Letter from the Secretary of State for Business

It cannot be clearer than a letter from the Secretary of State for Business, the construction sector is asked to continue working, there is no caveat on what work can or cannot be carried out, there is clear guidance on working in people’s homes during these challenging times from Public Health England. At Spaldwick Electrical we are adhering to the government advice and are full open for business for both domestic and commercial.

16Amp Supply Electrician Hot Tub Jason Pope Lazy Spa Spaldwick Electrical

Hot Tub Supply

Hot tub installation in Cambridgeshire

With the hot weather on its way now is a great time to get a hot tub for the garden.

There are many different types of hot tub, from a blow up lazy spa to a full installed swimspa.

Here at Spaldwick Electrical we can install the electrical supply for you, we will survey your potential installation, looking at the existing consumer unit (fusebox) and where you would like to place the spa.

We will discuss your requirements and aim to supply you with an eloquant solution which has the least visual impact on your garden, but the greatest impact on your spa pleasure. There is nothing to stop you having the electric supply installed way before the spa is coming.

Different Hot Tubs have different power ratings, be sure to discuss this with your hot tub specialist and make sure that you have an installation with enough power, its often work future proofing as the differnece in installation costs between a 13 amp supply and a 32amp supply is not that high.

Give us a call on 07446 965998 and we can discuss your requirements.

Playtimes Fundraiser Lighting

A great big thank you to all of you that contributed to the Playtimes Playgroup lighting fund.

I asked for help funding replacement lights for them and you responded, exceeding target with 24hrs.

It took until yesterday to get the money out and into Playtimes account, so I ordered the lights yesterday and fitted them today. You have made a great difference to this fantastic setting.

I won’t embarrass everyone who donated, you know who you are and I thank you greatly, additional donations came from spaldwick news and Blueline Security Limited thank you all !

Outside Downlighters looking great
Inside LED Batons, more light, less power no flickering
LED emergency lighting, low power and no flickering
Local Hedghog checking out the security lighting

Mandatory Electrical Safety checks in the Private Rented Sector

Landords could be fined up to £30,000 for non compliace

Spaldwick Electrical is fully authorised to complete Landlords Electrical Safety Checks (EICR – Electrical Inspection Condition Report).

New Regulations are coming into force for new tenancies from the 1st July 2020 and for any existing tenancies from 1st April 2021, as they have now been debated in the House of Lords and the House of Commons.

Despite the challenging times we find ourselves in, with much uncertainty and extreme social distancing measures in place due to Covid-19, the Government has issued Guidance which makes it clear that landlords are still required to ensure the electrical safety of their properties. However, the Government acknowledge the restrictions placed on them under the current situation, and on compliance states:

“If a landlord can show they have taken all reasonable steps to comply with their duty under the regulations, they are not in breach of the duty. … A landlord could show reasonable steps by keeping copies of all communications they have had with their tenants and with electricians as they tried to arrange the work, including any replies they have had. Landlords may also want to provide other evidence they have that the installation is in a good condition while they attempt to arrange works.”

The new Regulations require private landlords to ensure their properties are subject to electrical inspection and testing, resulting in a satisfactory report, by a qualified, competent person at intervals not exceeding 5 years. Local Authorities will be responsible for enforcing the new Regulations and can impose a financial penalty of up to £30,000, if they find a landlord is in breach of their duty. Local Authorities also have the power to arrange remedial work to be carried out, with consent from the tenant, if the landlord fails to comply with the remedial notice and then recover the costs from the landlord. The powers that have been given to Local Authorities to enable effective enforcement are strong and show the Government’s commitment to supporting these Regulati0ns. We appreciate that many Local Authorities are under resource pressure, but the ability to impose fines of up to £30,000, which can be retained by the Local Authority to support their enforcement activity will be a great support for them.
