DBA PAT recognises that it can be a minefield trying to keep up-to-date with the latest legislation and legal requirements. And with at least five different legislative regulations that specifically focus on electrical maintenance, we know how difficult that can be. Here are the main five:

• Health & Safety at Work etc Act 1974
• Management of Health & Safety at Work Regulations 1999
• Electricity at Work Regulations 1989
• Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992
• Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations 1998

Employers and landlords are responsible for ensuring that the electrical equipment that is supplied to employees or tenants is safe to use and suitable for the purpose for which it is supplied. They are also responsible for the maintenance of the equipment and that means that regular, planned testing is the only way to ensure the safety of employees and tenants.

Because we maintain detailed, up-to-date records of test visits, including a full inventory of all tested appliances, DBA PAT can ensure your legal requirements and responsibilities are met giving you total peace of mind.
