The Landlords and Tenants Act tells us we have to ensure the electrical installation is safe at the beginning of a tenancy and, maintained in that state throughout the tenancy.
How do we manage this:
A standard 5 / 10 yearly inspection regime which does not account for multiple tenancy changes?
A safety visual inspection at the change of each tenancy?
Could we rely on the tenancy agreement that clearly states the tenant should not carry out any electrical work in the property which therefore means we don’t have to check as we’re covered under the agreement?
Your views would be great on this one.
