As Dunfermline’s premier female electrician, I bring a unique blend of expertise, attention to detail, and customer-focused service to every electrical inspection and testing job.

That’s why we offer comprehensive inspection and testing services in Dunfermline designed to give you peace of mind and ensure your property meets all current safety standards and regulations.
The Importance of Regular Electrical Inspections
Many property owners underestimate the significance of regular electrical inspections. Did you know that your home’s wiring should be tested and inspected every 10 years? For rental properties, this timeframe shortens to every 5 years or upon change of tenancy. These aren’t just arbitrary numbers—they’re crucial for maintaining the safety and efficiency of your electrical systems.
Regular inspections help:
- Identify potential hazards before they become serious problems
- Ensure compliance with current electrical regulations
- Improve energy efficiency
- Prevent unexpected breakdowns and costly repairs
- Maintain the value and safety of your property
Our Electrical Inspection & Testing Services
Electrical Installation Certificates (I-Cert)
At Berturelli Electrical Services in Dunfermline, an Electrical Installation Certificate (I-Cert) is issued only for electrical work personally undertaken. This legally required document certifies that the installation complies with BS 7671, the UK standard for electrical installations. It serves as proof that the work has been inspected, tested, and meets all safety regulations. Whether it’s a full rewire of your home or a new summerhouse installation, you can rest assured that your project will come with the relevant certification to confirm compliance with current standards.
Landlord Certificates
For landlords in Dunfermline, staying compliant with electrical safety regulations is not just good practice—it’s the law. Our Landlord Certificates service includes a comprehensive inspection of your rental property’s electrical systems. We’ll provide you with the necessary documentation to prove your property meets all safety standards, protecting both you and your tenants.
Electrical Installation Condition Reports (EICR)
An EICR is a detailed assessment of your property’s electrical systems. This thorough inspection identifies any defective work, potential electric shock risks and fire hazards, and non-compliance with current safety standards. As a professional electrician in Dunfermline, I recommend an EICR:
- Every 10 years for owner-occupied homes
- Every 5 years for rented properties
- When buying or selling a property
- If you’re concerned about the safety of your electrical installation
Our EICR service provides you with a comprehensive report on the condition of your electrics, giving you a clear picture of any necessary repairs or upgrades.
Portable Appliance Testing (PAT)
While fixed installations are crucial, don’t overlook the importance of your portable electrical appliances. Our PAT service ensures that items like kettles, computers, and power tools are safe for use. This is particularly important for businesses and landlords who have a duty of care to their employees and tenants.
Domestic Smoke Detector Inspection Certificates
Smoke detectors are your first line of defence against fire, but they’re only effective if they’re working correctly. Our smoke detector inspection service ensures your detectors are properly installed, functioning correctly, and compliant with current regulations. We’ll provide you with a certificate confirming the status of your smoke detection systems, giving you and your family or tenants added peace of mind.
Domestic Carbon Monoxide Detector Inspection Certificates
Carbon monoxide is known as the ‘silent killer’ due to its odourless and colourless nature. Ensuring your carbon monoxide detectors are working correctly is crucial for the safety of your property’s occupants. Our inspection service checks the installation, functionality, and compliance of your carbon monoxide detectors, providing you with a certificate that confirms their operational status.
