In recent years, we have seen an increase in the level of electrical equipment used in our workplaces. PAT testing is a legal requirement and will ensure the safety of your electrical equipment to protect you, your family, your customers or staff and not forgetting members of the public. Full details of the legal requirements can be found in The Health & Safety at Work Act 1974, The Electricity at Work Regulations 1989, and The Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations 1998.
