PAT Testing is essential for:
- Preventing electrical accidents and fire hazards
- Complying with workplace safety regulations
- Supporting routine maintenance and quality assurance programmes
Portable appliance testing (PAT) ensures electrical equipment is safe to use. Our qualified engineers can perform these tasks through visual inspections and manual inspections using a PAT tester. We also offer training for in-house staff to ensure your equipment is kept compliant.
Portable Appliance Testing (PAT) is a formal inspection process designed to verify the safety of electrical equipment. It involves:
* Testing of all portable appliances, lab instruments, IT equipment, and medical devices
* Visual inspections for plugs, sockets, cables, and casings
* Electrical testing using certified PAT equipment
* Identification of failed items and corrective action recommendations
* Asset tagging and record keeping for compliance and traceability
* Full reporting and documentation for audits, QA reviews, and insurance requirements
For clients seeking greater operational independence, we offer structured PAT Training Courses that empower your staff to carry out ongoing testing internally.
