What is PAT Testing?
PAT stands for Portable Appliance Testing. It’s a safety procedure used to check electrical appliances for defects, wear, and other issues that could pose a fire or electric shock risk.
Our PAT checks include a full visual inspection and electronic testing of each portable appliance, ensuring they are safe to use and compliant with workplace or landlord regulations.
Common items tested include:
- Kettles, toasters, and microwaves
- Extension leads and chargers
- Desktop computers and monitors
- Printers, heaters, and fans
- Hairdryers, lamps, and other plug-in devices
