The following advice comes from Mahendra Mistry, an Electrical Engineering Specialist with Bureau Veritas:
"When purchasing new equipment from a reputable supplier it must be visually inspected when installed then fully tested after 12 months. Following this the next inspection and testing then will be in accordance with the inspection and testing regime for that class of equipment set by the company. Further information on inspection and testing frequency can be found in the following IEE publication: Code of Practice for In-service Inspection and Testing of Electrical Equipment."
Hope this helps!
