Portable Appliance Testing (PAT) - Working at Home or Remote Locations - Request for Help

John Beirne

Portable Appliance Testing (PAT) - Working at Home or From Remote Locations



Not withstanding the fact that there is no legal requirement to undertake Portable Appliance Testing, there is a myriad of regulations which a Duty Holder/organisation is to adhere to to ensure that their electrical equipment is safe and officially legal to be used.



The IET has been asked by a government agency to look at how other corporate members, in particular large organisations, are approaching Portable Appliance Testing for their staff who continue to work from home.  Therefore, we would be extremely grateful if you would assist our investigation by answering the following questions:



1.  Are you currently working from home? Yes / No


2.  Are you using your firms electronic portable equipment? Yes / No


3.  Has it undergone a Portable Appliance Test? Yes / No / Not Sure

 


a.  Is there a Portable Appliance Testing sticker on the equipment? Yes / No

 


b.  Does the sticker have a Valid Until Date? Yes / No

 


c.  If yes, is the date valid? Yes / No



Use of Personal Electronic Equipment at Home for Work Purpose.



1.  Are you using your personal electronic portable equipment for your firms activities? Yes / No



2.  Has it undergone a Portable Appliance Test? Yes / No



Please do not inform us who you work for.



In anticipation, thank you for your assistance.



Kind regards,



John

    Thank you for your comment.  I am the one who wrote this rubbish.  But thank you for correcting me about furlough, that was my mistake.
