Why PAT Tester Calibration Matters
Your PAT tester is a precision instrument, and a faulty one could pass an appliance that isn't actually safe.
To prevent this, we recommend calibrating your PAT tester or microwave checker annually, in line with the IET's PAT Testing Code of Practice, which states that:
"A test instrument's accuracy should be verified and recorded annually or in line with the manufacturer's instructions."
If you own a BattPAT or Microwave Checker, annual calibration also keeps your Lifetime Warranty valid, so any repairs are carried out free of charge.
