PAT Testing Books & Logbooks
Whether you want a practical PAT testing book to build your knowledge or a logbook to record your results, our range is written to sit alongside real PAT testing equipment, not to replace a proper course.
PAT Training vs. PAT Guides
A good PAT testing book won't replace hands-on training, but it's a genuinely useful companion to it, whether you're brushing up before your first test, or you just want a clear reference to hand when a question comes up.
Our range covers everything from an in-depth technical handbook to a straightforward day-to-day logbook for recording results.
PAT Testing Books
Handbook of Portable Appliance Testing (Edition 3)
This EDITION 3 of the Handbook of Portable Appliance Testing (published Nov 2021) gives practical answers to questions raised during PAT testing. It is much easier to understand than the IET Code of Practice (COP). It strikes a balance between giving enough technical background and easy to follow practical advice in implementing a PAT testing scheme.
In 2020 the IET launched Edition 5 of the “Code of Practice for In-service Inspection and Testing of Electrical Equipment”. This introduced a number of significant changes to the recommendations on how Portable Appliance Testing is carried out. This latest edition of the handbook reflects these new recommendations. There is a brief summary of the changes in Appendix 7.

PAT Testing Made Easy
This is a simple guide to maintaining appliances in low-risk environments like offices, shops, hotels and nursing homes. It is also a guide for people working from home so that they can continue to make sure that any device they use for work is safe to use.
This book has hit a nice balance between the information that is freely available on-line and attending a PAT training course. While the course remains a necessity for those wanting a practical session and a certificate, this book helps to demystify the subject and gets you started quickly.
