Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What is Portable Appliance Testing (PAT)?
Portable Appliance Testing, commonly known as PAT Testing, is the process of inspecting and testing electrical appliances to ensure they are safe for use. This includes a combination of visual inspections and electronic tests performed on items such as computers, kettles, extension leads, and other equipment that can be moved and plugged in. PAT Testing is an important part of maintaining electrical safety in any environment where appliances are used.
Is PAT Testing a legal requirement in London?
While there is no specific law that states PAT Testing must be carried out, several UK regulations require that electrical equipment is kept in a safe condition. These include the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974, the Electricity at Work Regulations 1989, and the Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations 1998. PAT Testing is widely recognised as the most practical method of meeting these safety obligations, especially for businesses, landlords, and organisations.
How often should PAT Testing be carried out?
The recommended frequency for PAT Testing depends on the type of equipment and the environment in which it is used. For example, office equipment such as computers and printers may only need testing every one to two years, while more frequently used or higher-risk equipment, such as power tools on construction sites, may require testing every three months. A risk-based approach is typically advised, taking into account usage patterns, location, and manufacturer guidelines.
Who is qualified to carry out PAT Testing in London?
PAT Testing should be conducted by a competent person who has the necessary training, knowledge, and equipment to perform the tests safely and accurately. Many businesses in London choose to hire professional PAT Testing services with qualified engineers who are experienced in testing a wide range of appliances and can provide reliable certification and documentation upon completion.
What do I receive after PAT Testing is completed?
Once PAT Testing is complete, you will receive a detailed report listing each appliance tested, the results, and whether it passed or failed. Each item is also labelled accordingly to indicate its test status. In addition, you will be provided with a PAT Testing certificate, which serves as evidence of compliance and may be useful for insurance, landlord requirements, or health and safety inspections.
