What will happen during our electrical safety PAT testing?

​

SRT PAT specialise in portable appliance and Testing of Electrical Equipment (ITEE) & Portable Appliance Testing for small businesses, sole traders, individual’s charities, community groups, clubs, private individuals and landlords based in and around Derby & Derbyshire.

• We will meet you at your business premises at a date and time that suits you.

If you’re a sole trader or a mobile business, you can bring your items to us and we can efficiently test them whilst-you wait.

• We will identify all electrical items in your premises that need to be tested

 

• All appliances and electrical equipment will under-go a full visual inspection this includes checking the outside of the items casing, the condition of the wiring and cables, we will open the plug and check that the plug is wired in the right way and that the fuse is the right type.

 

• We will carry out an earth continuity test with a PAT testing machine which will check the internal condition of the wiring to ensure it is wired correctly and that safety features such as the fuse or circuit breaker will function properly.

 

• Items that fail either a visual test or an earth continuity test will be repaired free of charge if it is possible to do so and then they be retested.

 

• When an item passes both of these checks we will fit a GREEN electrical safety test pass sticker – this will show the appliance ID, date tested, the test engineer’s initials and most importantly the next PAT test due date.

 

• Any electrical items or appliances that fail our tests and can not be repaired will be fitted with a RED Failed electrical safety test sticker, and we will advise you to dispose of that appliance and get a replacement.

 

• We will record a comprehensive list of all of the items we have tested. This will include the appliance ID, the location in your premises, the pass or fail, and observations. If an appliances fails our tests we will provide detail as to why it has failed.

 

• We will send you our Portable Appliance Electrical inspection survey report which will list the details of all of the electrical appliances that we have tested and we will include health and safety advice to help you manage your business safely.
