Portable Appliance Testing (PAT) is an important part of a company's or individual's responsibility to health and safety. This is done using a series of specialised testing procedures on your portable appliances.
We pride ourselves on tailoring our service to the clients' needs, and we believe in being up front about how we do business; our customers don't get a nasty shock when they get the bill - our prices are all-inclusive and we don't charge extra for things like replacing fuses and rewiring plugs.
We start with a visual inspection checking for:
Then a series of tests (depending on the class of equipment), they may include
A portable appliance is any equipment which is powered between 40 and 240 volts and which is connected to the electrical mains through a plug, usually 13 amp, but we are also able to test both 110 volt and 240 volt wet weather equipment.
The law states that all equipment must be in a safe condition and fit for use. See
Regulation 4 (2) of the Electricity At Work Regulations 1989.With a regular maintenance schedule in place PAT Testing ensures that all equipment is safe and fit for use.
In the Health & Safety At Work Act 1974, all employers have a legal duty to provide safe plant and equipment and every employer must ensure that equipment must be maintained in an efficient state, in efficient working order and good repair.
This will be dependant on your company's risk assessment and maintenance schedule. If your company does not have these documents for PAT testing we can help with this.
Insurance companies assume that when giving insurance cover to a business, the owners of that business are complying with all regulations necessary. An insurance company may reduce, delay or even refuse to pay on a claim for damage if an appliance that has not been tested has caused the damage.
