  • Full visual inspection

  • Insulation resistance test

  • Earth continuity test to test the appliance is correctly earthed

  • Earth leakage current test

  • Functional test to ensure correct and safe operation of the appliance

  • All items with a plug are tested using calibrated test equipment.

  • A full report and *certification is produced for your files indicating the results of the individual tests.

  • All tested items are labelled with an electrical safety pass sticker showing date of test, a unique item number and date of next test. This will ensure that the item can be tracked and provides a clear indication of its pass / fail status.
