 Portable Appliance Testing (PAT): Why Your UK Business Needs It & How Infinity FM Can Help

Electrical safety is non-negotiable in any business setting. Whether you manage a pub, retail shop, warehouse, office, or hotel, Portable Appliance Testing (PAT) is a critical component of your health and safety obligations.

What Is PAT Testing and Why Is It Important?

PAT Testing involves the routine inspection and testing of electrical appliances to ensure they’re safe to use. The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) recommends regular checks as part of your duty to prevent harm from electrical equipment under the Electricity at Work Regulations 1989.

Unsafe appliances can cause fires, electrical shocks, and serious injuries—risks that no responsible business should take.

Is PAT Testing a Legal Requirement?

While PAT Testing itself isn’t mandated by law, employers are legally obligated to maintain electrical equipment in a safe condition. Regular PAT Testing is the most recognised way to meet this duty and protect your staff and customers.

Who Needs PAT Testing?
PAT Testing is essential for:

• Pubs & Restaurants: Kettles, toasters, fridges, audio systems
   
• Shops & Retail Units: Till systems, computers, lighting
   
• Warehouses: Power tools, portable heaters, extension leads
   
• Offices: Printers, monitors, chargers, desk lamps
   
• Hotels & Hospitality: Hairdryers, kettles, TVs in guest rooms
   

HSE Guidance on PAT Testing Frequency:

The HSE recommends a risk-based approach, but typical guidance includes:

• High-risk or frequently used equipment: Test every 6–12 months
   
• Office equipment in low-risk areas: Test every 2–4 years, with visual checks in between
