Swift, Cost-Effective Rectification
Receiving an unsatisfactory electrical report can put real pressure on your business. At Vanguard Compliance, we understand the urgency — and we are here to help you resolve issues quickly, cost-effectively, and in full compliance with BS 7671.
We will always seek the most logical, cost-effective solution, whether that means upgrading a C2 finding to a C3 where appropriate, or carrying out the necessary remedial work to bring your installation up to the required standard.
Our rapid-response rectification service is designed to get your operations running smoothly again with minimum disruption — often completed on the same visit as the original inspection.
Common Remedial Work We Carry Out
- High earth fault loop impedance (Zs) — bringing impedance within acceptable limits
- Open circuit on ring continuity — locating and repairing ring circuit breaks
- RCD protection not provided where necessary — installation of required RCD protection
- Signs of thermal damage — replacing damaged conductors, terminals, and equipment
- Damage to IP-rated equipment — repair or replacement of enclosures and fittings
- Non-compliant bonding — supplementary and main bonding upgrades
- Outdated wiring systems — partial or full rewiring to current standards

Understanding Observation Codes
When you receive an EICR, findings are coded by severity. Here is what each code means for your next steps:
Danger present — immediate remedial action required before the installation can be used safely.
Potentially dangerous — urgent remedial action required as soon as possible.
Improvement recommended — not immediately dangerous but should be addressed.
Further investigation required — additional testing needed to determine severity.
