PAT Test Labels by Caledonia Signs - Trade Only Supplier
PAT (Portable Appliance Testing) test labels are vital for promoting electrical safety in workplaces, schools, and any environment where electrical appliances are used. These labels are applied to equipment that has undergone PAT testing—a routine process that checks appliances for electrical faults or hazards. The label clearly indicates whether the item has passed or failed the test, along with the date of the test, the next due date, and the tester’s initials or ID. This provides users with immediate, visible assurance that the equipment is safe to use.
Using PAT test labels also helps organisations stay compliant with health and safety regulations. While PAT testing itself may not be a strict legal requirement, employers have a legal obligation to ensure electrical equipment is maintained in a safe condition. Displaying PAT labels supports this duty of care and helps demonstrate that proactive safety measures are being taken. This is particularly important in audits or inspections, where clear documentation of safety practices is required.
In addition to safety and compliance, PAT labels also aid in equipment management. With key information such as test dates and asset numbers, the labels can help maintenance teams keep track of service schedules and identify equipment that may need repairs or replacement. This organised approach improves efficiency and reduces the risk of equipment failure or downtime.
Overall, PAT test labels are a simple yet effective way to communicate the safety status of portable electrical appliances. They support a culture of responsibility, ensure regulatory readiness, and most importantly, help protect users from potential electrical accidents.

Why get safety signs printed by Caledonia Signs?
1. Regulatory Compliance One of the primary reasons to have safety signs professionally printed is to ensure compliance with UK laws. The Health and Safety (Safety Signs and Signals) Regulations 1996 require that specific safety signs be used in workplaces to prevent accidents and injuries. Caledonia Signs understand these requirements and ensure your signs meet legal standards, including adherence to the BS EN ISO 7010 format for safety symbols. Adhering to the BS EN ISO 7010 format is crucial because it ensures safety signs are universally recognised and understood. The standard uses clearly defined symbols that have been tested for visibility and comprehension, making them effective even in high-stress situations or for individuals who do not speak the local language. This helps prevent accidents by enabling quick and correct responses to potential hazards. Many "pop up printers" don't fully understand the importance of ISO 7010. From a legal standpoint, compliance with ISO 7...>>> READ MORE >>>
