PAT Testing & Electrical Testing Leeds & Sheffield
Of the thousands of portable appliances and electrical items which NWPT technicians check every year, many are in bad condition, working inefficiently or dangerously. Many are a potential health and safety nightmare, needing urgent repairs or simply to be thrown out.
A Health and Safety Executive (HSE) report says that, of all reported electrical accidents, 25% are caused by portable appliances. In other words, there could be a 25% decrease in electrical accidents if all portable appliances are functioning correctly, in a safe and efficient manner. Portable appliances should be regularly PAT tested as part of any organisation’s health and safety policy.
Protecting the people in your organisation, as well as visitors and your organisation’s reputation makes sense. It is the duty of every employer to take reasonable, practical measures to ensure that “work equipment is maintained in an efficient state, in efficient working order and in good repair” (Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations 1998). Think of the electrical items in your workplace: computers, phones, photocopiers. In your work kitchen too, there are more: microwaves and kettles. Have they been recently tested by a qualified technician?
PAT Testing and Electrical Testing is essential to:
- Protect the health and safety of your employees and your visitors
- Protect against possible court action against your organisation
- Keep in-line with current health and safety legislation and standards
- Meet the requirements of your insurance company (in some cases)
