PAT Testing for businesses in Kettering, Corby, Market Harborough and the Surrounding areas
An introduction to 'PAT testing'
The Health and Safety Executive states that 25% of all reportable electrical accidents involve portable appliances. The Electricity at Work Regulation (1989) placed a legal responsibility on employers, employees, and self-employed persons to comply with the provisions of the regulations and take ‘reasonably practicable’ steps to ensure that no danger results from the use of such equipment.
How often do I need to have it done?
PAT testing is not just an annual check by a qualified person, frequencies vary from testing once a month, to once every four years.
In addition the employer (or duty holder) should carry out formal visual inspections.
Most businesses request to have this undertaken once a year.
What do I get ?
You will receive a itemised report of all items inspected along with a certificate of compliance.
Any faults or failures will usually be repaired on site at the time of testing.
