PAT testing frequently asked questions

What is Portable Appliance Testing (PAT)?

PAT is a systematic examination of electrical appliances and equipment to ensure they are safe to use. This process involves visual inspections and testing of the equipment to identify any potential hazards, ensuring compliance with safety regulations.
How often should PAT testing be conducted?

The frequency of PAT testing depends on the type of equipment and its usage. Generally, high-risk equipment used in a commercial environment may require testing annually, while lower-risk items can be tested every two to four years. It’s essential to assess your specific circumstances to determine the appropriate schedule.
What happens if an appliance fails the PAT test?

If an appliance fails the PAT test, it should be taken out of service immediately. Depending on the nature of the fault, it may need to be repaired or replaced. The testing provider will usually provide a detailed report outlining the issues and recommendations for corrective actions.
Can I perform PAT testing in-house?

While it is possible for trained staff to conduct PAT testing in-house, it’s highly recommended to use a qualified and experienced service provider. Professional testers use specialised equipment and have the expertise to ensure thorough and accurate testing, maintaining compliance with safety standards.
What are the consequences of not conducting PAT testing?

Failing to conduct PAT testing can lead to serious safety hazards, including electrical shocks and fires. Additionally, non-compliance may result in legal ramifications, insurance claims being denied, and potential financial liability in the event of an accident. Regular PAT testing is essential for ensuring the safety of employees and the integrity of your business.
