Companies in the United Kingdom are required by law to ensure their employees’ health and safety. PAT testing, or portable appliance testing, is an important aspect of this.
What is a PAT Testing
The practise of evaluating electrical appliances and equipment to ensure that they are fully functional and safe to use is known as PAT testing. It entails a series of visual and electronic tests to determine whether a certain appliance meets the legal requirements for ensuring a high level of electrical safety.
All landlords, employers, and even self-employed persons are required under PAT testing rules to ensure that their portable electrical gadgets are safe and acceptable for their intended purpose. Damage and faults can arise with the usage of any electrical equipment, so it is critical that these devices be examined for safety on a regular basis.
Why You Choose Us?
All of our electricians at ShortCircuit UK have undergone the necessary training to perform PAT testing safely and to the highest possible standard.
Our technicians will visually verify all features of an appliance, including the plug, the lead, and the appliance itself, for any damage or incorrectly marked or wired components, to ensure that it is totally safe. They will also conduct electrical tests if the device is a Class 1 appliance, in which they will inject test signals into the cable and appliance to ensure its safety.
When the PAT testing is finished, you’ll receive a report that lists all of the appliances that were tested, whether they passed or failed, and why.
