I don't know if you are either delusional or pretentious or even both don't get me wrong you are certainly confident in your abilities so please forgive me for being cynical but to he honest I have seen guys like you too many times and sadly its people like you who have brought PAT testing to its knees plus you tick the boxes of a bitter individual who was in a dead end job and now you have found a new religion in PAT . Like most of the guys who have replied I have followed guys like you where the client only has a list of numbers on what has been tested he has no assset list or cat I or II ,fuse,make,model serial number. I have lost count the ammount of fuses I have had to replace or hoover leads I have had to repair because the "professional PAT engineers" who I have followed never bothered to check.
So I find it breathtaking in my view your pompous statement of how many lives saved are being saved but then again if it was not for individuals like you I would not be getting calls from concerned customers.
To sum up you are basically what we call in the trade as a "Sticker Jockey" who is a risk to himself and others the whole idea of PAT was to test equipment for safety and the only thing is after the HSE review there is only one way this is going ie the test periods are going to increase meaning less work for the sticker jockeys and some will go out of business.
Also if I may be so bold to ask what is your background before PAT ?
