WHO NEEDS PAT TESTING?

PAT testing is carried out on rented accommodations annually to make sure that electrical appliances that are being left for a tenant are safe to use and also protect the landlord against the consumer protection action (1987) and the electrical equipment act (1994).

WHAT HAPPENS DURING AND AFTER PAT TESTING?

When the engineer is in the property conducting the test he or she will apply stickers on all of the appliances confirming they have been tested and safe to use. The landlord will also receive a pat report confirming what has been tested and if the item is safe for use.
