Fixed Appliance Testing FAT Report

Although fixed appliance testing should always be a part of a testing procedure it is often overlooked. Fixed appliances such as cookers, night storage heaters and hand driers therefore are rarely tested. The fixed wiring in the property will be tested, including the fused spurs, but not the appliances they feed, during the EICR inspection and the appliances with 13a plugs tested during a portable appliance test.

Thermal Imaging Report

Often during PAT testing in an office environment there will be a server room. The client will regularly decide not to have this room fully PAT tested as they feel they cannot shut the server down for many reasons. It may be that their IT support is not actually on site or that they feel they cannot afford the downtime that may ensue with a full shutdown.

Microwave Testing: Household & Commercial Report

A microwave should provide an efficient and safe method of cooking food either at home or in a commercial kitchen. Sometimes over a period of time a microwave, due to lack of cleanliness or maintenance, can become less efficient or even dangerous. Measurement of safe radiation levels are checked with a correctly calibrated meter and a temperature test is done to ensure that the microwave is working to its correct power rating.

Due to my employers ISO requirements all my electrical equipment required PAT testing so i looked for a local service to carry out the work within the Durham Area due to being a UK field service engineer.
Fantastic service from Durham PAT Testing, all equipment tested / certified and returned in less than one day.
All certification of the tested equipment emailed back within 4hrs and i collected the equipment the next day.
I Highly recommend this service to everyone and i will continue to utilise their services in the future.
Many Thanks.

Edward came out to us early one morning (before the offices opened so there was no interruption to our business) to test 129 items. Highly professional and would recommend his services to anyone.

This is the first time we have used Durham PAT Testing but it certainly won't be the last. Arranged a date well in advance to carry out the testing and turned up when said to complete the works. Reasonably and with a professional manor.
