We are a specialist PAT testing company based in Tamworth, Staffordshire.

We work with clients across the UK providing a simple and cost effective solution. Our service enables all companies and organisations to comply with the 4th edition Portable Appliance Testing Regulations and Electricity at Work Regulations 1989.

We have been specialising in PAT testing for over 14 years.

Portable Appliance Testing (PAT) Staffordshire

Portable Appliance Testing (PAT)

This is the examination of electrical appliances to ensure they are safe to use and is an important part of any company health & safety policy.

‘Portable appliances’ covers any item of electrical equipment that has a power lead with a plug that is intended to be connected to the mains electricity supply.

These items are required to be tested on a regular basis to ensure they are in a safe working condition.

Fixed Installation Testing Staffordshire

Fixed Installation Testing

This is a safety test of the electrical circuits and systems that distribute power around a building.

This includes lighting, power sockets and specialist power supplies to items such as air conditioning or commercial HV equipment.

The frequency of a Fixed Installation Test is dependent on the age of the building and the type of use.

Emergency Lighting Testing Staffordshire

Emergency Lighting Testing

This test is required periodically to conform with BS5266.

The purpose of the test is to ensure all emergency lighting units are working correctly and ready to provide lighting in the event of a loss of mains power.

When a unit fails this test, we can supply a new unit that conforms to the latest standards.

We can also provide training to your staff to carry out interim testing.

UK businesses of all sizes need to comply with the Electricity at Work Regulations 1989. These regulations require electrical systems to be maintained in a bid to minimise danger to those operating them.

This puts the onus on employers to make sure that they, their employees and anyone else who comes into contact with electrical equipment, is not exposed to danger arising from faults in the equipment.

Electrical safety records may also be a requirement as part of a Public Liability or Buildings Insurance policy.

Schools

We have a vast amount of experience working in schools, colleges and universities. We can provide testing during the school holidays or at weekends to ensure there is no disruption to staff or students.

All our engineers are City and Guilds qualified, DBS checked and fully insured.

Shops & Offices

We have a large amount of experience working in large and small businesses.

We can provide testing at weekends and overnight to ensure there is no disruption to staff or your customers.

Factories

Our engineers carry out testing on all appliances within the factory from 110v to 415v.

We can work outside your normal working hours and when the factory is otherwise closed for the day.
