PAT testing checks whether your portable electrical appliances are safe to use. If you run a business or rent out property in Leeds, regular testing helps you meet your legal duties and protect your insurance.
Book your PAT test with Optima Electrical. We offer competitive per-item pricing.
Under the Electricity at Work Regulations 1989, employers must ensure all electrical equipment is safe for use.
Regular PAT testing is the simplest way to demonstrate compliance. Most offices, shops and workplaces test annually. Higher-risk environments like construction sites or industrial units may need more frequent checks.
We test during or outside business hours to minimise disruption. Our engineers carry out minor repairs on the spot. Damaged plugs and fuses are replaced where possible.
There is no specific law requiring landlords to carry out PAT testing. However, landlords do have a duty to ensure that electrical appliances provided to tenants are safe.
A PAT certificate provides documented evidence that appliances have been checked. Without this record, it may be difficult to demonstrate due diligence in the event of an incident or insurance claim.
If you are booking an EICR for a rental property, PAT testing can usually be completed during the same visit.
Each appliance is visually inspected and electrically tested to the EICR page here as it could be construed as we do EICRS when PAT testing Appliances that pass receive a dated sticker. Failed items are clearly labelled.
You will receive a certificate listing every appliance tested and the result.
We provide professional PAT testing for landlords and businesses across Leeds.
Our pricing is based on a simple per-item structure with no call-out fees. Testing can be arranged around your schedule to minimise disruption.
For businesses that require regular compliance checks, we can also arrange annual testing reminders.
