Portable appliance testing (PAT)  is the name of a process in the United Kingdom by which electrical appliances are routinely checked for safety. The formal term for the process is “in-service inspection & testing of electrical equipment”.

It is essential to make sure all devices aren’t unsafe. Health and safety regulations require that electrical appliances are safe and well maintained to prevent any harm coming to workers. Many equipment manufacturers recommend testing at regular intervals to ensure continual safety in the work environment; the interval between tests depending on both the type of appliance and the environment in which it is to be used.
