Portable Appliance Testing
Who are we ?
- EssexPAT.net is a specialist Portable Appliance Testing Company.
- We're not electricians, we just do testing.
- City & Guilds Qualified
- DBS Checked
- Fully Insured
Why Have It Done ?
- You're required by law to ensure that your business is safe and that the people involved within it are safe too.
- You may be required to have it done by a governing body or trade association.
- Electricity injures around 1,000 people at work every year, of these, around 30 die.
What's Involved?
- It's basically the MOT for your electrical appliances.
- It includes, Computers, Leads, Kettles, Microwaves, Fans, Heaters Toasters and Lamps.
- If you plug it in, it will be inspected, checked for operation and tested (if applicable).
- If it passes, it'll get a nice new I/D sticker and a clean bill of health.
- If it fails we'll repair it, or advise you to remove it from service.
There's a new 5th Edition Code of Practice that now includes Fixed Wire items in the testing. These include items such as hand dryers, air conditioning units and some heaters. Ask for advice.
How Often?
As a general rule, we advise businesses to have testing carried out annually. Quite simply, a lot can change in a year and we feel that's about the right time between tests.
The rules say that your business should carry out a Risk Assessment and use the results from this to
determine the period between tests. We're happy to undertake your Risk Assessments for you and we'll
do them free of charge if you book us for next year too.
And How Much ?
45p per test, up to 2,000 items
Above 2,000 then it's 40p per item
Minimum charge per site is £65
Nothing hidden, transparent prices
Fixed Wire Items are charged at a different rate, please ask for details. We're not trying to hide the price, we just need to talk to you first.

Risk Assessments
We'll take care of that..
As part of the Code of Practice your future PAT testing is risk based. This means that you need to assess every area of your business to ascertain the percieved risks to staff and the public. We include this as part of your testing. If you book us for next year it's free.
Genuine Photographs
All of the example photos are totally genuine, taken whilst testing. If we see electrical faults, that aren't necessarily part of the PAT test, we'll point them out to you.
Many of the issues seen are caused by user error or staff bringing in their own equipment.
Often repairs get carried out by unskilled staff , they're trying to help but in actual fact they are endangering everyone.
We'll offer practical advice to help you keep everyone safer.
