A copy is always carried with us to every event we are in attendance at. If the venue requests to see these we have them on hand. Making sure we shall never be refused entrance by your venue for not having the correct insurance/tests.
Conducted on a yearly basis you have the sound piece of mind that we will not be turned away by your venue for not having this crucial piece of documentation. Just like our P.A.T we also hold full public liability insurance (PLI) another crucial piece of documentation that your venue will require us to hold.

PAT or portable appliance test is the term to describe the testing and examination of electrical appliances and equipment to ensure they are safe to use. Most electrical defects can be found by visual examination with some defects only being found by testing. It is essential to understand that a visual inspection along with a PAT test is vital. As a visual test can determine defects that a PAT test can’t detect.
The frequency of inspection and testing depends upon the type of equipment and the environment it is used in. For example, a power tool used on a construction site should be examined more frequently than a lamp in a hotel bedroom.
The P.A.T is carried out on a yearly basis with ourselves conducting a visual and checks on all our cables prior to each event. Please view our visual inspection sheet here.
