portable (PAT) items

Enter your number of items

These are your everyday plug-in items - kettles, PCs, chargers, leads, etc. Microwave emission tests are priced separately below.

Just the extra radiation-leak (emission) test. The microwave's normal PAT test is already included as one of your items above. Recommended annually.
What counts as a portable (PAT) item? Anything with a plug that you switch on - most people undercount! Kettles, toasters, microwaves, lamps, TVs, monitors, printers, chargers, extension leads, kettle leads/IEC cables, fridges, heaters and power tools each count as one item.
Quick examples: a kettle counts as 1. A laptop counts as 2 - the mains lead and the power supply (the laptop itself isn't tested). A detachable kettle/IEC lead is its own item, so an appliance with a separate lead is 2. If in doubt, count it - I'll confirm on the day.

Not sure how many items you have? Call or WhatsApp and I'll give you a quick estimate.

Frequently Asked Questions

Many landlords and businesses choose to test most appliances every 12 months, but the exact frequency depends on your type of equipment and environment. Higher-risk items like kettles, microwaves and power tools are typically tested annually, while lower-risk items like desktop monitors might be every 2 years. I can advise based on your setup.

You'll receive a digital report listing all items tested and their pass/fail results, plus a certificate you can keep for your records, insurers or letting agents. Everything is emailed to you. Failed items are clearly flagged with advice on what to do next.

I'll work with you on this. Most items only need to be unplugged for a minute or two during testing. For businesses, I can test between uses or outside opening hours to minimise disruption. We'll agree a plan before I arrive.

Yes - I hold relevant City & Guilds PAT testing qualifications and full public liability insurance. Proof is available on request. I follow the IET Code of Practice for in-service inspection and testing of electrical equipment.

I'm based in Salford and cover all of Greater Manchester - including Manchester city centre, Trafford, Bolton, Bury, Stockport, Oldham, Rochdale, Wigan, Tameside and surrounding areas. No extra travel charges within Greater Manchester.

There's no single law that says "you must PAT test" - but landlords and employers have a legal duty to ensure electrical equipment is safe. PAT testing is the recognised way to demonstrate that. Most insurers and letting agents require it, and it's often a condition of your public liability insurance.
