    Yep, our 'Safety Certificate' is suspiciously similar in content to the UK portable appliance testing, the main difference is that we don't offer to test every appliance in the place for 50 pence per item.

    I think portable appliance testing has got merit when it comes to improving safety but it's the kind of thing that's open to abuse. We have a couple of clients who we perform an annual PAT schedule for but they're both non-SA companies. PAT testing hasn't exactly been embraced by the locals.
