Benefits of PAT Testing

  • PAT tests help decrease the probability of electrical accidents.
  • They ensure the safety of electrical appliances provided to tenants in rental properties.
  • They decrease the likelihood of workplace fires.
  • Routine PAT tests can extend the lifetime of appliances.
  • By undergoing risk-appropriate testing, you can ensure compliance with UK regulations.
  • Regular PAT tests contribute to maintaining a positive relationship with your insurance company.

Our Thorough PAT Testing Procedure

As an experienced PAT testing company in Enfield, we have divided our procedure into three discrete phases to ensure maximum output:

Phase 1: Formal Inspection

Our electricians inspect all the appliances visually, ensuring they are sound and there are no loose electrical circuits. They follow a detailed and thorough protocol to ensure they do not miss even the tiniest detail. They perform the following checks:

  • Signs of burns or deterioration on the plug and sockets.
  • Ensuring all the electrical circuits are safe and tight at their positions.
  • Damages, burns or cuts on any exposed wires.
  • External or internal corrosion or any visible damages on the appliance.
  • Residual current testing for all the appliances.

Phase 2: Using a Portable Appliance Tester

In this phase, they will use PAT testing equipment for a more comprehensive and deep assessment of your appliances. We employ licenced and highly trained professionals capable of carrying out these assessments. With a PAT tester, they assess:

  • Insulation resistance of the appliance
  • Earth Continuity
  • Lead Polarity.

After performing these checks, they will flag the appliance as safe or unsafe to use. They can also issue a PAT testing certificate for your appliances.

Phase 3: Documentation

After completing the PAT electrical testing procedure, they will generate a complete report including all the important information, such as:

  • Number of equipment tested
  • Details of performed tests
  • List of faulty appliances
