Keeping electrical safety in check

Strengthening our Covid-19 procedures

25th September 2020

As a business, the safety and security of our clients and our staff is our primary concern, so we were delighted to see the release of the NHS Covid-19 app yesterday. We already have very rigorous Covid-19 compliance procedures in place, whereby we wear masks and gloves, regularly hand wash and work with clients to ensure that they either vacate their premises or isolate themselves to avoid close contact. To enhance our procedures even further, all our engineers now have the NHS Covid-19 app on their smartphone, and we’re confident that this will help to keep everyone even safer.

As Mark Smith, owner of MS Electrical comments, embracing new technology is hugely important in the fight against the virus. ‘As soon as the pandemic started we set about compiling a comprehensive set of guidelines to reassure our clients,’ says Mark. ‘As a result, we follow all necessary procedures to ensure that any risk to our clients and our engineers is minimised, and this has been a resounding success to date. To build on this positive situation we immediately made it a policy that all our engineers should have the NHS Covid-19 app on their phone as it will be a great way to provide intelligence and slow the spread of coronavirus. As we are working with a large number of landlords and letting agents it’s not unusual for an MS Electrical engineer to be in and out of up to eight properties in a single day, or for us to be PAT testing or fixed wire testing in a large office with several employees present. We believe that by having the NHS Covid-19 app we are demonstrating our absolute commitment to the continued safety of not only everyone we encounter during our working day but also to our own team.’

At MS Electrical we specialise in keeping electrical safety in check by offering PAT testing and fixed wire testing in Cambridge. Should you have any concerns about your electrical safety please contact us for advice or to request a no-obligation quotation.

Testimonials

MS Electrical Services have recently carried out a number of Fixed Wiring Tests on a range of residential properties managed by ourselves for private landlord clients. The process for arranging these works has proved to be very easy with appointments being confirmed promptly upon request. Attendance at the properties has been reliable and consistent, with agreed times ensuring certainty for tenants and landlords over property access. Feedback from tenants has been that staff attending have been courteous and efficient during visits, and inconvenience and disruption kept to a minimum. Inspection reports are delivered promptly after the visits and follow up works clearly identified and costed with quotations included. Landlord clients advise that they are pleased with the reliability aspect and the completeness of the service. They have also remarked on the efficiency with which things are progressed. In light of the above, Award Property Management Ltd will be delighted to continue to engage MS Electrical Services for this work and have no hesitation in recommending their services to those requesting supplier details from us.
