Electrical SafetyThere are legal duties on manufacturers and suppliers covering the initial integrity and safety of new work equipment. The particular legal requirements relating to the use and maintenance (and by implication, examination and testing) of electrical equipment are contained in the Electricity at Work Regulations 1989. Regulation 4(2) states: 'System', as defined in the Regulations, includes portable equipment. Thus, the Regulations require certain safety objectives to be achieved but do not prescribe in detail the measures to be taken. Instead precautions must be selected appropriate to risk, depending on particular work activities. Training Courses: Portable Appliance Testing (Nov 7) - 'Excellent trainer and presentation, learnt more than expected and found it informative and useful', 'Excellent, the practical element was of most value', 'Excellent practical elements, good presenter, useful event'. PAT course feedback - 'Enjoyed both the theory and practical elements - thanks', 'Useful days training', 'Good mix of theory, films and practical'.
