The kettle is not 2 years overdue as a risk assessment should recommend the retest period. PAT testing companies will recommend yearly tests but in the right environment the test can be 2-3 apart
I work for a very big uk pat testing company and when we test any two part kettle it is treated as two items the base is one kettle is two and a label gets put on both parts ? Some people are counting it as one item some two . Whats everyone's view on this?
Hello, how does the testing work to justify it as two items? Do you test the base by itself and then take a separate test where you add the kettle on top? Also, I find it very interesting, since if one item fails, then wouldn't the whole product be rendered useless? I'm just very curious as I just picked up this new qualification, and I'm still figuring things out :).
@senorpatata3440 yes test both parts . Pass on fail label it as appropriate. Some kettle's have a lead only test that then plug it in to the kettle and test that.
Thanks for the great video. I got involved in a debate on a fecebook pat test forum where guys were saying you have to test the kettle base seperately so a kettle is two test. I have never heard of this have you?
Great video and loved the cats appearance!

Did you ever do a video on the pat tester?
Do I Need To Plug This Pat Tester In The Wall To Make It Work Or Does It Come With A Battery Charger ?
