Commercial electrical installation and maintenance
Electrix Electrical looks after commercial premises across Sheffield, Rotherham and South Yorkshire, from a single shop unit to a multi-bay industrial building. We can fit out new premises, extend and reconfigure existing installations, and take on planned maintenance so small problems are fixed before they stop you trading.
We work evenings and weekends where a daytime visit would disrupt the business, and we quote clearly before any work starts.
- Three-phase distribution boards and sub-mains
- Machine, equipment and kitchen appliance wiring
- Data and power containment, trunking and cable management
- Interior, exterior and car park lighting including LED upgrades
- Emergency lighting installation and periodic testing
- Additional sockets, isolators and EV charge points for staff and fleet
Fixed wire testing and compliance
Employers have a duty under the Electricity at Work Regulations to keep electrical systems safe. Periodic inspection and testing of the fixed wiring, reported as an EICR, is how most businesses demonstrate that. We test to BS 7671, report any observations with clear codes and quote for remedial work separately so you can plan it.
We also provide the emergency lighting test certificates and installation paperwork that licensing authorities, landlords and insurers ask for.
Who we work with
Our commercial customers include retail units, cafes and takeaways, pubs and bars, hair and beauty salons, offices, workshops and small manufacturers. If you manage several sites we can set up a maintenance schedule so each is inspected on time.
Frequently asked questions
How often does a commercial property need an EICR?
It depends on the type of premises. Offices and shops are typically tested every five years, while industrial units, pubs and places with higher risk are often on shorter intervals. We advise on the right interval for your building.
Can you work outside our opening hours?
Yes. Most of our commercial installations and testing are arranged for evenings, weekends or quiet periods so trading is not affected.
Do you provide certificates for insurance purposes?
Yes. You receive the Electrical Installation Certificate or EICR, plus emergency lighting certificates where applicable, in a format insurers and landlords accept.
