Back to basics
December 1st 2008 As the HSE continues its
campaign for sensible risk
management, PAT specialist
Martindale is reminding
firms that a basic tester
could be all that's needed to
ensure safety.
"There are many pieces of
testing equipment out there
that are all-singing, alldancing
– we make them
too, for those industrial
situations that demand their
capabilities," said Steve
Dunning of Martindale. "But
the fact remains that in
many cases, a simple,
reliable and easy-to-use PAT
tester is all a competent
user needs."
The HSE campaign aims to
promote the sensible
assessment and management
of risk rather than create an
unrealistically overprotective
environment and growing
numbers of organisations are
signing up to it:

With its one button, one
test approach, the EasyPAT
1600 is said to be ideal for
those needing to do a basic
test as quickly as possible
while fulfilling legal
requirements. More articles from Martindale Electric Ltd: |
