FAQ
FAQ
FAQ
What is PAT Testing?
PAT testing, or Portable Appliance Testing, involves checking electrical appliances for safety to ensure they meet UK electrical safety standards. This includes visual inspections and electrical tests to check for faults.
Is PAT testing a legal requirement?
PAT testing itself isn't explicitly required by law, but the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 mandates that all electrical equipment in the workplace must be safe. PAT testing is a common way to demonstrate compliance with these regulations.
How often should PAT testing be undertaken?
There's no fixed frequency set by law, but it depends on the equipment's environment, usage, and type. Typically, office equipment might be tested every 2 to 4 years, while construction site tools might need annual testing.
How is the PAT test performed?
During a PAT test, a series of checks are performed including a visual inspection for damage or misuse, and electrical tests to measure earth continuity, insulation resistance, and appliance functionality.
What happens if I don't PAT test?
Non-compliance with electrical safety could lead to fines, legal action, insurance issues, and most importantly, it increases the risk of electrical accidents, which could harm employees or customers and damage property.
Does the size of my business matter?
No, all businesses, regardless of size, are required to ensure their electrical equipment is safe. The scale of testing might vary, but the obligation to maintain safety does not.
