the UK, you will know that have a duty to ensure the safety of your tenants or your employees.  Commercial electrical certification helps you to enjoy safer, cleaner and more sustainable electricity.

If you’re a Midlands-based Landlord or Agent, you’ll know that 5-Year electrical safety checks are now a legal requirement, as from July 1st, 2020. With further changes to the legislation expected to come into force next year, how can you ensure you enlist the right electrician services to avoid non-compliance and fines?
