Electrical Testing For Business's Small & Large

Whatever size of business you work in, whether you are a sole trader or a large national company, you will have Health and Safety responsibilities.

If you use electrical equipment in your business, then you have a responsibility to regularly maintain it and make sure it is safe to use.

Some insurance companies will insist on your equipment being PAT tested on a regular basis in order to meet the conditions of their policy. In the case of fire or environmental inspections evidence of business PAT testing is expected to be presented on request. In the event of a fire, without recent PAT testing records your insurance company may not pay out.

What is PAT testing?

PAT testing consists of:

• Visual Checks – to ensure there is no visible damage to the appliance, no exposure to wires or cables, no damage to the plug itself
• Safety Checks – using a specialist PAT testing machine to check the earth continuity, lead polarity and insulation resistance of each item.

Testing should be carried out at regular intervals; this will depend on what the equipment is and how often it is used.
