Why PAT Test?

Protect Your Property & Tenants

Faulty electrical appliances are a leading cause of house fires and electric shocks in the UK. PAT testing identifies dangerous appliances before they cause harm. For landlords, regular PAT testing demonstrates your duty of care and protects you from liability claims.

Our thorough testing covers both visual inspection and electronic testing using calibrated PAT testers. Every appliance receives a pass or fail label, and you get a comprehensive digital report for your records.

FAQ

PAT Testing Questions

PAT (Portable Appliance Testing) is the process of inspecting and testing electrical appliances to ensure they are safe to use. It is required for all businesses, landlords, schools, and anyone who provides electrical equipment for others to use. While not legally mandated by a specific Act, health and safety regulations and insurance policies require employers and landlords to maintain safe electrical equipment.
The frequency depends on the type of appliance and its environment. Office equipment typically needs testing every 2-4 years, while construction site tools may need annual or even quarterly testing. We provide a risk-assessment-based schedule tailored to your specific needs and regulatory requirements.
Any appliance with a plug that connects to the mains electricity supply should be PAT tested. This includes computers, printers, kettles, microwaves, extension leads, power tools, chargers, and audio-visual equipment. Fixed appliances and IT equipment with detachable power supplies are also included in most testing regimes.
A typical office with 50 appliances takes approximately 2-3 hours. Larger premises with hundreds of appliances may take a full day or more. We work efficiently to minimize disruption to your business operations and can schedule testing outside of business hours if required.
You receive a detailed PAT testing report including an inventory of all tested appliances, test results for each item, a pass/fail status, any remedial actions taken, and a certificate of compliance. Digital records are provided in PDF format for easy storage and insurance presentation.
PAT testing pricing starts from £1.50 per appliance for larger volumes, with a minimum call-out fee of £75 for smaller jobs. We offer competitive rates for regular contracts, schools, offices, and landlords with multiple properties. Contact us for a tailored quote.
