Portable Appliance Testing (PAT)

Course Overview:

Our Portable Appliance Testing (PAT) Course delivers a minimum of 6 hours of instruction and is designed to teach up to a maximum of 12 delegates. The course provides training in the safe and correct use of portable appliance testing - ensuring delegates have the necessary knowledge to carry out the process safely and adhere to the regulations required of an organisation.

On this course delegates learn both the technical theory behind the PAT testing procedure and how to carry out physical tests of different kinds of equipment. Delegates will also learn how to conduct thorough visual inspections, how to spot dangers and what is required to deem an electrical appliance as being fit and safe for use. The test covers everything from computers to kettles and is a legal requirement for businesses to carry out on a regular basis in order to comply with regulations.

This course consists of a training room lecture, DVD presentation, written assessment, practical training and assessment.

Who Should attend:

The PAT (Portable Appliance Testing) Training Course lasts for one full day between the hours of 8:30am - 3:30pm. It is most suited to those who would like to begin a career in PAT testing regardless of whether they already have experience in the industry or are new to the field. Also, the course is perfect for those who are responsible for maintaining portable appliances in their work environment.

You do not have to be an electrician to become a qualified PAT tester, our training courses are open to anyone.

Whether you're an individual required to carry out PAT testing or a larger organisation required to conduct testing of all your electrical equipment.

Since the safe use of portable appliance testing tools require that delegates consult safety notices and read and thoroughly understand the manufacturer’s instruction manual, English literacy and language comprehension are important requirements for any user.
