PAT Testing (Portable Appliance Testing)

 

All PAT testing is carried out in accordance with The Institute of Electrical Engineers code of practice for "In Service Inspection And Testing Of Electrical Equipment."

 

What Is Portable Appliance Testing?

The Inspection and or testing required by law of all portable electrical appliances to assess their operational safety and the safety of personnel operating the equipment.

 

 

What Is Classed As A "Portable Appliance"?

Generally speaking any item of electrical equipment that has a power lead with a plug that is intended to be connected to the mains electricity supply.

 

 

Must This Testing Be Carried Out?

The Electricity At Work Regulations 1989 state "every employer shall ensure that work equipment is maintained in a efficient state, in efficient working order and in good repair"

 

 

 

 

Method Statement/Test Procedure

 

The Sure Test Electrical engineer will report to the client representative on arrival.

 

Testing will be carried out in accordance with the “Code Of Practice for In-Service Inspection and Testing Of Electrical Equipment” second edition 2001.

 

It is the responsibility of the companies’ representative to make all Portable Appliances known to Sure Test Electrical and to ensure they are made available. It is in both parties best interests to allow the testing to be carried out as quickly and as efficiently as possible with a minimum of disruption.

 

Sure Test Electrical will log all equipment on an inventory test log. Detachable mains leads will be tested as separate items.

 

The test engineer will carry out a visual check of the appliance. If the appliance fails the visual inspection the test engineer will carry out minor maintenance in order that the appliance can be tested. This will be charged at the applicable rate (see minor works below).

 

If the appliance passes the visual inspection the engineer will carry out the statutory checks.

 

If the appliance fails any test (including the visual inspection) it will be given a failed identification label and marked as failed in the test log/report.

 

When all testing has been completed the engineer will report to the client representative and make them aware of any equipment that has failed.

 

A report will be generated when the engineer returns to the office a copy of which will be forwarded to the client representative together with an invoice.
