What is PAT Testing
Portable Appliance Testing involves a combination of visual inspections and electrical tests on plug‑in equipment such as:
Computers and IT equipment
Kettles, microwaves and kitchen appliances
Heaters and fans
Power tools and extension leads
Chargers and other portable devices
The aim is to identify damaged, faulty or unsafe equipment so it can be repaired or removed from use.
Our PAT Testing Service
Site visit & planning
We work with you to schedule testing at a time that minimises disruption to your staff, tenants or operations. For larger sites, we can agree a phased approach.
Visual inspection & testing
Our engineers carry out visual checks and use calibrated test instruments to assess the safety of each appliance as required.
Results & labelling
Each item is labelled to show it has been tested and whether it passed or failed. We provide a clear report so you have a record for your health and safety files and insurers.
Advice on remedial actions
Where issues are found, we explain what needs to be done – whether that’s repair, replacement, or more frequent checks for certain equipment or environments.
Who Needs PAT Testing?
PAT testing is commonly carried out for:
Offices and commercial premises
Shops, cafés, pubs and restaurants
Schools, nurseries and community buildings
Landlords with rented residential properties
Workshops, warehouses and industrial units
If your organisation uses portable electrical equipment, regular PAT testing is an important part of your fire safety services and general health and safety management.
