PORTABLE APPLIANCE TESTING (PAT TEST)
PORTABLE APPLIANCE TESTING (PAT TEST) is the term used to describe the examination of electrical appliances and equipment to ensure they are safe to use. Most electrical safety defects can be found by visual examination but some types of defect can only be found by testing. However, it is essential to understand that visual examination is an essential part of the process because some types of electrical safety defect can't be detected by testing alone.
