Why PAT Testing Matters

Faulty portable electrical appliances can create unnecessary risk in the workplace, especially where equipment is used frequently or moved regularly. PAT testing helps identify damaged cables, faulty plugs, worn casings and internal electrical issues before they become bigger problems. It also gives employers, landlords and duty holders a clearer record of equipment condition and testing history.
