# PAT testing in Purley

> PAT testing in Purley covers the portable items listed for one premises. A shop on the Brighton Road parades is tested apart from the flat above it.

PAT testing in Purley covers portable items in the premises named. Shops on the Brighton Road parades are tested apart from the flats above, once each supply is labelled.


## How Purley portable testing is costed

The portable items written for one premises, tested and marked, are this price. A shop on the Foxley Lane parades does not include the flat above. Fixed wiring in a Webb Estate house is not inspected on this visit.
- PAT testing: from £120; £120 for up to 20 appliances, then £1.50 per additional appliance.
- A failed item is recorded and left out of use.
- A second premises is a second list.
- New sockets for a Laing house in Riddlesdown are not added here.

## What happens on the day

We test the portable items written for one premises, then label the ones that passed and set aside the ones that did not. On the Brighton Road and Foxley Lane parades the shop and the flat above are two lists, because their supplies are meant to be separated and labelled. A house on the Webb Estate can have more than one board, and that does not put the portable test onto both boards. In Riddlesdown the portable items are not a substitute for the extra sockets a 1930s Laing house was short of.

### Test the list in front of you

Each portable item named for that premises is tested and marked. Items that were not on the list stay out. A failed item is set aside rather than passed over.

### Split the parade into two lists

A shop on the Brighton Road parades is one list. The flat above is another, once the supplies are labelled. Foxley Lane shops are not mixed with the homes over them.

### Leave the fixed wiring alone

Boards on the Webb Estate are not opened so a kettle can be tested. Fixed wiring, and the extra sockets a Riddlesdown house may want, are different visits.

## Questions about PAT testing in Purley


### Is a shop on the Brighton Road parades the same test as the flat?

No. The supplies are meant to be labelled apart, so the shop's portable items and the flat's portable items are two lists.

### Do you open both boards on the Webb Estate?

Not for this test. Portable items are plugged in and tested. The split supply is a fixed wiring question, handled on an inspection.

### Will this add sockets in Riddlesdown?

No. A 1930s Laing house that wants more outlets needs those outlets booked. Testing a lamp does not fit them.

### What happens to an item that fails?

It is marked and set aside. It is not put back into use so the list can look complete, whether that was a shop item or a house item.

### Can Purley Oaks and the parade be one visit?

Only when each premises was named. A house in Purley Oaks and a shop on Foxley Lane are not one list.
