ABTT One Day PAT course now open for applications
2nd Nov 2012
Date: Sunday 20th January 2012
Portable Appliance Testing
The course will set
out systems to organise the portable appliance testing of theatre
electrical equipment and for theatre electricians to comply with the
Electricity at Work Regulations for inspection & testing of portable
appliances. The course includes visual inspection and electrical
testing; testing periods; record keeping; managing the system of
inspection and testing; selection of suitable testing instruments.
Following on from the recent Löfstedt Report, the course reflects the
widely misunderstood requirement to carry out inspection annually,
regardless of equipment, type, usage or environment, and the need to
‘risk assess' the requirement for inspections and test. The course also
covers the use of hired equipment, examining where responsibilities lie
with reference to the hire company and the hirer.
