TestSafe miniPAT Appliance Tester

Description

Note: the miniPAT is not a full PAT tester. We recommend this product for use in checking your appliances' electrical safety in between official PAT testing.

The smallest, quickest and easiest way to check your appliances for electrical safety!

Designed as an accompanying instrument for use in the time period between official PAT testing procedures, the miniPAT evaluates all basic aspects of electrical safety to ensure that your appliances continue to be safe to use. It can be used with a variety of different appliances, including Class I, Class II, IT equipment, extension leads and other lead types (requires optional 4mm Socket IEC Adaptor Kit - sold separately).

Using the miniPAT couldn't be simpler; just plug in your appliance, make a connection as necessary and the instrument will evaluate the earth and insulation of the connected appliance. If the appliance's earth/insulation is within the specified parameters, it will shine a green LED light indicator for each. If not, a red LED indicator alerts you to a problem with the appliance and that it has failed.

Testing Examples

	Class 1 Appliance: PC The appliance is plugged into the miniPAT. Appliance switch is in the ON position. Attach the probe onto the appliance casing and press the test button. As this is a class 1 appliance, all LEDs must be green.
	Class 1 Appliance: Electrical Water Urn The appliance is plugged into the miniPAT. Appliance switch is in the ON position. Attach the probe to clean metal work on the appliance and press the test button. As this is a class 1 appliance, all LEDs must be green.
	Class 1 Appliance: Extension Lead Plug the included extension lead into the miniPAT. Plug the supplied earth adapter into the extension lead and repeat for each socket.
	Class 2 Appliance: Drill Plug the extension lead into the miniPAT. Attach the earth probe onto any exposed metalwork and press the test button. Latch the switch in the ON position. As this is a Class II appliance we need to check that both the insulation and overall class II LEDs are illuminated green. This appliance has passed

As can be seen, the miniPAT is suitable for most types of common electrical appliance found in shops, hotels, bed and breakfasts, charities and much more.

TestSafe MiniPAT Technical Specifications

Electrical
Resistance Ranges	Class I Appliances and Cables	The L-E LED will light red when the reistance between the line to earth on the appliance or cable is lower than 1MΩ ±5%
		The N-E LED will light red when the resistance between neutral to earth is lower than 1MΩ ±5%.
		The earth bond LED will light green when the resistance between the earth of the appliance or cable to the probe is lower than 0.3Ω ±5%
	Class II Appliances	The Class II result will be red if the insulation falls below 2MΩ
		The insulation LEDs will flash alternatively if the resistance is between 2MΩ and 1MΩ.
