Keep your home or workplace safe and compliant with routine electrical testing carried out by certified engineers.
Book a test →PAT testing is usually priced per appliance rather than as a flat fee. Across the industry, typical rates run from around £1 to £3 per item, depending on the type of appliance and how many you're having tested. Larger batches bring the per-item cost down, and most providers apply a minimum call-out charge for very small jobs.

Not explicitly by name, but UK law (the Electricity at Work Regulations 1989 and the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974) requires employers and landlords to keep portable electrical equipment safe. Regular PAT testing is the standard, recognised way to demonstrate that you're meeting that duty.
It depends on the type of appliance and how it's used. Equipment in higher-risk environments (like construction sites) needs testing more often than office IT equipment. We'll recommend a sensible interval for your setup as part of your quote.
PAT testing covers portable appliances: things you can unplug and move, like kettles, laptops and extension leads. An EICR covers your property's fixed wiring: the sockets, circuits and consumer unit built into the walls. Most businesses need both; landlords letting a property typically need an EICR specifically.
A visual inspection for damage, an earth continuity check, an insulation resistance test, and a polarity check where relevant. Each appliance that passes gets a dated label; anything that fails is flagged and removed from use until repaired or replaced.
Any business, landlord, school or organisation with portable electrical equipment used by staff, tenants or the public. It protects people from electrical hazards and gives you documented evidence of compliance for insurers and audits.
