Importance Of Periodic Electrical Property Inspection

Over time, we have often discussed getting a property inspected before purchasing a property or before getting it listed for a sale, a pre-handover, or an after-sale inspection. 

So today, let's roll our eyes to another dimension of a property inspection- Periodic Property Inspection. 

Most of the time, inspections occur before a property deal is done. But here, it's a contrary scenario. In such cases, owners not only take over the ownership of the place but also use the property for their residential or commercial needs. A periodic property snagging process is usually a systematic process that occurs at regular intervals. When constructed, properties are built to go long-standing for a sustainable period (generally for 5-7 years). 

Can anything last forever?
It's a sure thing that nothing is permanent!
And keeping construction lasting for a long term involves timely maintenance at regular intervals. 
Sticking today's discussion over a segment of this periodic inspection, let us discuss a few notable things regarding a routine electrical inspection in a property. 

Every electrical installation ages with time and needs to be mended at regular time intervals. This check helps in figuring out whether all the electrical points are functioning correctly or not. An electrical inspection is addressed by a qualified electrical engineer who carefully examines the condition of the boards and wiring system of the property. This particular process would comprise of-

1. Identification of electric shocks.
2. Check for the need for earthing or bonding
3. Highlight faulty installations
4. Repairs of existing faults

But why does a property need a periodic electrical snagging inspection?
Here's why!

1.Continuous Use-
Electrical systems are bound to decline with time. Electricity is something that is a constant need for all. Nobody can survive without lights, fans, ACs, and other electrical appliances. People generally think that everything is working fine as long as there are no visible problems. But realities are different. The wiring seems delicate and might be undergoing some fault in the backend. 

2.Health & Safety Issues-
Inspecting the wiring and switchboards at regular intervals helps minimise health hazards and risks associated with electricity. The conscious reason behind regular scrutiny is to safeguard the health of the residents of the property. 

3.Liability-
Suppose there are any existing electrical faults in the property. In that case, any record of previous inspections that have taken place for the property can serve as evidence of having a check on the electrical system and guard the possibility of future electrical expenses. 

4.Cost Effectiveness-
Recurring residential property inspections enhance your knowledge of the different kinds of electrical odds. Your proficiency in things saves you from extra expenses you may fall for. A periodic review will keep you from the massive explorative work in your upcoming inspection.

Maintaining the electrical safety standards helps you comply with the laws of the land too. Hence, a regular property inspection every few years assures the safety of your place, as this can help analyse potential dangers.
