RB Services provides professional PAT testing services for businesses and organisations, helping ensure electrical equipment remains safe to use through structured inspection and testing. Portable Appliance Testing is a practical way to identify faults, reduce electrical risk and maintain clear, organised safety records across your workplace.
Our experienced engineers carry out electrical equipment testing across a wide range of environments, providing efficient on-site testing, minimal disruption and clear reporting.
Portable Appliance Testing (PAT testing) is the process of inspecting and testing electrical equipment to confirm it remains safe to use. This includes a combination of visual inspection and electrical testing, helping identify faults, wear or damage that could lead to electrical hazards or equipment failure.
Our approach follows guidance from the IET Code of Practice for In-Service Inspection and Testing of Electrical Equipment and supports responsibilities under the Electricity at Work Regulations 1989.
Electrical equipment can deteriorate over time through use, movement or environmental conditions, so inspection helps identify issues early and supports safe, ongoing use.
Our PAT testing service is designed to be both thorough and efficient, helping businesses maintain safe electrical equipment while minimising disruption to day-to-day operations.
Each appliance undergoes a detailed visual inspection to check plugs, cables and equipment for signs of damage, wear or incorrect wiring. This is followed by electrical testing using calibrated instruments, including checks such as earth continuity, insulation resistance and polarity where required.
All equipment is clearly labelled with pass or fail identification, and results are recorded within a structured test report. This includes appliance identification, test outcomes and any faults identified, providing clear documentation for your records.
Our PAT testing service covers a wide range of electrical appliances commonly found in workplaces, including office equipment, kitchen appliances, IT equipment, extension leads and portable tools. We carry out structured electrical appliance testing across your site, ensuring each item is inspected, tested and recorded appropriately. Where issues are identified, we provide clear guidance on any action required, helping you maintain safe and reliable equipment.
Our PAT testing services support a wide range of businesses and organisations that rely on electrical equipment as part of their daily operations. This includes offices, retail premises, hospitality venues, schools, healthcare environments, warehouses, industrial units and property managers. Whether you operate a single site or manage multiple locations, we provide structured portable appliance testing tailored to your working environment.
Professional PAT testing helps ensure electrical equipment remains safe, suitable and reliable for use within your workplace, supporting a safer working environment.
Routine inspection also helps maintain organised records of testing, supporting internal safety procedures and providing documented evidence of electrical equipment maintenance. This can be useful for audits and general safety management processes.
