Protect your business, staff, and equipment with a proactive electrical maintenance plan. At Solid Electrics, we help Southampton businesses stay safe, compliant, and operational.
Electrical Maintenance is Critical for Every Southampton Business
No matter the industry—retail, hospitality, offices, healthcare, or industrial units—electricity is at the core of every operation. Yet it’s often neglected until something goes wrong. A reliable electrical maintenance plan ensures your business runs smoothly, safely, and within legal requirements.
At Solid Electrics, we provide planned and reactive maintenance for local businesses across Southampton, helping owners avoid costly downtime and unexpected repairs.
What Is an Electrical Maintenance Plan?
An electrical maintenance plan is a scheduled programme of inspections, testing, servicing, and minor repairs tailored to your business premises. It’s designed to:
Identify faults before they become critical
Extend the life of electrical systems and appliances
Keep your business legally compliant
Protect staff, customers, and stock
Reduce emergency call-outs and insurance risks
A good plan goes beyond box-ticking—it provides real-world protection for your operations.
Why Your Business Can’t Afford to Go Without One
Running without a maintenance plan leaves your business vulnerable. From overloaded circuits and ageing distribution boards to unsafe emergency lighting or non-functional fire alarms, problems can arise silently—until it’s too late.
Common risks we identify during routine visits include:
Damaged or overheating sockets
Poorly maintained consumer units
Loose connections inside commercial lighting
Expired emergency lighting batteries
Uninspected hardwired appliances
Tripping circuits affecting POS systems or refrigeration
Don’t wait for equipment to fail—prevent issues before they disrupt your business.

Solid Electrics is NAPIT registered, delivering compliant electrical maintenance and inspection services for Southampton businesses.
Legal Compliance – It’s Not Optional
As a business owner, you’re legally responsible for the electrical safety of your premises under the Electricity at Work Regulations 1989. Many insurers now require documented evidence of routine inspection and testing. We help you stay compliant with:
Fixed Wire Testing (EICRs)
Emergency lighting tests
Fault reporting logs
Consumer unit inspections
Load testing and thermal imaging (on request)
Failure to maintain your system could invalidate your insurance or lead to legal consequences in the event of an accident.
