Why PAT Testing?

 

Portable Appliance Testing (PAT) helps businesses, landlords, letting agents, schools, offices and other organisations demonstrate that electrical appliances are being properly inspected, maintained and kept safe for continued use.

At North East Property Compliance Ltd, we provide professional PAT testing throughout Aberdeen and the surrounding areas. Our testing is carried out by City & Guilds qualified personnel using calibrated equipment and recognised industry practices.

We aim to make PAT testing straightforward, affordable and easy to understand, with clear results, professional documentation and transparent pricing.

Why is PAT testing important?

Electrical appliances can deteriorate over time through everyday use, damaged cables, loose connections, worn plugs, incorrect fuses or internal faults. Regular inspection and testing can help identify these problems before they create a safety risk.

PAT testing can help you:

  • Identify damaged or unsafe electrical appliances

  • Reduce the risk of electric shock and electrical fires

  • Maintain appropriate electrical safety records

  • Demonstrate that reasonable steps have been taken to maintain equipment

  • Identify damaged plugs, cables and casings

  • Check earth continuity and insulation where appropriate

  • Keep a clear record of appliances that have passed or failed

  • Support workplace, rental property and general health and safety procedures

PAT testing can be useful for a wide range of premises and organisations, including:

  • Landlords

  • Letting agents

  • Short-term lets and holiday accommodation

Each appliance is assessed individually. Depending on the type of equipment, this may include a visual inspection followed by appropriate electrical tests.

Once testing is complete:

  • Appliances that meet the required criteria are recorded as PASS

  • Equipment that does not meet the required criteria is recorded as FAIL

  • Appropriate Pass or Fail labels are applied

  • Test results are documented
