PAT Testing Certificate – Same-Day Certificates Available

A PAT Testing Certificate is an official record confirming that your electrical equipment has been inspected and tested to ensure it is safe to use. It is a reference guide that details every appliance tested, what tests have been conducted, what the results were and what maintenance has been carried out.

It demonstrates that you have taken appropriate steps to comply with UK electrical safety and workplace health & safety regulations.

Your PAT Testing Certificate may be requested by:

• Insurers
• Fire risk assessors
• The Fire Brigade when they inspect business premises
• Local Authorities
• Environmental health
• Auditors and inspectors
• Regulatory bodies
• etc.

If your PAT Testing is kept up to date then you are going to be complying with the likes of ISO, CQC, Ofsted, local authorities, HMO Landlords Licenses, CHAS, etc.

Every PAT Testing Certificate we issue is fully itemised and inspection-ready.

✔ Unique ID number for every appliance

✔ Appliance description and location

✔ Visual inspection results

✔ Electrical test readings (not just pass/fail)

✔ Pass / Fail status clearly shown

✔ Failures Report including next steps

✔ Details of any repairs carried out

✔ Engineer name, Quality Control signature and test date

✔ Branded PDF document emailed to you

This creates a full audit trail, protecting you in the event of an accident, insurance claim or investigation.

On completion of all PAT testing jobs we provide every client, whether you have one appliance or thousands, with an itemised PAT Testing Certificate Report.

We send the certificate as a PDF document to your email address, so you can save it as you see fit.

The report is itemised; so each appliance gets its own unique ID number, stored indefinitely in our database, and refers directly to the number on the label the engineer applied at time of testing. The report also includes the electrical results obtained at time of testing and whether or not the appliance passed it’s check.

Furthermore the report provides information and guidance on appliances that failed.

If you need a PAT Testing Certificate urgently, we can help.

We regularly issue same-day PAT Testing Certificates, ideal if:

• Your insurer has requested documentation

• A tenancy, audit or compliance check is imminent

Your certificate is compiled and issued as a PDF, ready to forward immediately.

Is a PAT Testing Certificate a legal requirement?
There is no single law stating “you must have a certificate”, but UK legislation requires electrical equipment to be maintained safely. A PAT Testing Certificate proves you have met that duty.

How often do I need a PAT Testing Certificate?
This depends on the environment and usage. We advise retest periods based on risk and your fire risk assessment.

Can I get my certificate the same day?
Yes — same-day certificates are available in most cases.

What happens if equipment fails?
Failed items are clearly identified. Where possible, we carry out remedial repairs free of charge and retest.

The Electricity at Work Regulations 1989, which cover all electrical equipment from a battery-powered torch to 400 kV overhead power lines, require all systems to be maintained to prevent danger. Danger is defined as anything that risks injury or damage from fire. Records (PAT results) can be used to demonstrate compliance with the regulations.

The Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations 1998 require the employer to ensure that equipment is only used for operations and under conditions for which it is suitable; and it requires records of maintenance activities be kept – A PAT testing Certificate is an acceptable record.

We’ll visit your site, inspect and test your equipment, and issue your PAT Testing Certificate quickly and professionally.
