This course is designed to challenge what you think you know and fill any gaps in your knowledge. Through a series of online lessons and tests, lots of different areas are covered, including the following:
Environment check, User check, Formal visual inspection and Electrical tests (Earth continuity, Insulation resistance, Polarity, Current leakage, Function check). Also Interpreting results, Record keeping and Labels.
Maybe you have been practising ‘PAT Testing’ for a while or have sat a ‘PAT Testing’ course in the past. Alternatively, you could be new to the industry. Whatever you development level, our on-site and online PAT Testing Training Courses are here to help you.
All of our courses are based on The IET Code of Practice for In-service Inspection and Testing of Electrical Equipment. We are currently on the 5th Edition (launched in October 2020). As a professional, we would strongly recommend all ‘PAT Testing’ contractors carry a copy for reference. We are human and are unlikely to remember everything.
You may decide that you would rather take a ‘face to face’ course delivered by an instructor. To answer this, we can either visit your premises or you could come to our offices. It is the same great course content, but with the backup of an instructor. It’s always nice to ask someone if you have questions or require clarification of something.
We can deliver your PAT Testing Course at your premises... you just need to be within 3 hours (about 150 miles) of DN21 1DY
Maybe you would rather visit our training centre in Gainsborough, Lincolnshire DN21 1DY

Find the great stuff that goes inside
All of our instructors have regulated teaching qualifications which demonstrate they are able to teach to nationally recognised standards. We make the learning experience interesting and enjoyable.
Whether you are going to be testing kettles and toasters, or complex scientific equipment, we can tailor our courses to suit your needs. With years of hands-on practical industry experience, we have a wealth of equipment knowledge.
Some people find the learning process quite difficult, so we can deliver 1-to-1 training to help remove the stress of a group situation. However, we also have the capability to deliver courses to groups of 12 or more, depending upon the size of venue available.
There are many aspects to consider when assessing the safety of electrical equipment. To ensure you know everything you need, our courses follow the IET Code of Practice for In-service Inspection and Testing of Electrical Equipment... the recognised industry standard publication.
