Course Overview
Our Portable Appliance Testing (PAT) Course delivers a minimum of 6 hours of instruction and is designed to teach up to a maximum of 12 delegates. The course provides training in the safe and correct use of portable appliance testing - ensuring delegates have the necessary knowledge to carry out the process safely and adhere to the regulations required of an organisation.
The course price is inclusive of a copy of the IET Code of Practice for In-service Inspection and Testing of Electrical Equipment (5th Edition) worth £60.00.
This course providers delegates with both the technical theory behind the PAT testing procedure, how to carry out physical tests of different kinds of equipment, how to conduct thorough visual inspections, how to spot dangers, and what is required to deem an electrical appliance as being fit and safe for use. The test covers everything from computers to kettles and is a legal requirement for businesses to carry out on a regular basis in order to comply with regulations.
While PAT testing machines are provided for the duration of the course, we also encourage delegates to bring their own PAT Tester to the training course and our expert instructors can show you how to use it!
This course consists of a training room lecture and presentation, written assessment, practical training, and assessment.
