We can also offer limited testing on 415v 3 phase systems, as well as full tests on all 230v systems and 110v systems.


Services

Offices, shops or building sites...we're here to help

The easiest and quickest way of detecting a faulty electrical appliance is to give it a thorough visual and electrical inspection, in other words, a PAT test. The number of times a year that a PAT test needs to be carried out is specified on page 34 of the IEE Code of Practice for In-service Inspection and Testing of Electrical Equipment, 3rd Edition, here are the main points:

  • • Some 110v equipment on a building site is required to be tested weekly, other equipment can be tested every 3 months. Because building sites are such harsh environments, the testing requirement is much more arduous than for other environments.
  • • Other equipment, including equipment used in offices and shops, require testing every 48 months. This includes stationary and IT equipment.

PAT Testing Law

YOU are responsible!...

The law doesn't require you to test your electrical appliances, but it does impose upon you a duty to protect your employees and members of the public that come into contact with your appliances. If your staff or members of the public are injured through badly maintained electrical equipment, YOU will be held responsible! YOU could face a fine of many thousands of pounds, plus time in prison, depending upon the severity of the injury. Remember that ignorance is no excuse in the eyes of the law! Even if you didn't realise that the item was faulty, you will still be liable, and will face the full force of the law!

We firmly believe that the only thing that we go through life with, and the only thing that we can be measured by, is our integrity. Because of this, we are totally above board, and welcome questions about, and observations of, our test procedures. We are more than happy to explain everything to you as we do it, and more than happy to have you watch us as we test...
