New records software for manual PAT testers
Seaward has extended its range of portable appliance testing (PAT) record keeping programs with the introduction of a new manual data entry product.
Available with a free 90 day evaluation offer, the new PATGuard Elements program has been specifically designed for use with manual PAT testers that do not incorporate an internal memory for the storage of test results.
As a result the new software enables test results taken with manual PAT testers to be incorporated into a formal PC-based record keeping system.
The program is intended for use by organisations that perform electrical safety testing and maintain their own records but who require a simplified database system.
This is in keeping with the HSE Memorandum of Guidance on the Electricity At Work Regulations 1898 which advises records of maintenance including test results should be kept throughout the life of the equipment.
