Frequently Asked Questions About
PAT Testing
Portable Appliance Testing, commonly known as PAT Testing, involves the process of examining electrical appliances to ensure their safety. This procedure comprises visual inspections and electronic tests.
PAT Testing is essential for ensuring the safety of electrical appliances. It is particularly crucial for business to fulfil their legal obligations in maintaining high standards of electrical safety.
A thorough assessment of electrical appliances is conducted, including visual inspections of the appliance, its plug, and lead. For Class I* equipment, test signals are injected into the cable and appliance to verify their integrity.
*Class I equipment relies on the presence of an effective protective (earth) conductor for reasons of safety.
Only individuals with the necessary knowledge, skills, and experience should undertake electrical work to prevent potential hazards to themselves and others.
Following the completion of portable appliance inspection and testing, you will receive a comprehensive report containing:
- An inventory listing each appliance type, name, location, and description
- Complete test results for each appliance tested
- A detailed list of any failed items along with an explanation of their failure
- Visible pass or fail labels affixed to each appliance, indicating the inspection date, next test due date, and the inspector’s signature.
