What is Portable Appliance Testing?

Portable Appliance Testing is the in-service inspection of any 240Volt Electrical Appliance fitted with a 13amp plug or any 110Volt appliance to ensure compliance, as set out in the IEE Regulations for In-service Inspection and Testing of Electrical Equipment.

Various tests are performed to measure compliance and will include a thorough visual inspection, function test and if applicable an Earth Continuity, Insulation Resistance Test, load and leakage and flash tests. Not all tests are required on all equipment.

The tested appliance will then be given its own unique label to show conformity.

On completion of the testing and inspection a comprehensive report will be provided detailing the appliances inspected together with test results and details of items that failed. This report will act as evidence to any interested party that you have endeavored to meet your obligations for electrical safety as required by the law.
