... 1. Compare hardware testing (final) to software testing. 2. For a given product, the test specification for a given input device is a maximum leakage of 3.0mA when 2.5V. This is tested by forcing a given voltage and measuring the resultant current. The tester to be used has the following accuracy: f ...

Portable appliance testing
Portable appliance testing (commonly known as ""PAT"", ""PAT Inspection"" or ""PAT Testing"") is the name of a process in the United Kingdom, the Republic of Ireland, New Zealand and Australia by which electrical appliances are routinely checked for safety. The correct term for the whole process is ""in-service inspection & testing of electrical equipment"".Similar procedures exist in other countries, for example, testing of equipment according to DGUV Vorschrift 3 in Germany.Health and safety regulations require that electrical appliances are safe and maintained to prevent harm to workers. Many equipment manufacturers recommend testing at regular intervals to ensure continual safety; the interval between tests depending on both the type of appliance and the environment in which it is to be used. The European Low Voltage Directive governs the manufacture or importation of electrical appliances. Compliance to this has to be declared and indicated by the display of the CE mark on the product. The responsibility for this lies with the manufacturer or the importer and is policed by Trading Standards.Testing equipment has been specifically developed for PAT inspections, based on the testing equipment used by manufacturers to ensure compliance with the British Standard Code of Practice and European product standards relevant to that type of appliance. This in turn allows testing and the interpretation of results to be de-skilled to a large extent. The inspection of the appliances can largely be carried out in-house in many organisations. This can result in cost savings and more flexibility as to exactly when a PAT is carried out.
