What Is PAT Testing?
Portable Appliance Testing (PAT) is the process of checking electrical appliances to make sure they are safe to use. PAT testing includes:
- Plugs and sockets
- Electrical cords and cables
- Portable devices like kettles, toasters, computers, and power tools
The test involves a visual inspection plus electrical checks with specialist equipment. This helps detect hidden faults that could cause shocks, fires, or damage.
Who Needs PAT Testing?
The short answer: everyone.
- Homeowners – Household appliances can develop faults over time. Regular PAT testing keeps your family safe.
- Landlords – You must provide safe electrical appliances for tenants. PAT testing helps meet legal responsibilities.
- Businesses – Health and safety law requires workplaces to reduce electrical risks. PAT testing protects staff and visitors.
- Schools & Nurseries – Ensuring safe electrics for children and staff is essential.
- Property Managers & Letting Agents – PAT testing supports compliance and protects tenants.
No matter who you are, PAT testing is a smart way to prevent electrical hazards.
