Periodic Inspection and Testing of Electrical Installation

Electrical installations, if not properly maintained, can kill, injure, and cause serious property damage. Around the globe, people are killed almost every year from contact with, or because of electricity. Furthermore, all electrical installations deteriorate with age and use. They should therefore be inspected and tested at regular intervals to check whether they are in a satisfactory condition for continued use. Such safety checks are commonly referred to as 'periodic inspection and testing. This proposal aims to assist customers and approved technicians to put in place a suitable regime for periodic inspection and testing of electrical installations to reduce the possibility of harm arising from the electrical installation in a premise.
