BS 7430-Compliant Earthing Inspections for Operational Assets Across the UK
Independent earthing system inspections and site testing to verify electrical safety, compliance, and reduce risk across operational environments.
UK-wide services for power earthing systems across substations, renewables, utilities, industrial sites, and data centres.
Our Capabilities
We carry out earthing inspections in accordance to BS 7430 and other relevant standards, including BS EN 50522, BS EN 61936 and BS EN 7671. Our specialist earthing coordinators provide:
- Visual inspection of earthing and bonding arrangements
- Earth continuity and bonding verification
- Soil resistivity testing
- Fall of Potential (FoP) testing
- Earthing electrode & grid testing
All testing is planned with consideration for live operation environments and site safety requirements
When Are Earthing System Inspections Required?
Annual and periodic inspections for power earthing systems are commonly required:
- As part of routine electrical safety inspection programmes
- To demonstrate ongoing compliance for operational assets
- Following system modifications or asset upgrades
- After fault events or safety incidents
- As part of audit, due diligence, or asset condition assessments
Inspection frequency and scope are typically determined through a risk-based approach aligned with asset criticality and site conditions.
