PAT Testing Devon
We are NICEIC approved for all your PAT testing needs
A portable appliance is classed as any piece of equipment which can be connected to the supply by means of a plug and socket arrangement (be it 13-amp or any other). It must be maintained to be safe at all times. Testing of portable appliances is also referred to as pat testing, P.A.T. or simply PAT.
Visual inspection
Firstly we carry out a visual inspection of the appliance checking:
Testing the appliance
Then, subject to the appliance passing the visual inspection, we connect it to the PAT Tester which checks:

The Results
Each appliance is then labelled with a PASS/FAIL vinyl label and the results are logged. Each item has its own unique asset register number.
Testing IT Equipment
Due to the delicate nature of IT equipment, a reduced current is applied to these appliances.
Any appliance that fails the test will be brought to your attention.
Test Results
Having completed testing, the results are presented in a report which includes the following:
Asset Register
(inventory of all items tested)
Test Data
(details and result readings of all tests carried out on each appliance)
Failure Sheet
(a listing of any failures encountered, showing reason for failure)
