Keeping track of when fixed wire testing is due is essential, along with subsequent remedial works. This helps you to ensure fixed wire testing is complete on time. It will also stop any confusion when it comes to your building insurance.

Fixed Wire Testing is due on a regular basis, as electrical installations deteriorate. Deterioration can occur due to general wear and tear, corrosion, excessive electrical loading as well as other unavoidable influences.

Dependent on the type of establishment, test frequencies can vary.

- Schools, Colleges, Universities and other educational facilities every five years.
- Buildings that serve the industrial sector every three years.
- Commercial and Retail premises every five years.
- Leisure facilities, as well as cinemas and theatres, are tested every three years.
- Swimming pools are tested once a year.
- Construction sites every six months.
- Petrol stations every three years.
- Marinas once every year.
- Laboratories every five years.

An approved organisation must undertake Fixed Wire Testing by a qualified organisation/individual.

Without testing within the correct time frame, Building Insurance can be invalid. The Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 states that employers are responsible for H&S in the workplace.

The Electricity at Work Regulations 1989 requires precautions against death or personal injury. You can be open to prosecution if people on site are not protected from electrical injuries at work.
