Services
PAT Testing
Portable Appliance Testing ensures electrical equipment safety through systematic inspections. Our City & Guilds-certified engineers test devices from domestic appliances to industrial machinery, identifying defects that could cause electric shocks or fires. Clients receive asset registers and compliance certificates.
Fire Risk Assessment
Comprehensive fire risk assessments identify hazards and ensure regulatory compliance. We evaluate ignition sources, evacuation routes, and fire prevention measures, providing actionable plans to protect occupants and premises in line with UK legislation.
Thermographic Testing
Thermographic surveys detect overheating electrical components using infrared technology. This non-invasive method identifies potential failures in systems, preventing downtime and reducing fire risks while delivering detailed reports with corrective recommendations.
EICR Testing
Electrical Installation Condition Reports assess the safety of fixed wiring systems. Our engineers perform visual and electrical tests to identify deterioration or faults, ensuring compliance with BS7671 standards and preventing dangerous electrical failures.
Emergency Light Testing
Regular testing of emergency lighting systems ensures functionality during power failures. We conduct monthly functional tests and annual duration checks, certifying compliance with the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requirements.
