EICR Valid?

Former Community Member
Former Community Member

Hello,

I recieved an EICR for my Private Rented property from the landord. However, the post code of the address is wrong. Is the EICR still valid? It was done over a year ago, so Is it allowed to be corrected via just changing the post code or do the whole electrics need to be retested/inspected?

    Interesting question but the answer is that the postcode is for the post office to use and is an addition to your address. If you look at the deeds to an older property you will not find a postcode, but this does not change the property identification.

    Good point! Our house has not only changed its name, but its address too.
