PAT testing frequency is something we get asked about quite often and it is important that you are aware of your responsibilities. Before any new appliance i.e. (Kitchen appliances, office appliances, industrial tools etc) is first sold to the public, it is are rigorously inspected to make sure there are no electrical faults and are safe to use for the first 12 months.
Subsequently, after 12 months, the electrical appliance will need a PAT Test to check it is still safe to use. The general rule of thumb in past years for in-service inspection & testing is that it should therefore be carried out on a yearly basis.

What is PAT testing
Report
Portable Appliance Testing or PAT testing is known as in-service inspection and testing mentioned in the Code of practice 4th edition, carried out on a regular basis to ensure that every appliance is safe to use on a continuous basis in the work place. Most new items that are bought from a manufacturer and under 12 months old, do not need to be tested as the manufacturer has already put the appliance through this process already.
PAT testing labels
Report
At 250 Rio we have developed a unique system of PAT testing labels, to provide our customers with a simple and effective way of ensuring their appliance testing is up to date and in accordance with their legal requirements.
We have developed a colour coded label system that allows you to see test and renewal dates for every appliance we have tested, with the added benefit that a specific colour relates to a time frame - allowing customers to see at a glance which appliances are reaching their re-test date.

Periodical testing
Report
Over time all electrical installations degrade because of their age and usage and need periodical testing. These installations require inspection and testing at regular intervals to make sure they are in good working order. On job completion you will be issued with an EICR (Electrical Condition Report).
