Testing Standards and Risk Assessment

AspectClass IClass IIClass III
DefinitionAppliances with basic insulation and an earth connection for safety.Appliances with double or reinforced insulation, no earth connection.Low-voltage appliances (≤50V AC) with no earth, designed for safety.
Construction– Three-core cable (Live, Neutral, Earth).
– Exposed metal parts.
– E.g., kettles, toasters, metal microphones.		– Two-core cable (Live, Neutral).
– Plastic casing, double square symbol.
– E.g., plastic projectors, laptops.		– Powered by SELV (Separated Extra-Low Voltage) or battery.
– E.g., phone chargers, low-voltage LED lights.
PAT Tests Required1. Visual Inspection
2. Earth Continuity Test
3. Insulation Resistance Test
4. Leakage Current Test (optional)		1. Visual Inspection
2. Insulation Resistance Test
3. Touch Current Test (optional)		1. Visual Inspection
No electrical tests due to low voltage safety.
Test Details & Limits– Visual Inspection: Check plug, cable, casing for damage. Pass: No visible faults.
– Earth Continuity: Measures resistance of earth path. Limit: ≤0.1Ω + cable resistance (typically ≤0.2Ω for 1m cord).
– Insulation Resistance: Tests insulation between live parts and earth. Limit: ≥1MΩ (domestic), ≥2MΩ (commercial).
– Leakage Current: Measures current to earth. Limit: ≤0.75mA (portable appliances).		– Visual Inspection: Check plug, cable, casing. Pass: No visible faults.
– Insulation Resistance: Tests insulation between live parts and accessible surfaces. Limit: ≥1MΩ (domestic), ≥2MΩ (commercial).
– Touch Current: Measures leakage via accessible parts. Limit: ≤0.25mA.		– Visual Inspection: Check plug, cable, casing. Pass: No visible faults.
– No electrical tests, as risk is minimal due to low voltage.
Testing Interval (Village Hall)Every 12 months (annually)Every 24 months, with annual visual inspectionsVisual inspection annually, no electrical tests
Justification for Interval– Higher risk: Relies on earth connection, critical for safety in public settings.
– Frequent use/movement: Kettles, microphones moved by hirers, increasing damage risk.
– Public access: Village halls have untrained users, raising liability.
– IET Guidance: Recommends 12-24 months for portable Class I in commercial settings; annual testing ensures compliance with HSE and insurance.
– Risk assessment: Regular use in a community setting justifies shorter intervals.		– Lower risk: Double insulation reduces shock risk.
– Moderate use: Projectors, laptops used less frequently, often stored safely.
– IET Guidance: Suggests 24-48 months for Class II in low-risk environments; 24 months balances safety and cost.
– Annual visual checks: Catch damage from public handling, sufficient for low-risk items.
– Risk assessment: Less frequent electrical testing due to robust insulation.		– Minimal risk: Low voltage (≤50V AC) eliminates shock hazard.
– IET Guidance: Visual inspection only, no fixed interval; annual checks align with hall maintenance.
– Low usage: Chargers, lights rarely moved or damaged.
– Risk assessment: Visual checks sufficient to ensure cables/plugs remain safe in a low-risk environment.
