How To PAT Test A Kettle !

HOW TO TEST A KETTLE 

Check the kettle for obvious signs of damage during a visual inspection. If there's anything that looks dangerous, fail it.If passed, you should then proceed to empty out the kettle before carrying out the next testing procedures.At this point you will be required to find a suitable earthing point for your earth bond lead. This is generally inside the metal casing inside the tester. Once you've found a suitable metal point, .Once an earthing point is located, perform the following testing procedures:

• Earth Bond
• Insulation at 500V DC

The Electricity at Work Regulations 1989

The Electricity at Work Regulations 1989 

These regulations, in particular, are very relevant to the inspection and testing of in-service electrical equipment.

It states that, 'As may be necessary to prevent danger, all systems shall be maintained so as to prevent, so far as is reasonably practicable, such danger' and provides that electrical equipment shall be 'maintained in a condition suitable for that use'.

It can be seen that these regulations place a duty upon employers and owners to ensure that all electrical systems and equipment are regularly inspected and (if need be) repaired to ensure that they are safe to use.

There are two important definitions in the EWR: the electrical system and the duty holder.

Electrical system

This is anything that generates, stores, transmits or uses electrical energy, from a power station to a wrist-watch battery. The latter would not give a person an electric shock, but could explode if heated, giving rise to possible injury from burns.

Duty holder

This is anyone (employer, employee, self-employed person etc.) who has 'control' of an electrical system. Control in this sense means designing, installing, working with or maintaining such systems. Duty holders have a legal responsibility to ensure their own safety and the safety of others whilst in control of an electrical system.

The EWR do not specifically mention portable appliance testing and inspection; they simply require electrical systems to be 'maintained' in a condition so as not to cause danger. However, the only way we know if a system needs to be maintained is if it is inspected and tested, and so the need for such inspection and testing of a system is implicit in the requirement for it to be maintained.

Anyone who inspects and tests and electrical system is, in law, a duty holder and must be competent to undertake such work.

Prosecutions

Offences committed under The Electricity at Work Regulation 1989 may be liable for : £20,000 fine for each offence in Magistrates' Court and unlimited fines/prison sentences in Crown Court.

The Provision & Use of Work Equipment Regulations 1998

Work equipment must be constructed in such a way that it is suitable for the purpose for which it is to be used. Once again, the employer is responsible for these arrangements. It is the duty of every employer to: 'ensure that work equipment is so constructed or adapted as to be suitable for the purpose for which it is used or provided'.The Regulations also cover the duty of employers to carry out risk assessments with regards to 'the health and safety of persons which exist in the premises'. Clearly, employers have a duty, not only to employees, but also to any visitors to their premises.Covers maintenance under S.5.(1) 'Every employer shall ensure that work equipment is maintained in an efficient state, in efficient working order and in good repair'. S.5(2) provides that maintenance logs be kept up to date.Covers inspection under S.6(1) Every employer shall ensure that work equipment is inspected: (a) 'after installation and before being put into service' (b) 'after assembly at a new site or location'. It can be seen that even new equipment should be inspected before use. Equipment moved to a new location should be inspected to ensure that it has been properly assembled and has not been damaged during transit. S.6(2) places a duty on every employer to ensure that work equipment subject to deterioration is inspected at: S.6(2)(a) 'suitable intervals' S.6(2)(b) 'each time that exceptional circumstances which are liable to jeopardise the safety of work equipment have occurred'.They also provide that electrical systems and equipment be regularly inspected and tested to ensure that they are safe for use and that additional inspection and testing is necessary after possible damage due to fire, flood etc.The inspection and testing should be carried out by a 'competent person', this being a person with the necessary skills, experience and qualifications.
