The PAT test covers all electrical appliances in the property, and should be undertaken on a regular basis to ensure that appliances do not become unsafe and cause harm in the future. Examples of objects eligible for PAT testing in the W12 Shepherds Bush area are electrical appliances such as PCs, laptops, monitors, printers, electric kettles etc. The PAT Test even includes some larger appliances such as vending machines and photocopiers. This comprehensive coverage of electrical appliances makes getting regular checks a necessity for any Health and Safety policy in your workplace or rental property.
There are two stages to the Portable Appliance Test which combine to ensure that all electrical appliances are safe for use. The rigour of the testing will vary slightly depending on the potential for an appliance to develop a fault, but there will always be a visual test to check for general wear and tear of the appliance casing, a check on the wiring and the fuse, and a check to make sure the appliance is in a safe environment for use. The second aspect of the PAT test features electrical testing to check whether there are any potential faults in the product, and a simple “Pass” or “Fail” sticker will be produced dependant on the results of the two checks. There will also be a report issued to explain the results of each appliance.
