Hi. Ive just started reading up on appliance testing and wondered if anyone could help me with a couple of things please.
1 Should ALL appliances, for arguments sake,ones with a plug only(in this instance) Be tested for a PAT Cert for a business to be issued?
For example. Even if there is a mass of cables to computers etc etc in a dark small area, Which was the case in a place i used to work.
All the stuff got tested apart from the areas that had video switchers, pa amplifiers pcs etc.
I gather you need to un plug ALL peripherals from each piece of equipment being tested?
Soo many input and output cables to be unplugged to test each device equals a testers nightmare i presume? Would this be why they dont get tested? and how does that effect PAT Certification for the business?
Thanks in advance for any thoughts offered on this.
