Inspections are an essential part of operating any property, whether it is a house or a flat.
Mandatory inspections for a house
- Electrical installation inspections

- Solid-fuel boilers
Mandatory inspections for a flat
- Electrical installation inspection
Electrical installations in a flat are subject to mandatory inspection only when a supply point is connected to the grid. A new electrical connection requires an inspection after the connection point has been completed and the electricity meter installed. An existing electrical connection requires an inspection if the original electricity meter has been removed and you need to connect a new one. An inspection is also one of the documents required for final building approval.
