Site Survey
      The purpose of a PAT Testing Site Survey is to:
  1. Identify all the locations for Portable Appliance testing.
  2. Evaluate the accessibility of each Portable Appliance Test.
  3. Identify any specific requirements for PAT Testing.
  4. Establish an overall total of Portable Appliance Testing in each location.
  5. Provide a more accurate quote.
Quotation
       A quotation is a composed estimate from a PAT Testing evaluation of  
       the site survey, based on how many items are expected to be PAT Tested
       and the duration of time required to test them.
 
Test
      There are two basic parts involved within the PAT Testing procedure:
  1. The formal visual inspection of the plug, lead and appliance.
  2. The electrical test consisting of Earth bond (class 1 only), Insulation (class 1&2), Earth leakage (IT equipment), and Polarity (cables).
Optional tests
  1. Maintenance and Repair where possible.
  2. Functional test to make sure the item works correctly and is suitable for the environment in which it is being used.
All PAT Testing is performed in accordance with the Institute of Electrical Engineers (IEE) code of practice for in-service inspection and testing of electrical equipment. We PAT Test 230 volts, 115 volts, and 3 phase.
