Properties in North Dublin City and what that means for electrical inspection

A mix of Victorian and Edwardian red-brick terraces around Phibsborough, Stoneybatter, Drumcondra, Fairview and East Wall, and large 1930s–1950s housing schemes in Cabra, Artane and Coolock. Clontarf adds bigger period and mid-century family homes along the bay.

Period homes and converted flats often have old wiring, several consumer units and limited earthing, so inspections frequently turn up significant defects. 1930s–1960s houses may have wiring from earlier rewires and older fuse boards without full RCD protection.

What to check before you book a electrical inspection provider

  • Check the contractor is Safe Electric registered (safeelectric.ie)
  • Ask for a Periodic Inspection Report with defects clearly categorised
  • Get repair prices separately from the inspection price
  • For PAT testing, ask for an itemised register with pass or fail results
  • Keep reports for insurance, lettings and sale
