What is PAT Testing?
Portable Appliance Testing (PAT) involves the examination and testing of electrical appliances and equipment to ensure they are safe to use. This process helps identify potential electrical faults that could lead to accidents or fires, ensuring your workplace remains safe.
Why is PAT Testing Essential for Your Business?
Legal Compliance: The Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 and the Electricity at Work Regulations 1989 require employers to ensure that electrical equipment is maintained in a safe condition. Regular PAT testing demonstrates due diligence in maintaining electrical safety standards.
Safety Assurance: Regular inspections help prevent electrical hazards, reducing the risk of fires, electric shocks, and other accidents that could endanger occupants and disrupt business operations.
Insurance Requirements: Many insurance policies mandate up-to-date PAT testing as part of their terms. Failure to comply can result in invalidated coverage, leaving you unprotected in the event of an incident.
Our PAT Testing Process
Visual Inspection: We examine each appliance for visible signs of damage or wear that could affect safety.
Electrical Testing: Using calibrated testing equipment, we perform a series of tests to assess the integrity and functionality of your electrical appliances.
Labelling: Each tested appliance is labelled with a pass or fail sticker, indicating its safety status and the date of the test.
Detailed Reporting: Upon completion, we provide a comprehensive report outlining the test results for each appliance, along with any recommendations for remedial actions.
Remedial Services: Should any faults be detected, our team is equipped to carry out necessary repairs or advise on replacements to ensure all appliances are safe for use.
