# Durham PAT Testing

Durham PAT Testing is a specialist electrical safety company based in Durham, providing Portable Appliance Testing (PAT Testing) and related services across the North East and North Yorkshire. The business serves commercial organisations, residential properties, landlords, letting agencies, and industrial facilities requiring compliance with health and safety electrical regulations.

The company distinguishes itself through qualified credentials—its electricians are British Steel time-served and STROMA certified—ensuring clients receive expert, insured testing. Rather than offering one-size-fits-all solutions, Durham PAT Testing provides a comprehensive range of specialist services tailored to different client needs. This includes standard PAT Testing for domestic and commercial equipment, Thermal Imaging for server rooms and sensitive environments where downtime isn't feasible, Electrical Installation Condition Reports (EICR), and dedicated Microwave Testing with thorough door seal and interlock inspections.

The business particularly understands the landlord sector, offering guidance on legal obligations under the Electrical Equipment (Safety) Regulations 1994, which require landlords to maintain all supplied mains electrical equipment safely. This specialist knowledge demonstrates their focus on solving real compliance challenges rather than simply conducting generic tests.

By combining technical expertise with practical understanding of their clients' constraints—such as minimising server room downtime—Durham PAT Testing positions itself as a knowledgeable partner in electrical safety compliance rather than a transactional service provider.
