A practical approach to electrical safety
Electrical appliances are part of everyday working life, but damaged cables, worn plugs and other faults can easily go unnoticed.
Portable appliance testing, commonly known as PAT testing, combines visual inspection with electrical testing where appropriate to help identify equipment that may be unsafe.
At FUSE PAT Testing, we make the process straightforward. We discuss what needs checking, arrange a suitable visit and provide results that help you keep track of your equipment and any items requiring attention.

PAT testing for a wide range of workplaces
Different premises have different demands. We take account of how your building is used and discuss any access or operational requirements before testing begins.
Offices and retail businesses
We inspect and test equipment used in offices, shops and home-based businesses, from computers and printers to kitchen appliances and extension leads. For larger premises, we can discuss how to organise testing across your workspace.
Schools, nurseries and care homes
Our DBS-checked testers are experienced in working in settings used by children, residents, staff and visitors. We work considerately and can discuss your site procedures and suitable appointment times when booking.
Hotels, restaurants and hospitality venues
Guest rooms, reception areas and staff facilities can contain a wide range of electrical appliances. We plan testing with your team, taking room access and busy service periods into account.
Landlords and property managers
We work with individual landlords, letting agents and property managers to inspect and test appliances supplied in rented properties. We provide records of the equipment checked and its results.
Industrial premises and construction businesses
We also test equipment used in industrial and construction environments, including power tools, cleaning equipment and other workplace appliances. Contact us to discuss your equipment and site requirements.

Emergency lighting testing
Alongside PAT testing, we provide emergency lighting testing for commercial premises.

Contact us to discuss your system and the testing you require, either as a separate service or alongside an appliance testing visit.
Why choose FUSE PAT Testing?
Choosing a testing provider is about more than arranging an appointment. You need someone who understands your requirements, works carefully and provides useful information afterwards.
Our experienced testers hold City & Guilds qualifications in portable appliance testing. We combine this knowledge with a practical approach to working in occupied premises and a commitment to clear communication.
From your first enquiry to the completed testing records, we aim to make the process easy to understand and manage.
