University of the West of England (UWE) β Electrical Installation Condition Reports (EICRs)

π Bristol
π 2024 – Ongoing
Overview
AOD Electrical is currently delivering electrical inspection and testing services as part of a wider team contracted to complete EICRs across the University of the West of Englandβs (UWE) multi-building estate. This includes a wide range of facilities β academic buildings, administrative spaces, accommodation blocks, and engineering plants.
Scope of Work
- Periodic inspection and testing of fixed wiring systems
- Testing and verification of distribution boards and final circuits
- Coding and documentation of observations in line with BS 7671
- On-site production of electrical layout drawings where none exist
- Marking up and proving circuits across large and complex installations
Process Improvements
Alongside core testing responsibilities, AOD Electrical has contributed to streamlining key processes to support the wider team, including:
- Designing custom documentation and spreadsheets to improve the accuracy, traceability, and organisation of test results and coded observations
- Introducing efficient supplementary checks (e.g., mirror-based breaker inspection) to ensure thorough but non-invasive assessments
- Developing pre-testing survey forms to capture critical site information (e.g., distribution board locations, access constraints, asbestos awareness) β helping testing teams plan and deliver with minimal disruption
