At Wessex Electrical Services Ltd, we understand that electrical safety is paramount for businesses. Whether you operate in an industrial setting or a commercial environment, ensuring that your electrical appliances are safe and compliant with regulations is not just good practice—it’s a legal requirement. That’s where Portable Appliance Testing (PAT) comes in.
Back to topElectrical appliances are used daily in workplaces, but over time, wear and tear can make them unsafe. Faulty electrical equipment is a major cause of fires and electrical hazards, leading to potential injuries, downtime, and legal repercussions. PAT ensures that all your portable appliances meet Health and Safety Executive (HSE) guidelines and industry regulations such as the Electricity at Work Regulations 1989.
Regular PAT testing helps businesses:
✔ Identify potential faults before they become hazards.
✔ Reduce the risk of electric shocks and fires.
✔ Comply with legal and insurance requirements.
✔ Maintain a safe working environment for employees and customers.
✔ Prevent unexpected equipment failures that could disrupt business operations.
