Questions
What is PAT testing?
Portable Appliance Testing involves inspecting and testing electrical equipment to ensure safety compliance. We perform visual checks and electronic tests on appliances that can be moved while plugged in.
How often should appliances be tested?
Testing frequency depends on workplace environment. Most businesses test annually, while high-risk environments like construction sites require testing every 3-6 months.
Does PAT testing affect insurance?
Most insurers expect compliance with safety regulations. Untested equipment could invalidate claims related to electrical faults, so we recommend regular testing.
Should new equipment be tested?
New appliances generally don't require testing in their first year, but we recommend visual inspections. Our engineers have found new equipment that failed safety standards during initial checks.
What happens if an appliance fails?
Failed items are immediately marked and reported to site supervisors. We advise on necessary repairs or replacements while providing documentation for compliance records.
Who can perform PAT testing?
Competent persons with appropriate training can conduct testing. Our engineers hold City & Guilds Level 3 qualifications and have extensive experience across various industries.
