PAT Testing Northumberland
Example of our labels and equipment
Regular electrical testing ensures that any defects are maintained appropriately; the more regular the testing the less likely new defects will occur. Keeping maintenance up to date reduces the chances of an accident occurring. This is a one of the main benefits of PAT Testing. Many people like to say that PAT testing too often is a waste of money, and in some environments it is, but initially at least, doing PAT more often will ensure equipment maintains safe standards. Moving forward from that it is possible to increase the intervals between tests, as long as the risk is periodically assessed to make sure defects are not starting to occur again. As your PAT tester we work with you to help you maintain safe appliances, and thus a safe working environment.
