PAT Testing W1 Mayfair
Properties in the desirable W1 Mayfair area of London could be running the very real risk of experiencing electrical fires; having tenants or employees electrocuted; and be generally exposed to electrical damage, all because they have not had regular Portable Appliance Testing (PAT Testing) carried out. Electrical appliances need to be checked regularly for safety because, as with all products, they become more dangerous and less efficient throughout the duration of their lifespan. PAT Testing shows how much deterioration has occurred and lets you know if you need to buy new appliances for your property.
There are a wide variety of rules and regulations regarding the safety of electrical appliances. These can be found through various sources online such as www.legislation.gov.uk, with particular focus on legislation such as the Landlords and Tenants Act (1985), Electrical Equipment (Safety) Regulations (1994), Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations (1999) et al. All of the legislation about portable appliances can be complied with via PAT Testing.
After you have filled in our online form, a PAT Tester will come to your property and begin a series of checks on electrical appliances which weigh less than 18kg. These appliances can range from cookware such as electric kettles up to bigger appliances such as photocopiers and vending machines. PAT Testing will include visual inspections of the appliances, the way they are used and where they are used. This will give a very good indication of how safe the appliances are as wear and tear will be shown on the casing, cords and plugs. The plug head will be checked for wiring and fusing to see if they have been installed correctly. The internal check will be done by plugging the appliances into a PAT Testing Machine. The PAT Testing Machine will check the internal components of the appliances to make sure they are functioning properly. If the appliances pass, they are safe for use. If they fail they must be decommissioned immediately.
