PAT Testing

‍

Why is PAT Testing Important?

The Electricity at Work Regulation Requires, in Regulation (4)2, that "As may be necessary to prevent danger, all systems shall be maintained so as to prevent, so far as is reasonably practicable, such danger".

Regular inspection of equipment is an essential part of any preventative maintenance programme. The frequency of these checks should be followed from the code of practice for in-service inspection of electrical equipment.

Portable Appliance Testing is a 2-part test. Visual inspection and Electrical test. These tests can vary depending on the class of the item.

‍

A visual inspection is carried out to check for faults / damage to the:

• Plug Casing - (Damaged or scorch marked)

• Damage to the flex of the appliance.

• The wiring of the plug is checked to ensure connections and secure termination

• The fuse rating of the plug is checked

‍

Electrical tests are performed depending on the class of the equipment:

• Insulation test

• Earth bond test

• Earth continuity test

• Touch leakage test

• Leakage test

• Polarity test

The Test results are Recorded, and the electrical item marked accordingly with a pass or fail label. A full report will be issued containing 5 sections- Equipment Register, Visual and Inspection Test Record, Repair Register, Faulty Equipment Register and Test Equipment Record.

‍

What to do if your appliance fails a test?

In most circumstances an appliance that has failed a test is easily repaired on site. Most faults occur during the visual inspection, and can usually be rectified by replacing the Plug, Fuse or Flex. We will discuss options with the client before any repairs are made.

If the item is not repairable, we will inform the client immediately and advise them to take it out of service.
