A practical one-day PAT Testing course in London takes you from beginner to certified tester in just a day. Learn essential testing skills through real equipment, gain workplace confidence, and leave fully qualified to start PAT testing straight away. No prior experience needed.
By the end of this one-day PAT Testing course, you’ll have the practical skills and understanding needed to confidently test electrical equipment in your workplace or begin offering PAT testing services.
Our London PAT Testing Course is designed for learners who want real practical skills, not just theory. Delivered face-to-face in one day, this hands-on training helps you gain the confidence, knowledge and certification needed to carry out PAT testing safely and professionally.
On successful completion, you will receive a CPD-accredited PAT Testing certificate. This gives you evidence of your training and competence, helping you demonstrate your understanding of portable appliance testing in line with the Electricity at Work Regulations 1989.
Unlike basic online courses, this training gives you real experience using industry-standard PAT testing equipment. You will practise inspection and testing throughout the day, so you leave with practical confidence as well as a certificate. You are welcome to bring your own PAT tester, or we can provide one for use during the session.
The course is taught in line with the current IET Code of Practice, 5th Edition. This means your training reflects modern standards, best practice and the expectations placed on anyone carrying out PAT testing in the UK.
You will learn in a supportive London classroom environment with an experienced PAT testing trainer. Small group sizes allow for personal guidance, practical feedback and continuous assessment throughout the day. No previous experience is required, and support is available even after you complete the course.

The Electricity at Work Regulations 1989 highlight the significance of keeping electrical equipment that may cause injury in a safe and well-maintained state. PAT is recommended by regulatory bodies such as the Health and Safety Executive to ensure compliance with health and safety regulations. Failure to carry out PAT testing could result in fines or legal consequences in the event of an accident caused by faulty electrical equipment.
