Member Spotlight: Sam Lanyon: Cornwall PAT Testing

Cornwall PAT Testing is run by DPN member Sam Lanyon and offers small business and charity friendly portable appliance testing in the region, with a 10% discount for DPN members. www.cornwallpat.com/ What?

Portable Appliance Testing (PAT) is relevant to every business, whether a sole-trader or it employs hundreds of staff. Portable Appliance Testing involves a detailed recorded inspection of each relevant item and a series of computer controlled tests after which a PASS or FAIL label is issued.

Why?

The Health & Safety Executive states that 25% of all reportable electrical accidents involve portable appliances.

Portable Appliance Testing is the simplest way to comply with the HSE Electricity At Work Regulations which place a legal responsibility on employers, employees and the self-employed to ensure that the use of portable appliances (covering most electrical items with a plug and lead) is safe. This is achieved by a program of maintenance, inspection and testing.

The Health & Safety At Work Act also places obligations on businesses where appliances are used by employees, the public or they are hired, supplied, serviced or repaired.

Cornwall Pat Testing provides quick and easy guidance and compliance for local businesses and organisations at charitable prices.

If your PAT is out of date or you have never had it done (let’s not mention this to your insurers…) then call Sam directly on 07870 154039 and ask for an additional 10% DPN member discount. Prices start from as little as £30.
