What is Fixed Installation Testing?

Fixed Installation Testing involves the detailed inspection and testing of electrical installations that are part of a building’s infrastructure. This includes panels, sockets, lighting, and other permanent systems. Unlike PAT testing, this process focuses solely on fixed components to ensure they meet safety standards and operate efficiently. At PPL Electrical Services, we utilise advanced equipment and proven techniques to assess your installations, providing comprehensive reports and peace of mind.

Is Fixed Installation Testing a Legal Requirement?

Yes, businesses are legally required to ensure the safety of their electrical installations under the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 and the Electricity at Work Regulations 1989. Regular Fixed Installation Testing demonstrates compliance with these regulations, helping to protect employees and visitors from electrical hazards. Non-compliance can lead to significant risks, fines, and legal issues. PPL Electrical Services ensures your systems meet these essential safety requirements.

How Often Should Testing Be Conducted?

The frequency of Fixed Installation Testing depends on the type of premises and its environment. Industrial facilities typically require testing every three years, while commercial offices and retail spaces may have a five-year interval. Areas exposed to water, such as swimming pools, often require annual inspections. Our team provides tailored recommendations based on your specific needs, ensuring your installations remain safe and compliant at all times.
