What we do

If you have not previously had any PAT testing carried out, we will help you approximate the number of items you have and over how many locations to provide you with an estimate. If you have had testing carried out previously, you may well have an asset list specifying the number of items and where they are. This allows us to give you a more accurate cost.

We ask that you have had your fixed electrical installation (the wiring, sockets etc within a building) checked by an electrician within the recommended period, this is usually between 1 and 5 years, depending upon the type of premises. You need to do this because the safety of many portable appliances you connect to it rely on a good earth connection. It is likely that the owner of the building will have this carried out.

Once you have decided to use us, we will schedule the testing at your convenience. Every item we test is issued an asset number and a green label if it passes or a red 'do not use' label if it fails. During the testing we like to keep in touch to make sure any dangerous or faulty items found are removed, repaired or replaced without any disruption to the business.

On completion, we will go over the engineers report with you to help sort any safety issues and then give you a complete asset list, test report and certificates.

The fewer assets you have, the sooner we can schedule your testing in. In some cases it can be done on the day you call us.

We are happy to work in the most cost effective way for you, so please get in touch to discuss your requirements - advice is free.

If you have a website, we will supply you with a graphic to show visitors you have been PAT tested. See the links page for the html code.

We have been tested by Cornwall PAT Testing

Does everything need testing?
Yes, you will need to make sure any portable appliances that will be used are available to be tested, this includes staff laptops and any equipment they may have elsewhere.

What appliances need testing?
There are many types of appliance and they all need testing, from an extension lead to a built in cooker.

Why all this PAT palaver?
The Electricity At Work Regulations 1989, The Health & Safety At Work Act 1974, and The Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations 1998 put requirements on employers, employees and the self-employed to insure the safety of appliances used in the workplace.

Are you electricians? Can you rewire some sockets for us?
No, we only specialise in portable appliance testing and as a result we are competitively priced and you don't have to wait weeks for us to do the work.
