EICR testing in Newton Abbot
If you are a landlord with a property in Newton Abbot, you are legally required to hold a valid EICR no more than five years old. Our NICEIC-approved team carries out EICR testing across Newton Abbot and TQ12, with same-day availability for urgent requirements.
David Moore, our M&E Installations Manager, holds City and Guilds 2391-52 Electrical Inspection and Testing, the qualification that becomes a requirement for all EICR contractors from October 2026. Booking your Newton Abbot EICR with M&E Contrax means using an engineer who meets the incoming standard now, not someone who will need to adapt to it later.
EV charging
EV charger installation in Newton Abbot
Home EV charging is one of the most common domestic electrical jobs we carry out in Newton Abbot. A 7kW wall-mounted charger needs a dedicated circuit from your consumer unit, cable routed to the parking area or garage, and correct earthing for the charger type. Our NICEIC-approved team installs and certifies the full EV charger circuit, not just the charger unit itself.
If you also have solar panels or are planning them, a solar-diverting smart charger such as a Zappi can route surplus solar generation into your car during the day. We design solar and EV charging as integrated systems for Newton Abbot homeowners.

FAQs
Newton Abbot FAQs
For emergency electrical faults, we aim to attend the same day. For planned work, lead times depend on the scope. Because we are based in Newton Abbot, response times are typically faster than for electricians travelling from further afield.
Yes. All notifiable electrical work is self-certified and notified to building control under Part P. You receive an Electrical Installation Certificate or Minor Works Certificate for all notifiable work, and a Building Regulations Compliance Certificate where required.
Common signs in Newton Abbot’s older properties include rubber-insulated cable (which becomes brittle and dangerous with age), round-pin sockets, fuse boards with rewirable fuses rather than circuit breakers, and persistent tripping or flickering. An EICR inspection will confirm the condition of the wiring and identify what, if anything, needs attention.
