Previous Jobs & Case Studies

A look at some of the recent work we've completed across Greater Manchester — from new fuseboards with arc fault protection to full fire alarm and emergency lighting systems. Every job is carried out to current standards and fully certified.

Brand-New Fuseboard with Arc Fault Protection for a Nursery

A local nursery needed its ageing consumer unit replaced to meet the higher safety expectations of a premises full of young children. We installed a brand-new fuseboard fitted throughout with Arc Fault Detection Devices (AFDDs).

  • Full new metal consumer unit to the latest BS 7671 18th Edition standard
  • AFDD (arc fault detection) protection on final circuits to guard against fire caused by damaged or loose wiring
  • RCBO protection on every circuit so a single fault never takes out the whole board
  • Surge protection (SPD) fitted to protect sensitive equipment
  • Full circuit testing, labelling and an Electrical Installation Certificate issued digitally

Arc fault protection is strongly recommended in higher-risk premises such as nurseries and care settings, and is increasingly expected under the Wiring Regulations. It detects the dangerous arcing that ordinary breakers miss — one of the leading causes of electrical fires.

New Fire Alarm & Emergency Lighting System for an HMO

For a House in Multiple Occupation (HMO), we designed and installed a complete life-safety package: a mains-powered fire alarm system to BS 5839 and emergency lighting to BS 5266, wired back to dedicated protected circuits.

  • Grade A / LD2 fire detection and alarm system designed to BS 5839
  • Maintained and non-maintained emergency lighting to BS 5266 covering escape routes
  • Dedicated, clearly-labelled protected circuits at the distribution board
  • Commissioning, testing and hand-over documentation for the landlord
  • Fire alarm and emergency lighting certificates issued for compliance and insurance

HMOs carry strict fire-safety duties. We combine the EICR, fire alarm and emergency lighting into one coordinated visit so landlords get everything they need to satisfy the council and their licence conditions.

Commercial Distribution & EICR Testing

Periodic inspection and testing across a commercial building, including main distribution, changeover and standby supply arrangements — all documented in a clear, jargon-free condition report.

  • Full EICR on commercial distribution boards and final circuits
  • Testing of main isolation, changeover and standby (generator) arrangements
  • Colour-coded fault codes so the client knows exactly what needs attention
  • Remedial works quoted up front — often carried out the same day
  • Digital certificate and schedule of results issued within 24 hours

Whether it is a shop, office or larger commercial site, we keep disruption to trading to a minimum and give you a certificate you can rely on.

We Work Alongside Building Control

On larger installations and refurbishments we work hand-in-hand with your local authority Building Control department (or an approved inspector) to make sure the electrical work is signed off correctly first time.

By involving Building Control and considering both current and upcoming building regulations from the outset, we help you avoid the costly situation of having to revisit — or even redo — work after a project is finished. Everything is documented, notified and certified as we go.

  • Notifiable work registered and certified under Part P of the Building Regulations
  • Coordination with Building Control officers and, where relevant, the council
  • Installations designed to meet current and anticipated future regulations
  • No nasty surprises or extra costs once the project is complete
  • Full certification pack handed over for your records and any future sale
  • Fire alarm systems to BS 5839

    Designed, installed, tested and certified for homes, HMOs and commercial premises.

  • Emergency lighting to BS 5266

    Keeping escape routes safely lit during a power failure.

  • Fire safety certificates

    Documentation to demonstrate compliance to your council, landlord licence or insurer.

Fire Safety & Building Regulations Compliance

Fire safety is now a central part of the building regulations, particularly for rented homes, HMOs and commercial buildings. Landlords and owners have a legal duty to ensure adequate fire detection, alarm and emergency lighting provision is in place and properly maintained.

Electro Sure can install, test and provide the fire safety certificates you need to comply with the relevant building regulations and fire safety requirements — giving you and your tenants genuine peace of mind.
