Portable Appliance Testing (PAT Testing) is the process by which electrical appliances are checked to see if they are safe. To be able to carry out PAT Testing yourself you need to be deemed competent.
Our PAT Training Courses can be delivered remotely, at your place of work or at one of our scheduled courses in Cork, Dublin or Galway. The course will take a full day to complete and are carried out by our highly qualified training instructors with extensive experience in their field.
Partaking in this PAT Training course will give you an in depth understanding of what PAT testing is, the legal conditions to PAT testing, various testing methods involved in PAT testing as well as the applicable equipment needed. Our course is very reasonably priced at €350 per person or group rates can be arranged for on-site courses.
Our Portable Appliance Testing Training Courses are carried out by fully qualified & experienced training instructors, and will enable you to carry out the practical inspection and testing of electrical equipment to comply with all current Health & Safety legislation. You’ll also learn all there is to know about the administrative responsibilities for the maintenance of electrical equipment.
