Portable appliance testing or PAT Testing is the process of checking electrical appliances for safety through a series of visual inspections and electronic tests.
Why do I need to have my appliances tested?
The best way of ensuring that your appliances are safe is to have a PAT test carried out on them. This is a good way for to ensure that companies and landlords are meeting their legal obligations to maintain high standards of electrical safety in their property.
What does Portable Appliance Testing involve?
To establish the safety and suitability of your electrical appliances, the competent person will carry out a visual inspection of the appliance, its plug and lead. For Class I[1] equipment they will also inject test signals into the cable and appliance to ensure their integrity.
Who should do the work?
Electrical work must only be carried out by people who have the necessary knowledge, skill and experience needed to avoid danger to themselves and others.
Many registered electricians will carry out portable appliance testing. We only use fully qualified NICEIC electricians.
Will I receive a PAT Report?
Upon completion of the portable appliance inspection and testing you should receive a report that details the following as a minimum:
If you are not technically aware, then the contractor / competent person who carried out the inspection and testing should be happy to talk through your report with you and advise you of any further action required.

I own an old Victorian warehouse which has been turned into a storage unit in Walsall. We needed an EICR inspection for our insurance company. I called 3 other companies out but not one of them was interested in doing the job. I think the size and age of the building was putting them off but Jon from Mr Electric seemed motivated by taking on such a difficult task.

David Munns 4 reviews 2 months ago- Fantastic result when they carried out my EICR test on my premises in Sutton Coldfield they spotted that we were supplying the next unit to us with all their electricity for their lights. We have claimed back thousands and now have far cheaper bills to boot.
