Common PAT Adaptor Questions

Only for certain equipment. Standard 230V appliances with a normal plug generally don't need one. Adaptors come in for laptops with 3-core leads, 110V site equipment, extension leads, and 3-phase appliances, anything that doesn't plug directly into a standard tester.

Our selection chart above covers the most common scenarios at a glance. If you're still not sure, get in touch and we can talk through what you're testing.

It's an industry convention: Yellow for 110V, Blue for 230V, Red for 3-phase. It makes it quick to grab the right adaptor at a glance, especially useful if you're testing a mix of equipment in one session.
