Read this before you book: you need a PAT tester with you on the day. This is a practical course and you will be testing on your own machine, so unlike our venue courses there is no tester to lend you. If you do not have one, add one to your booking.

Everything you need

What is included

One price, no upsells. You do not have to be an electrician to do PAT testing.

UKRS-accredited certificate

Exactly the same Certificate of Competence as our in-person courses. It follows within 7 to 10 days of the course.

A live, tutor-led day

A real trainer, live over Zoom. Ask questions, take part, and get an answer there and then rather than filling in a form.

Practical elements included

Morning theory, then guided hands-on testing on your own tester, finishing with an assessment.

Lifetime after-course support

The course ends; the questions don’t. Pick up the phone whenever something comes up — that is included, not chargeable.

Free PAT Reporter app

For recording and issuing your test results once you are working.

No electrical experience needed

Built for people starting from scratch — the syllabus assumes nothing.

Course overview

Who the live online course is for

Anyone over 18 who wants to carry out practical PAT testing — taking testing in-house to cut costs, keeping a workplace compliant, or starting a PAT testing business — without travelling to a venue. It is built for people with little or no electrical experience.

What you will learn: electrical safety, regulations and responsibilities, appliance classes I, II and III, insulation and earthing, earth leakage and run tests, load tests, and how to record results correctly.

How the day runs: morning theory over Zoom, then guided hands-on testing on your own PAT tester, finishing with an assessment. Your UKRS certificate follows within 7 to 10 days. Typically 9:30 to 16:30.

Prefer face to face? The same course runs at venues across the UK, or we can come to your premises.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

Is this a self-study online course?
No — and that is deliberate. PAT testing is a practical skill and we do not think self-study does it justice. This is a full tutor-led day, live over Zoom, with the practical elements included.
Do I need my own PAT tester?
Yes. The course is hands-on, so you need a tester with you to follow the practical demonstrations. If you do not have one, add the Martindale HPAT550 or the full kit when you book and it ships before your course date.
What equipment do I need to join?
Your own PAT tester, a laptop, PC or tablet with a camera and microphone, a reliable internet connection, and access to a printer. Basic English and maths, and one free day — that is it.
Do I need to be an electrician?
No. You need training and to be assessed as competent, which is exactly what this course does. It is designed for people with little or no electrical experience.
Will I get a certificate?
Yes — all successful learners receive a UKRS-accredited Certificate of Competence, exactly the same as our in-person courses. It follows within 7 to 10 days.
Is the Zoom course as good as attending in person?
It is the same syllabus, the same tutor and the same certificate. What you give up is our kit and our room; what you gain is no travel and no day away. If you would rather be in a room with the equipment, book a venue course instead.
