PAT Testing

[AMS]

This has probably been aired before, but nevermind. Can anybody tell me who is legally allowed to do PAT testing. Are there any good publications out there thet will clarify the issue?

Cheers all,

Dave

Re: PAT Testing

Check your local college, they may offer the Pat Testing course. There is a qualification for it. One of business mates in Scotland went through it a couple of years ago. I didn’t (more’s the pity) but I still have my Pat Tester.

Re: PAT Testing

To legally do pat testing you need to be competent to do so meaning 2 exams at college these are City & Guilds 2377/01 Management of Electrical Equipment Maintance
City & Guilds 2377/02 Inspection and Testing of Electrical Equipment
And of course you will need a pat tester witch needs a calibration certificate and will itself need pat testing.
the course i was on was 1 evening a week for 6 weeks. but you can do a full day then go for the exams depending on your working hours.
