Electrical Safety

There are simple practices you can use to help reduce the risk of electrical injury or damage.

Portable Appliance Testing (PAT)

PAT testing is routine safety check which involves visual inspection of electrical equipment and flexible cables. There is also a set of electronic tests to check earthing as well as the level of insulation between the current running through the appliance and any exposed metal which can be touched.

A PAT test is not required by UK law but you are required to keep electrical appliances well maintained to meet the following government regulations:

  • Health and Safety at Work Act of 1974.
  • The Electricity at Work Regulations of 1989.
  • The Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations of 1998.
  • The Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations of 1999.

A PAT test is the most effective way to do this. It is important to note that insurance companies expect you to carry out regular PAT testing for them to ensure cover is in place.

There are several organisations that can help you find a local qualified electrician for PAT testing including https://www.niceic.com/ and https://www.eca.co.uk.
