A certificate worth handing over
Version 1.8 rebuilt the PAT test certificate from scratch, brought the test limits up to the IET Code of Practice 5th Edition, and added a client book that builds itself out of the jobs already on your device.
The 1.8 certificate – summary at the top, register over the page.
The certificate
Redesigned, and built to print
True print quality. A tested, passed and failed summary at the top of the front page. Over 40 appliances to a page, so large registers stay a document rather than a ream. Failed items print on a dedicated photo evidence page with the picture you took. Asset Record exports use the same design.
Clients
A client book that builds itself
A new Clients tab on the Dashboard, assembled automatically from the jobs already on your device. Every job for a client in one place, notes against the client, and a reminder before their retests fall due. Tap the reminder and the app opens that client.
Accuracy
IET Code of Practice, 5th Edition
Test limits updated to the 5th Edition, including Class II FE. RCD testing can now be recorded. The printed label shows the recorded result. Printing a retest date on the label is now a setting, off by default in line with the Code, and calendar reminders use the interval you actually recorded.
Instruments
Pick your tester, do not type it
Choose your test instrument straight from Verifi on the Contractor Details screen. Make, model and serial number fill themselves in, with the calibration record sitting behind them. Verifi is a free download.

Built in Barcode Scanner
Auto-fills appliance data
Appliance Passport turns PAT Test Pro from a certificate generator into a complete PAT testing management tool. Instead of digging through old paperwork or spreadsheets, you have a full, searchable audit trail for every item you look after — proof of testing on demand for clients, landlords, insurers and HSE compliance.
That history is where the business value is: win repeat retest work by seeing exactly what's due and when, quote faster using saved defect findings, settle client queries with dated evidence and photos, and demonstrate compliance without leaving the app. It's the appliance-register and test-history layer that most PAT testing software makes you pay extra for — built into the same on-device workflow.
AI appliance scans now keep their full visual inspection. Every defect found, its severity and the reasoning is saved with the test itself — ideal evidence for failed items, faster remedial quotes and instant answers to client queries, all held in the appliance's PAT testing history.

PAT Testing Risk Assessment Calculator
Answer 5 quick questions to get a recommended inspection and testing interval based on IET and HSE guidance.
What type of equipment?
What environment is the equipment used in?
How frequently is the equipment used?
Who uses the equipment?
What do previous test results show?
Visual inspection recommended every 3 months. Regular visual checks between formal tests catch cable damage, cracked plugs, and other faults early.
Note: This calculator provides guidance based on the IET Code of Practice 5th Edition and HSE recommendations. It is intended as a starting point for your risk assessment, not a substitute for professional judgement. The duty holder is responsible for determining appropriate inspection and testing intervals. Always document your risk assessment and the reasoning behind your chosen intervals.
PAT Test Pro includes built-in retest scheduling with calendar reminders, so you never miss a due date. AI appliance scanning identifies and classifies equipment automatically.

What is PAT testing and why use a PAT testing app?
Portable Appliance Testing (PAT) is the routine inspection and testing of electrical appliances to confirm they are safe for continued use. It covers visual checks, earth continuity, insulation resistance, and functional testing. Under the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 and the Electricity at Work Regulations 1989, duty holders — including employers, landlords, and venue managers — must ensure that electrical equipment is maintained in a safe condition. PAT testing is the recognised method of meeting that obligation.
A PAT testing app replaces paper-based record keeping and desktop software with a mobile workflow that runs entirely on your phone or tablet. Instead of writing results on forms and transferring them to a computer later, a PAT testing app lets you record test results, generate certificates, print QR labels and share reports with clients — all from the job site, with no office step required.
PAT Test Pro vs traditional PAT testing software
Most PAT testing software on the market was designed as a companion to a specific manufacturer's hardware. Seaward's PATMobile works best with their PrimeTest range. Kewtech's KEWPAT is built around the SMARTPAT tester. These apps are primarily data loggers — they record results from their own hardware and export reports.
PAT Test Pro takes a fundamentally different approach. It is a standalone PAT testing app that works with any PAT tester from any manufacturer — Megger, Seaward, Kewtech, Metrel, Martindale or any other brand. There is no hardware lock-in. PAT Test Pro also includes AI appliance scanning via Appliance Vision, automatic cloud sync across all Apple devices, built-in barcode scanning, QR code label generation, retest scheduling, and professional branded PDF certificates — features that go well beyond basic data logging.
For electricians and PAT testers who want a complete mobile PAT testing workflow without being tied to a single manufacturer, PAT Test Pro is the most advanced PAT testing app available on iPhone, iPad and Mac.
Who needs to carry out PAT testing?
Any organisation or individual responsible for electrical equipment used by employees, tenants, customers or the public should carry out PAT testing. This includes offices, schools, universities, hospitals, hotels, restaurants, retail premises, construction sites, landlords with furnished rental properties, churches, community centres, and events venues. Self-employed tradespeople working on client premises also need to ensure their own portable tools and equipment are tested and safe.
The IET Code of Practice for In-Service Inspection and Testing of Electrical Equipment (5th Edition) provides guidance on testing frequencies based on the type of equipment, the environment, and the risk level. A PAT testing app like PAT Test Pro helps manage retest schedules with built-in calendar reminders so nothing is missed.
