Sending EDIS system emails to Hotmail, Outlook and Live email accounts has been unblocked.
Unfortunately sending emails from EDIS system to addresses hosted by Microsoft has been blocked for approximately 2 months. The reason for the delay in resolving the issue was that initially it was not clear why the emails were bouncing and Microsoft not very co-operative in clearing out the issue.
On 5Nov2020 we managed to resolve the issue and all Hotmail, Outlook and Live accounts should now have access to the EDIS system.
An article that shares some of our experiences at the priorities and requirements when undertaking fixed wire testing and reporting, and at some of the pitfalls, if best practice is not followed. This article appears in the June 2020 edition of the Health Estates Journal.
Electrical inspection and testing projects for large estates and buildings are carried out every 5 years or incrementally with the aim of testing the entire building over 5 year period. The testing follows the BS7671 format, however the outcome and results of the testing are often confusing and ambiguous. The result is that the key question: "Is the building electrically compliant?" cannot be easily answered. EDIS takes care of this issue.
EDIS is used to create electrical condition reports, new installation certificates and minor work certificates. Large and small organisations use EDIS to manage electrical inspection and testing projects.
Enterprise customers who want to see the system in action can request a web demo here, all you will need is a phone and internet connection for your PC.
The demo will cover:

Our observation over the last 10 years is that fixed wire testing electrical contractors, engineers and electricians are skilled and competent. However, another observation is that electrical testing programmes for large buildings and estates are fraught with issues such as incomplete testing, incomplete documentation, lack of transparency, disagreement on scope and completeness of work, tasks that are difficult to track and manage - all this leads to dissatisfied customers
