— Inspections and load audits

Know what your building uses before you spend on it

A site assessment starts with measurement, not assumption. Choose the visit that fits, see the fee for your property before you book, and pay online to confirm your slot.

What it involves

Measured on site, checked against a list

A useful assessment is based on what the building actually uses and how it is wired. Load audits measure consumption at circuit level on site. The result is a scoped recommendation, with cables and protective devices sized to the measured load and, for solar or generator work, capacity sized from real consumption and your backup priorities.

Depending on the job, we look at

  • The existing condition of the installation
  • Connected loads and estimated demand
  • The distribution board and circuits
  • Any faults or hazards found on the visit

Three levels of visit

  1. Option 1

    Inspection only

    An engineer visits, looks at the installation and the job properly, and tells you what happens next.

  2. Option 2

    With a written report

    The visit plus a written report of what was found. Where an inspection is part of the scope, findings are checked against COREN/NEMSA-referenced checklists on site, with photographs attached to each finding.

  3. Option 3

    With electrical plan & drawings

    The visit, the written findings and an electrical plan with drawings prepared by the engineer, for homes, commercial and industrial premises. For solar, the design pack is drawn by the engineer and an architect together.

House with a BQ

A BQ adds ₦20,000 per BQ room for inspection only, ₦30,000 with a report and ₦50,000 with plan & drawings (up to three rooms).

Repairs and solar

A repair call-out is ₦10,000. The call-out fee is deducted from your repair cost. The engineer finds the fault and quotes the repair on site. The assessment fee is deducted from your installation price if you go ahead.

Before the visit

How to get ready

  • Any drawings, bills of quantities or earlier electrical records
  • A list of the equipment you run, especially anything large such as air conditioners, pumps or machinery
  • Notes on when and where faults happen
  • Someone who can give access to the distribution board and the areas to be assessed

Larger commercial, industrial, institutional or development sites can use the project assessment form, which asks for project stage, building size and tender or start dates.

— FAQ

Common questions

View all FAQs →
What is a load audit?

A load audit measures what a building actually uses, at circuit level on site, instead of assuming it. Later sizing decisions for cables, protection, solar or generators are based on that audit.

Is the inspection fee part of an installation quote?

No. The fee covers the visit you book. Any installation or repair work is quoted separately after the visit. For solar, the assessment fee is deducted from your installation price if you go ahead. The call-out fee is deducted from your repair cost.

What if my property is not on the price list?

Estates, multiple units and very large plants are priced after we talk to you. Choose the nearest option in the booking form or use the project assessment form for larger or institutional sites.

How soon is the visit?

Once your payment is confirmed, your appointment and inspection will be carried out within 48 hours of receipt of payment.

Can I get a refund?

Booking and inspection fees are non-refundable once payment has been made. Please check the service, date, time and address before you pay. If something needs to change, contact us before the visit.
