Portable appliance test (PAT) guidelines
The Portable Appliance Test is a set of tests that must be administered to electrical equipment in
the UK and some locations in Europe to ensure safety.The tests are typically carried out using a
small PAT device. The PAT device connects to a power source and then attaches to the product
via an electrical outlet and test probes. The PAT provides a simple pass or fail result, allowing rapid
testing of large inventories.
Source Four CE luminaires include a specific PAT point where the test clip is attached, as shown
in Figure 12. PAT tests should be performed by a qualified technician. Your local regulatory
authority has guidelines on the testing frequency.
