Hi
My friend has rented her house out to the same tenants for 20 years.
She has been told by an electrician that she needs a electrical safety certificate  but she thought
she was exempt as they have been there over 7 years.
Any advice please
Tia

No,she's wrong.This is way overdue now,she needs to act promptly to avoid a fine.

Think logically about that... why would the length of time a Tenant has been in situ have any bearing on the electrical installation at a property?

Hmm,it makes you wonder if other important issues have been overlooked. Your friend does need to do her homework.Things have changed a lot in 20 years.
