Why is a PAT test needed?
A PAT test will check that portable appliances are safe, helping you to ensure that your organisation meets health and safety requirements, including The Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations and The Electricity at Work Regulations. The use of untested appliances may also invalidate your insurance.
The engineer will first perform a visual inspection of the appliance to ensure that it is in good working order, free from damage, has not been tampered with in any way and has the correct fuse fitted. Following the visual inspection, the engineer will perform a safety test which will include:
-
Earth Continuity Testing
-
Insulation Resistance Testing
-
Protective Conductor/Touch Current Testing
Finally, the engineer will perform a functionality check, powering up the appliance to ensure that it is working correctly. Following these checks, the engineer will either pass or fail the appliance and label it accordingly.

We have recently started to use Millennium Cleaning Ltd to clean and maintain a very busy service road to the rear of a parade of shops. They have been extremely professional from the outset and constantly go above and beyond. Tenants and even the local council have commented on the improved level of cleanliness on site and we receive regular photos and updates on what is happening. We are very pleased with Millennium Cleaning and would not hesitate to recommend them.
