Chatting with a mate of mine this afternoon, & the subject got on to PAT tests. A client of his, had had all their office equipment PAT tested, or so they thought.

Apparently the "tester" was only there for half an hour, was in their server room for 5 minutes & didn't unplug anything. All their equipment now has pass stickers on it!!

How the Hell do these people get away with it?????

Very true.... It was just an explanation in case others (who might not know) didnt see it that way... prob being over cautious... :D

In fairness we did have a kind of "conveyor belt" going on with Lee passing the items too me & putting the labels on after the test. I wouldn't have got half as many done without him.
