PAT Testing In Bridgend
Efficient Testing, Clear Records
Portable appliance testing gives you evidence that the equipment your staff and tenants use is safe. We inspect and test each item, apply a pass or fail label, and provide a full register you can hand to an insurer or auditor. Testing is booked around your operation, and for larger premises we can work outside normal hours so nothing is disrupted.

What PAT Testing Covers
Visual Inspection And Electrical Testing
Each appliance gets a visual inspection for damage to the plug, lead and casing, followed by electrical testing appropriate to the item. Faults such as damaged leads, poor connections or failed insulation are recorded, and we advise on whether an item should be repaired or taken out of use. You are left with a documented register and labelled equipment.
How Often Should You Test?
Sensible Intervals For Your Setting
There is no single legal interval for PAT testing; it depends on the equipment and the environment it is used in. A busy site with power tools needs more frequent checks than a quiet office. We advise a sensible schedule for your setting so you meet your obligations without testing more often than the risk warrants.
Frequently Asked Questions
PAT Testing FAQs
Is PAT testing a legal requirement?
The law requires portable equipment to be maintained in a safe condition. PAT testing is the accepted way to demonstrate you are meeting that duty.
How often do I need it done?
It depends on the equipment and environment. We recommend a sensible interval for your setting rather than a one-size figure.
Will I get a record?
Yes. You receive a full register of every item tested with pass or fail results, which supports your insurance and compliance.
Can you test outside working hours?
Yes. For larger premises we can test outside normal hours to avoid disrupting your business.
