PAT testing in Milton Keynes

A typical Central MK office has dozens of chargers, monitors, docking stations and extension leads, plus kitchen appliances that see far more use. Most office IT is low risk, and HSE guidance is clear it doesn't all need testing every year. We'll suggest sensible intervals for each type of equipment, which usually reduces the cost of future visits. Computers have to be shut down to be tested, so we're happy to start early or work after hours.

If you supply a kettle, toaster, microwave, washing machine or lamps with a let, you're responsible for their safety. Testing them on the same visit as your Milton Keynes EICR is quick and inexpensive, and a PAT register is often asked for by HMO licensing and by agents.

Power tools, extension reels and site equipment take far more wear than office kit. In workshops and on the industrial estates we look closely at flex damage, cord grips and plugs, which is where most failures show up. Construction site tools at 110 V are typically tested every three months.

Event organisers and venues in and around Milton Keynes often ask stallholders and caterers to show PAT evidence for their equipment. We can test small batches before an event and label everything, so you have the paperwork ready when you arrive.
