The document that you fill in is called EICR Electrical Installation Condition Report. In other words you are inspecting the installation and doing a report on its overall condition. However the overall exercise is called Periodic Report, as daft as it seems.

Not daft at all, because it is in fact called a periodic inspection (which is what you are doing) and not a periodic report.

The equivalent documentation issued following the periodic inspection, which was previously referred to as a Periodic Inspection Report for an Electrical Installation is now referred to as an Electrical Installation Condition Report.
