Why entertainers need PAT Testing
Most venues, event organisers and insurers require entertainers to provide a valid PAT Testing Certificate before allowing equipment on site. This applies to portable, mobile and regularly transported equipment used at events and performances.
PAT testing demonstrates that your equipment has been inspected and tested for electrical safety, helping you:
- Meet venue requirements
- Satisfy insurance conditions
- Avoid last-minute cancellations
- Protect yourself, clients and audience
