Description

This programme is about clarity, simplicity, and impact.

Each module is practical and immediately applicable. You’ll analyse UK legislation in depth, categorise equipment accurately, interpret measurements and reports, design risk-based testing schedules, manage remote-working liabilities, and build rigorous quality assurance—so you can reduce failures, cut cost without cutting safety, and pass audits with ease.

Course modules cover the following topics:

  • Advanced Legal and Regulatory Requirements – In-depth analysis of UK legislation (EAWR, PUWER); PAT and insurance implications; legal defensibility of testing records; employer vs contractor obligations; compliance auditing for PAT testing.
  • Comprehensive Equipment Categorisation – Advanced classification of equipment types; portable vs fixed vs stationary equipment; double-insulated appliances and Class II exemptions; high-risk equipment and testing priorities; interpreting manufacturer recommendations.
  • Testing Theory and Measurement Interpretation – Circuit continuity, insulation, and earth testing theory; acceptable thresholds and failure indicators; common testing sequences and justifications; analysing test reports without instruments; pattern recognition in fault trends.
  • Risk-Based PAT Testing Scheduling – Creating a risk matrix for PAT planning; factors influencing test frequency; location and usage-based adjustments; cost-efficiency vs safety trade-offs; long-term testing strategy design.
  • Testing Responsibilities in Remote and Hybrid Workplaces – Employer liability for offsite equipment; remote testing coordination and oversight; employee awareness and handling; documentation in distributed teams; policy development for home-based equipment.
  • Error Prevention and Quality Assurance in PAT – Root causes of testing errors; peer review and second-check policies; training and re-training strategies; simulated test scenarios and evaluations; PAT within quality management systems.
