Please use diligence when sourcing training providers online you should be cautious of Online Courses and DVD's.


The Health and Safety Executive advise competence at two levels (Guidance Notes HSG107)


49) Combined inspection and testing requires a greater degree of competence (in terms of knowledge, training and experience) than for inspection alone, because appropriate electrical knowledge is needed to undertake the tests and interpret the test results. However, it can often be carried out by a competent employee.


50) People testing portable electrical equipment should be appropriately trained.

It is the employer’s duty to make sure that they are competent for the work they are to carry out.



Level 1: requires no interpretation of results and limited to simple Pass/fail test instrument. (Simple Pass/fail instruments may fail some appliances unnecessarily where higher earth readings are present by design or mains filtered)


Level 2: requires the user to have the ability 'competence' to interpret test results by using a machine that displays individual results.

We provide sufficient, accredited training at Level 2 so that a Duty Holder is able to make informed decisions on frequencies for inspecting and testing their workplace electrical appliances in accordance with HSE Guidance and the IET Code of Practice for In-service Inspection and Testing of Electrical Equipment.




Frequently Asked Questions

  • Can you come to US?Yes, We can provide in-house training at your workplace. All we require is a training room to accommodate.
  • Is this an Accredited PAT Testing Course?

    Yes, the course is CPD Accredited and recognised as Continuous Professional Development.

  • What if we want only 1 person trained?

    That's OK we like to keep our classes reasonably small anyway, and we find classes from 1-10 persons work best. Ideally we like to keep Candidates to a maximum of 6 as the course is intensive and helps with tutor/Candidate engagement both in theory sessions and practical.
