Purpose of Testing

The importance of Testing Portable Appliances in the workplace and the Electrical installation of the workplace is for the safety of us all. "A pretty obvious reason" you might say, but we all have a duty of care to protect ourselves, our employees and our employers.

We are also obliged to ensure we comply with "The Electricity at work Regulations 1989". This legislation is often viewed by employers and employees alike as, bureaucratic red tape, just another hoop that the authorities want us to jump through to perpetuate jobs for the boys (and Electrical Testers).

At "smart-test" we believe Electrical Testing should be looked upon as a constructive tool. It can be used to organise a planned maintenance management programme, to help eliminate unexpected production hold ups and ultimately reduce breakdown costs.

At "smart-test" we can explain how to carry out testing correctly, with detailed certification. We can advise on The Institution of Electrical Engineers requirements and frequency of tests. How to set up a register to record reported faults found during user checks on Portable Appliances and routine checks on the fixed installation.

Let "smart-test" show you the most cost effective way of fulfilling all your Electrical Testing obligations.
