Welcome to Electrical Testing UK & Installations

Leading national electrical contractor for installation, maintenance, and compliance, trusted for expertise and committed to uncompromising safety standards.

Electrical Testing UK & Installations is a national electrical, fire, and security contractor, delivering expert electrical installation, electrical maintenance, and compliance services across the UK. Our business is built on technical expertise, trust, and an uncompromising commitment to safety.

For over a decade, we have supported organisations with a complete range of services, including electrical installation, ongoing electrical maintenance, EICR testing, fixed wire testing, and PAT testing, alongside fire alarm systems, emergency lighting, and intruder alarm installations and servicing. What began as a specialist testing company in Lincolnshire has grown into a nationwide provider of fully integrated electrical, fire, and security solutions.

We work with a wide range of clients, including local authorities, academy trusts, housing associations, manufacturers, and national facilities management companies, delivering both new electrical installations and long-term maintenance contracts across single and multi-site portfolios.

Our reputation is built on doing the fundamentals exceptionally well: reliable attendance, high-quality workmanship, and clear, straightforward compliance support. Whether delivering a full electrical installation project, maintaining existing systems, or carrying out essential testing and certification, we ensure every job meets the highest standards.

With engineers operating from regional locations including Boston, Norwich, Lowestoft Cambridge, Nottingham, Birmingham, Peterborough, and London, we provide the national coverage, fast response, and consistency required to support large-scale contracts, without losing the attention to detail that defines our service.

Core Values

Our values aren’t a list of aspirations, they’re the standards we hold ourselves to on every job, for every client, on every site.

Safety above everything

In our industry, safety isn't a selling point, it's the baseline. Every engineer we deploy is fully qualified and works to the latest UK regulatory standards. We never cut corners, and we never sign off work we're not confident in. Our clients trust us with the safety of their buildings and the people in them, and we take that responsibility seriously.

Reliability you can plan around

Compliance programmes only work when your contractor shows up and delivers on time. Our clients, many of whom manage rolling inspection schedules across multiple sites, rely on us to hit our commitments without chasing. We understand that missed appointments mean rescheduled audits, unhappy governors and delayed certifications. We don't leave our clients in that position.

Expertise at every level

From our engineers on site to our account managers coordinating large programmes, the knowledge runs deep. Our team brings experience across PAT testing, EICR, fire systems, solar, and industrial electrical work, meaning clients get genuinely expert advice, not just a testing service.

Transparency and straight talking

When we find a fault, we tell you clearly what it is, what the risk is, and what it will take to fix it. When a job is going to take longer than expected, we say so. Our clients deal with enough complexity in their roles, we make the compliance side of things as clear and uncomplicated as possible.

Contract

Long-Term Client Partnerships

We don’t just complete jobs, we support our clients long term. From installation projects to ongoing maintenance and compliance contracts, we build trusted relationships by delivering dependable service and expert guidance.

Why large organisations choose Electrical Testing UK

There are hundreds of electrical testing contractors in the UK. Most of them do a reasonable job on smaller, single-site work. Fewer are genuinely equipped to handle the scale, coordination and documentation demands that come with managing compliance across a large estate.

Here’s what sets us apart for the clients who need more than a standard testing visit:

National coverage with real local presence

We’re not a head office operation that subcontracts jobs to unknown engineers. Our regional bases mean you get qualified engineers who are based near your sites, managed by a consistent team, and accountable to us directly.

A single point of contact for your entire estate

For facilities managers and compliance officers handling multiple sites, one of the biggest frustrations is coordinating several contractors and chasing several sets of paperwork. We act as a single compliance partner, one point of contact, one set of documentation, one invoice where possible.

Documentation your auditors will accept

Our certification and reporting meets the requirements of local authority procurement teams, Ofsted, housing regulators and HSE inspections. We know what your auditors need to see, and we make sure it’s there.

Remedials included, not added on

When faults are found during testing or inspection, many contractors stop there and leave you to find someone else to fix them. We don’t. Our remedial works capability means issues are resolved quickly, by the same team that found them, with full documentation of the rectification work.

Accreditations that meet procurement requirements

We hold the accreditations required by public sector procurement frameworks, including NICEIC Approved Contractor, CHAS, SafeContractor, ECA membership and TrustMark. If your procurement team has a checklist, we’re on it.

The people behind the work

Our leadership team brings together deep technical expertise, decades of industry experience, and a shared commitment to delivering compliance services that genuinely work for large, complex organisations.
