What is Portable Appliance Testing (PAT)
Portable Appliance Testing (PAT Testing) is an essential procedure to ensure that electrical appliances are safe to use and comply with health and safety regulations. This involves a combination of visual inspections and electrical testing to detect hazards like faulty wiring, damaged plugs, or insufficient insulation. PAT Testing evaluates three key aspects of electrical equipment:
– Insulation Resistance
– Earth Continuity
– Polarity
Importance of a PAT Test Electrical Inspection
PAT Testing is crucial for identifying hazards and minimizing risks of accidents, fires, or equipment malfunctions. It ensures compliance with legal requirements, protects people, and provides peace of mind, making workplaces, homes, and facilities safer while avoiding costly liabilities.
Legal Requirements
Electrical Compliance & Certification
UK law mandates that employers, landlords, and business owners ensure their electrical equipment is safe. Legal obligations include compliance with:
–The Electricity at Work Regulations of 1989
–Health and Safety at Work Act of 1974
–The Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations of 1999
-The Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations of 1998

Office equipment: Every 2-4 years for stationary items; annually for portable devices.
Rental properties: Before new tenants move in and periodically as required.
Schools & Public Spaces: Typically annually or as indicated by a risk assessment.
Risk-based approach: Frequency depends on equipment type, usage, and operating conditions.
Cost
PAT Testing costs depend on factors like the number of appliances and location. Rates typically range from £1.50 to £5.00 per item, with discounts available for bulk testing. Additional fees may apply for urgent or specialised services.

Counterfeit electronic appliances can pose significant safety risks. Identifying authentic products is simplified with reliable PAT Testing tools.
