New records software for manual PAT testers
September 1st 2010 Seaward has extended its range of
portable appliance testing (PAT)
record keeping programs with the
introduction of a new manual data
entry product. Available with a free
90 day evaluation offer, the new
PATGuard Elements program has
been designed for use with manual
PAT testers that do not incorporate
an internal memory for the storage
of test results.
The new software enables test
results taken with manual PAT
testers to be incorporated into a
formal PC–based record keeping
system. The program is intended
for use by organisations that
perform electrical safety testing and
maintain their own records but
who require a simplified database
system.
This is in keeping with the HSE
Memorandum of Guidance on the
Electricity At Work Regulations
1898 which advises that records of
maintenance including test results
should be kept throughout the life
of the equipment. More articles from Seaward Electronic Ltd: |
