Portable Appliance Testing (PAT) is a process used to ensure the safety of electrical appliances in homes, offices and other commercial properties. Its main purpose is to identify any potential electrical faults or defects that could cause an issue and advise accordingly so property owners can ensure their appliances comply with all electrical safety testing regulations.
