At TropicAir Electricial, we carry out
portable appliance testing and
residual current device testing. Learn more about both types of thermal imaging below.
Portable appliance testing (PAT) involves the use of specialised equipment to check for electrical faults or signs of damage on items such as kettles, toasters and other small appliances. Also known as test and tag, this helps ensure potential hazards rectified before they cause harm or damage. By conducting regular PAT checks, you can ensure the safety of your home’s occupants and also identify any sources of wasted electricity.
Residual current device (RCD) testing is designed to protect against electric shocks, overloads, surges and faults from wiring, switchboards and electrical equipment. RCD testing monitors the current flowing through electrical circuits throughout your home—ensuring they are properly protected by circuit breakers and allowing them to be quickly switched off in an emergency.
