Electrical Safety Testing
|
By law you must take precautions against the risk of death or personal injury from electricity in work activities (Electricity at Work Regulations 1989).
Neglecting faulty electrical systems could result in injuries to your employees, lost income and fines if found in breach of your statutory responsibilities. In some instances it may even invalidate your insurance claims.

PAT Testing
The PAT test is an important verification tool. The whole process is known as "in-service inspection and testing of electrical equipment." This routine check of all electrical appliances ensures that all your electrical installations meet the strictest safety requirements!
The PAT test complies with all legal requirements and may even qualify you for a discount on your insurance premiums, as it proves how seriously you take safety issues. In the event of any damages claims, your PAT certificate proves that your electrical installations have been tested and certified.
PAT testing includes:
- visual inspections
- earth-bond tests
- insulation-resistance tests
- flash testing
- load tests
- earth-leakage test
- functional checks
Non-compliance with PAT standards can lead to severe punishments for corporations and landlords, ranging from fines to imprisonment. We therefore recommend that all relevant portable appliances are tested regularly.
We look forward to discussing PAT testing with you in more detail!
