DRA were professional from the first contact. They fixed a time and date with my tenants to complete the PAT test and kept me informed. They turned up on time and left the flat tidy and the tenants happy. I was contacted to advise that everything was completed and the invoice was sent promptly, as requested.As a landlord, it's important that my tenants have minimum disruption to their lives, so I was delighted with the service provided and will definitely by using DRA again.

We are DRA PAT Testing Ltd, established in 2009 by Richard Ayre.
“I am passionate about the importance of high quality PAT being done in businesses, how maintaining safe electrical equipment should never be overlooked; protecting users and your business should always be no 1. But just getting a PAT test done by the lowest bidder is not the way you should go – we’ve got loads of experience of what the lowest bidder does and you need to steer clear – not only will you be NOT getting what you’re paying for, but even after equipment has been “tested” users could still be at risk – paying low amounts means the tester has to work fast to make peanuts, so he does as little as possible, which means you don’t have the protection you think you do – this is why I set up The Portable Appliance Testing Trade Association. DRA PAT Testing is a small local business with a conscience; we respect and value our clients and so ensure we do a thorough job every time. We charge that little bit more to allow us to take the time we need to ensure all your appliances are safe to continue using, so you are protected and so are your users”.

What are the benefits of working with DRA PAT testing?
The Electricity at Work Regulations (EAWR) 1989 and the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 require employers (as ‘duty holders’) to provide a safe working environment in regard to all electrical equipment and systems, regardless of when they were manufactured, installed or brought into use.
Employers, the self-employed and employees all have duties and obligations to comply with the requirements of these regulations, which apply to all places of work, with no exemptions. All electrical systems must be maintained in a safe condition and an important aspect of such maintenance is regular PAT testing of appliances and electrical inspection and testing of the mains wiring system (EICR).
You can do this in-house however most businesses find this impossible. You can PAT test your own equipment but do you have the time, resources and knowledge? If you can trust us at DRA PAT Testing, you will have the peace of mind that your electrical equipment and installation, are safe and compliant. All our inspections are completed to the required standards, at frequencies inline with the latest regulations and guidance.
Every day, we see some scary sights, real death traps, so we can’t encourage you enough to get your electrical equipment PAT tested. Working with us we can help you remove all or most of these issues, so you can be safe in the knowledge your staff are safe, your students are safe, and or your business is safe.

Portable Appliance Testing (PAT)
Traditionally PAT testing is an inspection and testing process carried out on electrical equipment that works off mains power, supplied via a plug and socket. PAT testing consists of checking the plug, cable and appliance are safe to continue using. If it works off mains power then it needs checking to ensure it is safe to use.
Fixed Appliance Testing (FAT)
Fixed Appliance Testing is has become more prominent in recent years after being neglected by PAT testers and electricians alike; as a fixed appliance doesn’t fall into the scope of PAT or EICR. When the plug has been replaced by a ‘fused spur unit’ the appliance may not have been checked in the past. It now needs its own inspection, although not as often.
Microwave Emissions Testing
This is something that is often missed, but of particular importance. A faulty microwave can lead to radiation leakage, which nobody wants to be affected by, so in addition to the PAT test our engineers will check your microwaves are not emitting more than the recommended radiation. We will also check that the internal parts of the oven are ok.
