Description
PAT Testing using the ESPO Framework Agreement 306_16 - Lot 1 - Portable Appliance Testing (PAT)
A Portable appliance is an item of electrical equipment which is connected to the power supply with a flex and a plug. This includes 'Computers' and their components. There are a number of reasons why appliances should be (PAT) tested on a regular basis, but the most important ones are: • The Electricity at work regulations 1989; Section 4 (4) Any equipment provided under these regulations for the purpose of protecting persons at work on or near electrical equipment shall be suitable for the use for which it is provided, be maintained in a condition suitable for that use, and be properly used. • To minimise the risk of fire and injury caused by electrical appliances. • To satisfy your insurance company. • To supply Fire Officers and Health and Safety Inspectors with PAT testing certificates and records. Testing engineers will inspect, test and certify all your portable appliances, as covered by the Institute of Electrical Engineers (IEE) Code of Practice, and provide advice as to their condition and safety. A written report, together with a test certificate will be provided as evidence that your portable appliances have had a combined inspection and electrical safety test. All Suppliers staff carrying out Portable Appliance Testing under this framework: • Understand the IEE Code of Practice and are competent to undertake the inspection and, where appropriate, testing of electrical equipment and appliances, having due regard to their own safety and that of others. • Have an understanding of the modes of electrical, mechanical or thermal damage to electrical equipment and appliances and their flexes, which may be encountered in any environment • Are familiar with the test instruments used and in particular their limitations and restrictions so as to achieve repeatable results without damaging the equipment or appliance. • Understand appropriate intervals for re-inspecting and re-testing and can interpret test results and take appropriate action. • Are fully DBS checked and approved
