Why Do I Need My Appliances Tested?

If you’ve ever had an electrical accident, or know someone that has, you’ll appreciate how important it is to make sure that electrical appliances in the workplace and in the home are safe to use. With litigation and today’s 'blame' culture, it has become more important than ever to make sure that your electrical appliances are as safe as possible for you, your staff,  the public and tenants.

One of the first things Fire Officers and Health & Safety Inspectors usually ask to see on any inspection visit is PAT records. The reasons why appliances should be tested on a regular basis are:

1.       To comply with The Electricity at Work Regulations

2.       To comply with the Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations

3.       To minimise the risk of fire and injury caused by electrical appliances (Each year about 1000 accidents at work involving electric shock or burns are reported to the   Health and Safety Executive. About 3% of these are fatal).

4.       To satisfy your Insurance Company

5.       To comply with all Health & Safety requirements and ISO standards

6.       To comply with Quality Assurances

7.       As part of your Fire Risk Assessment compliance
