Healthcare & Public Sector Testing
Protect patients, staff and the public with structured inspection and testing. EICR reports, emergency lighting testing, PAT testing, thermal imaging inspections, and clear documentation that stands up to audits and inspections across Scotland.
EICR reports for healthcare and public buildings
Periodic inspection and testing of fixed wiring with clear observations, coding, and practical next steps for dutyholders, estates teams, and insurers. HSE advises arranging inspection and testing of fixed wiring to minimise deterioration leading to danger.
Emergency lighting testing, logbooks, and remedials
Support for monthly functional checks and annual duration testing, with clear records and remedials where defects are found. Critical for escape routes, stairwells, and shared access areas.
PAT testing with a risk based approach
Practical checks built around risk, environment, and how equipment is used. HSE states it is a myth that all portable appliances in low risk environments need annual PAT, the legal duty is to maintain equipment to prevent danger.
Thermal imaging inspections for early fault detection
Infrared scanning of live distribution boards and panels to identify abnormal heat and developing faults, with clear reporting for remedials and planned maintenance.
Periodic condition inspections for key assets
Targeted condition inspections of boards, protective devices, and critical circuits, with defects prioritised and a clear action plan. Useful between full test cycles or where downtime risk is higher.
Compliance documentation packs for audits and inspections
When you are asked for “electrical certificates” or evidence packs, we help confirm what applies, close gaps, and provide tidy documentation with clear next steps.
Healthcare and public sector environments
Testing and inspection that supports safety, continuity, and inspection readiness
Healthcare and public buildings often operate with tight access rules, safeguarding requirements, and services that cannot stop. Electrical testing needs to be planned properly, completed safely, and reported clearly.
HSE recommends inspection and testing of fixed wiring installations to reduce the chance of deterioration leading to danger, and it should normally be carried out by a competent person.
For care providers, CQC Regulation 15 focuses on premises and equipment being suitable and maintained. For NHS premises, HTM 06-01 explains requirements around electrical services supply and distribution, and it should be read in conjunction with BS 7671.
We deliver testing in a way that fits live environments, with clear findings, prioritised actions, and optional remedials, planned around your access windows.

Safety first, clear records, minimal disruption
Common healthcare and public sector testing triggers
- Audit or inspection pressure, you need a clean compliance trail and tidy evidence pack
- Insurance renewal and requests for electrical certificates or recent reports
- EICR renewal, new occupancy, refurbishment, or change of use
- Emergency lighting logs are incomplete, defects keep reappearing, or duration tests are overdue
- Concerns about heat build up in distribution, or ageing boards, thermal imaging helps identify developing issues
- Portable equipment registers have grown, and you need a risk based PAT approach
- Care providers needing evidence that electrical installations are safe, CQC asks for gas and electrical safety certificates as supporting evidence
- NHS or larger public buildings requiring disciplined planning and documentation, HTM 06-01 should be read with BS 7671
