Riassunto:

This is the 4th edition of the IET's Code of Practice for Inservice Inspection and Testing of Electrical Equipment. The book has been revised to take account of the PAT aspects of Professor Löfstedts report and the HSE view that promotes a proportionate riskbased approach when assessing the safety of electrical equipment and appliances. This will help users, those responsible for the equipment and testers of the equipment to maintain safety. HSE encourages the adoption of this approach and the changes will also be reflected in the City & Guilds 2377 course. The Code of Practice enables duty holders to understand the requirements placed on them in law to maintain electrical equipment, using correct documentation, that falls under their control and to understand what inspection and testing involves. It also gives guidance to those carrying out inservice inspection and testing of electrical equipment (PAT).

Recensione: We welcome this revised Code of Practice. It complements HSE's guidance on maintaining portable electrical equipment and provides sensible, proportionate advice so that those who create the risks know how to manage them effectively. By emphasising a balanced risk-"based approach to determine how frequently equipment should be maintained, it should help reduce the likelihood of businesses wasting money on unnecessary portable appliance testing." Peter Brown Head of HSE's Work Environment Division --Peter Brown, Head of HSE's Work Environment Division

If adopted by all local authorities this more risk based approach will lead to significant reductions in the unnecessary spending of tax payers money. This money can then be put to better use elsewhere. --Anthony Carter, Interim Director of Property, Leicester City Council
