New legislation has been launched by the Scottish Government in relation to electrical safety in private rental properties in Scotland.
From Dec 1st 2015 all rented properties must all have fixed wiring (Electrical Installation Condition Report or EICR) checks carried out at least once every five years by an electrician who is a member of SELECT or NICEIC.
This effects –
