What our clients say about us
Do I really have to get PAT testing done?
Officially no, but please don’t take that chance – yes, you do. Why? I always use this example: lets say there is an accident at work, and that accident was caused by faulty electrical equipment, wouldn’t you prefer to have some support?
Under UK workplace law you must maintain electrical equipment to be safe, and be able to prove you have done that. A compliant PAT Testing Certificate Report is the best way to do that. If you’re in court, a document that lists the appliances, the locations and the test results that prove the appliance was safe will support you.
Regular PAT testing helps you to comply with the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974, the Electricity at Work Regulations 1989 and many more workplace regulations.
