When does a renter get a copy of the electrical safety check?

Within seven days of the check being carried out. The rental provider must give the renter a copy of the electrical safety check record within seven days of it being done, on request or as required under the rules. It is a short window, so the practical approach is to have the documentation sent through as soon as the electrician provides it rather than treating it as an administrative task for later. If a property is managed by an agent, confirm who is responsible for passing it on — this is a step that regularly falls between the rental provider and the agent, and the obligation sits with the rental provider regardless of who was supposed to action it.
