PAT Testing Milton Keynes & Leighton Buzzard
(Portable Appliance Testing)
At S&D contracts, our electricians provide a PAT or Portable Appliance Testing service. PAT testing involves a visual and electronic test on all portable equipment within a workplace or building and determines whether or not the appliance is safe to use.
The machine, dependant on its findings, will establish a “pass” or “fail” status for the appliance.
How often should I have a PAT test?
Frequency of testing depends on the type of equipment and the environment in which it is used. For more information on this please give us a call or send us a quick online message. We provide PAT Testing to clients in Milton Keynes, Leighton Buzzard and surrounding areas.
