Processes & Inspections

External Inspection of Equipment (Visual Test) – A thorough visual examination is carried out to check for any signs of damage, defects, wear, or unauthorised modifications. Plugs and connectors are inspected for discoloration, overheating marks, and general wear.

Protective Earth Continuity Test – This test ensures that the earth connection resistance is sufficiently low to allow the equipment to operate safely and correctly in the event of a fault.

Insulation Resistance Test – Measures the insulation resistance of the device to detect any leakage current that could pose a safety risk.

Polarity Test – Verifies that the equipment has been wired correctly. It is common to find cases where the active and neutral conductors have been reversed, which can create serious safety hazards.
