Your right about never knowing what you might find and it can be an eye opener what some people think is safe electric. That extension lead screwed to the wall is just unbelievable.
Can I ask for advise please. I'm new to pat testing having just passed my exams. While PAT testing a band saw in a workshop I experienced a tiny spark and pop during the test. Is this normal in some cases and if so could you explain why? Thanks for the videos they were a great help in my "training". hope to hear from you soon. Vic
I normally record it as a fail on my machine, put all failed items into one area and then inform the duty holder and show them. I would then take photos of all of them and add to my test records.
