Services and Testing
We use advanced Seaward Primetest instruments which allow us to be extremely efficient whilst on site. They also cut down on the amount of admin required which consequently results in the client receiving their documentation much quicker following completion of the testing, and enables us to keep costs as low as possible for our clients too.
If you have not already done so, it is essential that you protect your employees and your business by establishing and operating an electrical inspection and PAT testing programme.
We help companies meet their legal obligations and ensure the safety of all electrical equipment used in their businesses.
We provide a comprehensive, fully managed service, which includes periodic inspection and testing of portable appliances (PAT Testing), along with full supporting documentation and advice.

What is a Portable Appliance?
A portable appliance is an item of electrical equipment, which is connected to the power supply with a flex and plug.
Why do I need Portable Appliance Testing?
There are a number of reasons why appliances should be PAT tested on a regular basis, but the most important ones are:
- To comply with The Electricity at Work Regulations 1989; Section 4(2) which requires all Portable Appliances to be accurately assessed by regular inspection and testing, so that the appliance in question can be confirmed as safe to use
- To assure the safety of all your portable appliances, e.g. kettles, microwaves, computers, fridges, telephones and extension leads, PAT testing satisfies these Health and Safety regulations
- To comply with the Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999
- To comply with all Health & Safety at Work Act 1974; Section 2 of this requires the employer to ensure that all appliances comply with the regulations of the Act, and that the employer is responsible in so far as is reasonably practicable in making sure that all relevant equipment is safe to use and without risk to health
- To minimise the risk of fire and injury caused by electrical appliances
- To satisfy your Insurance Company
- To supply Fire Officers and Health & Safety Inspectors with PAT testing certificates and records
