WHY PAT TEST?
P / ORTABLE
PAT testing of electrical appliances needs to be an important part of any health & safety policy. The Health & Safety Executive advise that all electrical appliances within all rentable residential properties and all commercial premises undertake annual PAT testing. With the influx of cheap electrical goods from foreign countries due to globalisation, most of these electrical goods have not undergone as strict a testing procedure as UK manufactured goods. Therefore, the regular safety checks of these products become of paramount importance
A / PPLIANCE
According to the Health & Safety Executive, portable appliances account for 25% of all reportable electrical accidents. To ensure that no danger results from the use of such portable equipment, Electricity at Work regulations place a legal responsibility on employers and employees to comply with the provision set. Following the obligation of the Health & Safety at Work Act (1974), employers should take reasonable practical steps to ensure no danger results from the use of such equipment
T / ESTING
The UK Health and Safety Executive along with insurance companies will expect you to perform PAT testing to ensure that you are compliant with certain regulations including:
-
Health and Safety at Work Act of 1974
-
The Electricity at Work Regulations of 1989
-
The Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations of 1998
-
The Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations of 1999

FAQ's
What is pat testing?
Portable appliance testing is the name of a process in the United Kingdom by which electrical appliances are routinely checked for safety.
PAT testing and the law
The below Health & Safety regulations require that Electrical Appliances are Safe and Regularly Maintained to prevent harm to workers.
-
Health and Safety at Work Act of 1974
-
The Electricity at Work Regulations of 1989
-
The Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations of 1998
-
The Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations of 1999
​New equipment should be supplied in a safe condition and not require a formal portable appliance inspection or test. However, a simple visual check is recommended to verify the item is not damaged.
The frequency of inspection and testing depends upon the type of equipment and the environment it is used in. For example, a power tool used on a construction site should be examined more frequently than a lamp in a hotel bedroom. For guidance on suggested frequencies of inspection and testing, see: Maintaining portable and transportable electrical equipment.
