Why PAT Testing Matters for Self-Employed Professionals in Oxford
Many self-employed people work in environments where safety is critical – on-site, in clients’ homes, or at public venues. Damaged plugs, frayed cables, or faulty tools can pose real risks to both you and those around you.
PAT testing proves your equipment is safe to use, helps you meet legal duties under the Electricity at Work Regulations, and often satisfies insurance or contract conditions.
Getting your gear PAT tested helps you:
- Gain access to sites or client premises
- Prove your commitment to health and safety
- Avoid hazards and prevent equipment faults
- Comply with insurance policies and contracts
It’s a simple step that adds professionalism and protection to your work.
