The 16th Edition of the IEE Wiring Regulations defines a
portable appliance as an electrical
appliance that can be moved while it
is connected or can be moved to use elsewhere.
Therefore portable appliances are to be considered to be those that are
supplied with electricity
by connection of a socket outlet.
All 240/110v mains powered portable appliance equipment are too be tested such as:
Kettles
Toasters
Refrigerators
Washing Machines
Sandwich makers
Desk Lamps
Hair dryers
Vacuum cleaners
Televisions
IT Equipment
IEC Leads
Printers
Plus many more
Note: Hard wired equipment may sometimes be tested, depending on ease of isolation from the mains supply, it would then be disconnected from the electrical outlet. Testing should take place with a (safe - bloc) wire to plug adapter. There is an additional cost for testing this type of equipment.
