Free, updated guide to PAT
October 1st 2006

Seaward Electronic has published an updated version of its free booklet that details all the practical issues associated with ensuring the safety of electrical equipment and portable appliances in the workplace.

The 36-page Guide to Portable Appliance Testing is aimed at those responsible for ensuring the safe operation of electrical equipment in the workplace, as well as those who conduct tests or provide portable appliance test services.

The duties of employers, manufacturers, importers, hirers and maintainers are each considered in the booklet, with full reference to the legal requirements to test and the implications of the Electricity at Work Regulations (EAWR 1989).

Testing standards and the various types of electrical safety tests required are included, as is step-by-step guidance for testing different Class I, Class II and Class III electrical equipment.
