What is PAT Testing?
PAT Testing (Portable Appliance Testing) is the process of visually and electrically testing any electrical equipment for safety whether for work or personal use.
The reason we have PAT Testing is to ensure that an appliance is electrically safe for all those who use it. We visually check the appliance for any defects like damage or missing components. The appliance goes through a number of electrical checks such as continuity, insulation resistance and polarity.
It is essential that all electrical appliances are checked yearly to ensure your safety and others who may use the appliance. Electrical items such as; electrical tools, appliances, power leads, extension leads and all other workplace and home electrical equipment should receive a yearly check.
Every year in the UK there are numerous work place related deaths. Many of these are caused by electrocution.
Almost all of these could have been prevented if the electrical item in question was PAT Tested early.
The Electricity at Work Regulations 1989 require that any electrical equipment that has the potential to cause injury is maintained in a safe condition.
Portable electrical equipment must be maintained to prevent danger.
