PAT Testing - Eurotest have a wealth of hands-on experience
that makes us stand above the rest.
PAT Testing, that is to say, Portable Appliance Testing,
is crucial to your company Health & Safety policies and, according
to The Health & Safety Executive, a quarter of reportable electrical
accidents involve portable appliances.
As employers, employees and self-employed people, we all have a
duty to comply with the regulations and to take reasonably practicable
measures to ensure that no danger results from the use of electrical
equipment. Neglect of faulty electrical equipment could cause injuries
to your staff or customers, and you could incur lost income and
hefty fines. Your insurance might even be invalidated.
Eurotest can assist you with a systematic and regular maintenance
programme for inspection and testing.
If your portable electrical appliances can be used or accessed
by staff or the public, or are supplied, hired, sold or serviced,
please contact Eurotest for your free quotation.
Portable electrical appliances are usually defined as being connected
to the mains power supply with a plug and socket, but this is not
a requirement. Any electrical equipment which is portable or transportable
whether it has a plug/socket or not must be tested. Thus includes
hand held equipment such as hair dryers, and stationary equipment
or appliances which may not be fitted with a carrying handle, such
as a refrigerator or space heater.
It might not be immediately obvious whether an appliance should
be regarded as fixed or portable.
Information technology equipment includes electrical equipment
used in offices, shops, factories, schools, hospitals and public
places, such as computers radio telecommunications equipment, fax
machines, photo copiers, and so on.
The Institution of Electrical Engineers, IEE publish the Code
of Practice for In-service Inspection and Testing of Electrical
Equipment and this is Eurotest's UK basis for Portable Appliance
Testing.
