What is PAT Testing?

Portable Appliance Testing (PAT) is the inspection and testing of portable electrical appliances — anything with a plug, from kettles and toasters to washing machines and lamps — to confirm they are safe to use. Our engineer visually inspects each appliance for damage, then carries out electrical safety tests including earth continuity and insulation resistance.

While not a named legal requirement, PAT Testing is the recognised way for landlords in Ealing to demonstrate they have met their duty of care under the Landlord and Tenant Act 1985 and the Electrical Equipment (Safety) Regulations 2016. Most landlord insurance policies specifically require it for furnished lets.

Insurance note: PAT Testing is not a named legal minimum, but landlords in Ealing should check their buildings and contents insurance policy — many insurers will refuse a claim arising from a faulty appliance if you cannot produce a current PAT certificate.

PAT Testing in Ealing — local property context

Ealing's housing peaks in the early 20th century. In VOA 2025 figures, 22.9% of council tax properties date from the 1930s and 15.6% from 1900 to 1918, against 16.0% and 8.2% across London (VOA 2025). Purpose-built flats hold 34.5% of households, terraced houses 23.4% and semi-detached houses 21.9% (Census 2021). The council says HMOs are spread across its seven towns, with most in Acton and Ealing town.

As of the council's July 2026 figures, Ealing's licensed HMOs house 24,705 tenants, and its teams carry out about 400 selective licensing inspections of single-household homes a month. Our accredited PAT testers regularly test furnished lets and HMOs across the W3, W5, UB6, UB5, W13, UB1, W7, UB2, W4, NW10 postcode areas, and carry out PAT Testing across Ealing for private landlords, letting agents and HMO operators.

PAT testing in Ealing HMOs: vacuum cleaners and receipts

Ealing's HMO Standards ask for a PAT certificate every year and add two practical points: include vacuum cleaners in the test, and keep the receipts for any appliance under a year old. The receipt is the evidence of an appliance's age if it has not yet been through a test.
