Electrical Maintenance & Testing
Electrical Maintenance & Testing
What Is Electrical Maintenance?
Electrical maintenance covers all aspects of electrical testing, system monitoring, electrical repairs and element replacement of electrical components or electrical equipment. Electrical maintenance works should always be carried out by an electrical maintenance engineer, who is highly qualified to work with commercial and industrial systems.
BPS Facilities Ltd is the leading provider of electrical maintenance and electrical testing for industrial and commercial properties in South Wales and the rest of the UK. Our team of electrical engineers specialise in all aspects of planned and reactive services, including electrical repairs, emergency electrical repairs, electrical maintenance and electrical testing.
Electrical Maintenance For Industrial & Commercial Properties
Whilst some large-scale commercial buildings and operations have their own in-house electrical maintenance manager to deal with any day-to-day electrical issues, any more serious issues are usually dealt with by engaging the services of specialised commercial contractors; smaller businesses and facilities may find it more financially economical to forge a maintenance contract with local commercial electricians for scheduled electrical maintenance and servicing.
There are several signs that your electrical equipment is failing or your system is suffering from faulty components, which can include:
- Lighting is flickering or going dim
- Burning smells are emanating from switches, electrical outlets or the electrical power supply
- Fuses blowing
- Mild electrical shocks or sparks when using appliances or electrical equipment
- Electrical circuits tripping
- Unusual sounds – crackling, buzzing, sizzling or humming sounds
- Sparks when plugging into a socket
- Warm or discoloured wall plates
Our Electrical Installation Services
At BPS Facilities, we deliver structured electrical installation services for commercial and industrial settings. We ensure all our electrical systems are designed, installed, and tested to the latest regulatory standards. Our work prioritises performance, reliability, and long-term value for your building's facilities.
New Build Installations
We offer complete electrical solutions for new-build developments. From the design stage through to final connection, our expert team manages the full scope of your electrical installation requirements. Each electrical system is built around your layout, load demands, and intended use, supported by modern controls, containment systems, and power distribution.
At BPS Facilities, we collaborate closely with architects, construction teams, and onsite managers to deliver compliant infrastructure that’s ready for handover. We coordinate electrical installations for lighting, emergency systems, and electrical appliances, ensuring your building operates safely from day one.
System Upgrades and Rewiring
Outdated systems can compromise safety and disrupt your day-to-day operations. Our skilled team at BPS Facilities begins with a full assessment to identify your risk points and inefficiencies. If your setup is no longer fit for purpose, we recommend a full or partial rewire, incorporating modern protections, circuit upgrades, and revised layouts to prevent electrical faults.
We deliver upgrades with minimal disruption. From control panels and containment to final circuits and socket placement, every update is planned to suit your building’s size, use, and needs. Whether you're refurbishing a workspace or scaling up your capacity, our specialist engineers handle your upgrade using durable materials and clean working practices.
Emergency and External Lighting Systems
Reliable lighting is essential for both safety and visibility. At BPS Facilities, we design and install structured lighting systems tailored to your commercial use, focusing on emergency lighting installations that meet British standards and support full compliance. Our electrical systems are configured for automatic or manual operation, depending on your requirements.
Our reputable engineers install emergency circuits and battery-backed luminaires to maintain visibility in your corridors, stairwells, and exit points during outages or critical events. We test and label every unit to ensure operational confidence and emergency readiness. We also deliver security lighting for building exteriors, loading bays, and staff entrances.
Electrical Distribution and Switchgear
Your power distribution must be dependable, adaptable, and safe. We install distribution systems that support the performance and safety of your site’s full electricity supply. At BPS Facilities, all our electrical systems are tested and commissioned with full documentation, giving you clarity and control over your power infrastructure.
We manage switchgear replacement and upgrades, replacing outdated panels with modern alternatives that meet the latest safety guidelines. Our work includes circuit segregation, meter integration, load balancing, and labelled layouts to simplify ongoing maintenance. Distribution boards, busbars, and isolators are all selected and installed according to your operational capacity and building structure.
Safety and Security Installations
A safe building requires more than power. You need protective systems that keep your occupants and property secure. At BPS Facilities, we carry out bespoke electrical installation work for safety systems, including bonding, detection, and advanced security systems.
Equipotential bonding ensures that all metalwork in your premises maintains the same electrical potential, reducing the risk of shock during faults. We install and verify bonding throughout kitchens, plant rooms, and utility areas as part of our structured approach.
We also supply and fit CCTV, access control units, and automated detection devices. From multi-camera systems to controlled entry points, we create dependable protection with integrated functionality. Whether you're managing high-traffic facilities or sensitive areas, our systems are designed to safeguard your staff, equipment, and visitors.

If your business or commercial property is showing any signs of faulty electrical equipment or electrical hazards, it is of the utmost importance to get in touch with a qualified electrician, as faulty equipment and incorrect wiring can cause fires and electric shocks to anyone touching it. If an electrical system short circuits or experiences surges, electrical fires can break out, wiring can be damaged (which can cause a future fire risk), as well as damaging electrical equipment within the same circuit, which can also cause issues and significant expenses for your business down the road. If you’re a business owner whose business is suffering from the signs of faulty electrical equipment then you should get in touch with BPS Facilities by calling 02920 484 114 today.

Is Electrical Testing A Legal Requirement?
It is not a legal requirement for electrical testing to be carried out, however, as an employer, you are legally required to keep your entire electrical system in good and safe working order at all times according to The Electricity At Work Regulations 1989, which is why it is imperative that regular electrical testing and electrical maintenance is carried out.
Visual inspections of your electrical system are not sufficient in monitoring the safety of your electrical circuits; our electrical engineers at BPS Facilities use electrical testing equipment in order to identify and diagnose any issues with your control systems and related electrical equipment.
If you choose to have your business’s electrical systems inspected and tested, you can receive an Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) – an inspection of the condition of an existing electrical installation in a commercial building that is carried out by a qualified and certified electrician. During an EICR assessment, any related electrical wiring and electrical components are also tested. The resulting EICR will let you know of any deficiencies in your electrical system, as well as letting you know of any potential risks to health and safety that could be occurring as a result of any faulty electrics.
BPS Facilities’ electrical engineers are certified to carry out EICRs and can help you ensure that your business’s electrics are working as they should. To book an EICR assessment, get in touch with our Cardiff-based customer service team who can arrange this for your business by calling 02920 484 114, or sending an enquiry online here today.
