What is a “Portable Appliance” and why do they need PAT testing?Â
A portable appliance is an electrical appliance fitted with a plug that can be connected to or disconnected from the main power supply via a socket.Â
All portable appliances pose a risk because they can be unplugged easily, the plug and wiring can be damaged in the process if not done correctly, and the appliance can be damaged through use and movement; so they have to be inspected and tested regularly to ensure they maintain the required safety standards.Â
What needs PAT Testing?Â
Every electrical appliance used in a workplace or for business use needs to be maintained to a safe level at all times, this includes kitchen appliances, IT equipment, tools, etc. We carry out testing in all workplaces so wherever you work and whatever you do we can help.Â
