About Us
Premier PAT Testing Ltd is a Leicester based company which specialises in portable appliance testing (PAT Testing). We provide a reliable, professional and friendly electrical testing service at competitive prices to offices, shops, factories, DJ's, bands, schools, photographers landlords and letting agents etc.
We typically carry out portable appliance testing (electrical testing) in Leicester, Loughborough, Rutland, Oakham, Ashby-de-la-Zouch, Coalville, Hinckley, Market Harborough, Melton Mowbray, Lutterworth, Oadby and Wigston. We are also happy to travel further afield to Nottinghamshire, Derbyshire, Northamptonshire, Coventry and Birmingham and the rest of the East Midlands at no extra cost.
Our aim is to offer an efficient, reliable and professional portable appliance testing service which is also competitively priced. All our PAT Testers are fully trained, arrive in full company uniform and hold City and Guilds 2377 certificates. As a responsible business we carry Public Liability Insurance to the value of £1 million.
We base our PAT prices on the number of items that you need to have tested, the more items you have – the cheaper the item price becomes. We believe in an open pricing strategy, the price you see is the price you pay, we will not charge you VAT on top of our listed prices, nor will we charge you a 'mileage fee' or 'travelling fee'.
| Number of Items | Cost per Item (PAT) | Minimum Fee |
| 1 - 100 | £1.80 | £50 |
| 101 - 500 | £1.50 | N/A |
| 501 - 1000 | £1.10 | N/A |
| 1001 + | Call for a quote | N/A |
On Site Testing
If you only have a few items which need testing, these can be brought to our Leicester office and we will test them while you wait, we charge £3 per item for this service (with no minimum fee).
Free Repairs
The prices above include free repairs that can be carried out by our engineer on site, these include:
- Replacement of faulty or damaged mains plug (BS1363)
- Replacement of damaged or incorrectly rated fuses
- Re-wiring of incorrect or lose connections in the mains plug
- Repair to faulty cable grips in the mains plug
- Minor repairs requiring less than ten minutes labour
Following on from any repair that we carry out we will re test the item to ensure that it is safe to use.
On completion of our portable appliance tests we will produce a PAT Certificate which will list each item that has been tested, its location and the result of each test. During the electrical testing process each item will be given a pass or fail sticker with an ID number for that item.
To make the testing process as smooth as possible for you, we are happy to carry out PAT Testing in or out of office hours including at weekends. Most of our customers prefer us to carry out portable appliance testing on their site, we do have a workshop for you to bring your items to however at a reduced rate.
You will receive your PAT Certificate (normally within 24 hours) in the form of a PDF file. A paper copy can be posted to you if you prefer. We will keep a copy of your PAT certificate on file for 5 years - just in case you misplace yours, duplicates are free of charge.
