Portable Appliance (PAT) Testing Runcorn
Regular PAT testing ensures electrical appliances in your Runcorn home or business remain safe for use. This preventative measure identifies potential hazards before they cause accidents or equipment failures.
The testing process involves both visual inspections and electronic measurements. We examine cables, plugs, and casings for physical damage while also checking internal components for proper functioning. Each appliance receives appropriate tests based on its classification—from simple Class II equipment to complex Class I devices requiring earth continuity verification.
For Runcorn businesses, PAT testing helps fulfill legal obligations under the Health and Safety at Work Act and the Electricity at Work Regulations. We provide comprehensive documentation including test certificates and appliance labels showing test dates and next inspection requirements.
Homeowners benefit from PAT testing too, especially with older appliances or equipment used in challenging environments like garages or garden buildings. The peace of mind from knowing your devices won’t cause electric shocks or fires proves invaluable.

Electrical Inspections and Testing Runcorn
Regular electrical inspections provide crucial safety assurance for Runcorn properties. Our thorough examination process evaluates your entire electrical installation against current regulations, identifying potential hazards before they cause harm.
The inspection covers fixed wiring, distribution boards, earthing arrangements, and protective devices. We examine accessible components visually while conducting precise measurements to verify system integrity. For detailed information about what these reports include, visit our guide to EICR reports.
Homeowners should arrange inspections every ten years (five for rented properties), while commercial premises typically require more frequent checks based on usage and risk factors. Following inspection, we provide a detailed Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) documenting our findings.
Should remedial work prove necessary, we provide clear quotations and can schedule repairs promptly. Many insurance policies now require valid EICRs, making regular testing not just a safety measure but a practical necessity.
