Description
Portable Appliance Testing (PAT) is a safety inspection process used to check electrical appliances and equipment to ensure they are safe for use. PAT involves visual inspection, electrical testing, and documentation to identify faults such as damaged cables, insulation failure, or improper wiring. It is commonly conducted in offices, factories, construction sites, schools, and commercial buildings to prevent electrical accidents, shocks, and fire hazards. Regular Portable Appliance Testing helps organizations comply with safety regulations, reduce risks, and maintain workplace safety. PAT testing ensures that electrical equipment operates efficiently, safely, and in accordance with safety standards and inspection requirements.
