Service Solutions specialise in the
provision of portable appliance electrical
safety inspection and testing services, commonly
known as Portable Appliance Testing or PAT.  Based in
Burnley we provide our services to customers throughout the
North West including Lancashire, Manchester, Cheshire, Merseyside
and West Yorkshire.

PAT testing will keep your organisation or company up to date with your insurer’s requirements and with the statutory regulations under the Health & Safety at Work Act (HASAWA), the Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations (PUWER) and the Electricity at Work Regulations (EAWR’s).

PAT testing is a thorough and rigorous procedure of physical inspection and tests which are applied to all electrical portable and transportable equipment to certify their safety and thereby help to prevent electrical accidents such as fire or electrocution. 

Portable Appliance Testing should today be a part of every company’s health & safety policy and risk assessment documentation. We can ensure that your company or organisation is fulfilling these mandatory requirements and thereby prevent prosecution and loss of insurance cover in the event of an accident occurring.  There’s not only safety to consider, but we do live in an increasingly “where there’s blame there’s a claim” society where individuals are very prepared to attempt to sue their employer (or anyone else) whenever there is the slightest opportunity.  Here at Service Solutions we can ensure that you stay on the right side of the law with regard to electrical safety in your organisation and thereby minimise the risk of prosecution in these circumstances.
