A typical day of a portable appliance testing (PAT) engineer
As a Portable Appliance Testing (PAT) engineer, no two days are the same. From hospitals to retail outlets, as an experienced PAT tester, you’ll find yourself in a variety of locations and environments. A typical day for a PAT tester starts with packing up all the necessary tools and equipment – including testers and record books – into the van before setting off to the first job.
Once on site, it’s time to get started on testing all appliances, such as microwaves, kettles and computers that require PAT testing. This can involve using various types of test instruments designed to check whether electrical items are safe for continued use or need to be replaced or repaired. As the PAT tester, you’ll also need to inform users of the results and explain why certain appliances may be unfit for use.
When all the testing is complete, you’ll record your findings in a dedicated PAT test report book or onto an electronic system and provide employers with a copy. You may also be required to fill out additional paperwork such as completion certificates and checklists.
Throughout the day, you’ll be constantly on the move from one location to another – either alone or part of a team – so it’s important to stay organised and make sure that all tests are completed accurately and efficiently.
It takes skill, experience and patience to be successful in this role but the rewards are great. As a PAT testing engineer, you’ll be helping to keep workplaces safe as well as developing your own knowledge and expertise in the process. Overall, PAT testing is an exciting job that is both physically and mentally demanding.

Your working day ‘on jobs’ is up to 8 hours + overtime as required. If the working day covers the full 8 hours, any extra time spent travelling or completing a job (overtime) will also be paid. Most travel will be within 30 minutes of your home base, although occasional longer journeys may be required.

During training period, you will need to use your own vehicle (or your mentor can pick you up if you’re both local to each other), and a company vehicle will be provided on completion of probation. It is recommended you have your own vehicle (with business use insurance) from starting. When using your own vehicle you will be recompensed with fuel allowance of 25p per mile.

All our engineers are required to hold the City and Guilds 2377-77, which is a requirement to pass the 6-month probation period. You will also need to pass an enhanced DBS check, and we’ll need to receive 2 postive reviews from former employers.
