Portable Appliance Test (PAT) Guidelines
What is PAT?
The Portable Appliance Test is a set of tests that must be administered
to electrical equipment in the UK and some locations in Europe to
ensure safety.
The tests are typically carried out using a small PAT device. The PAT
device connects to a power source and then attaches to the product
via an electrical outlet and test probes. The PAT provides a simple pass
or fail result, allowing rapid testing of large inventories.
The following guidelines provide instructions for applying the PAT to
the CE Source Four jr/Zoom.
Testing New Luminaires
CE Source Four jr/Zoom luminaires now include a specific PAT point
where the test clip is attached, as shown in the figure below. The PAT
test is comprised of two tests: the ground test and the insulation test.
Ground Test
The ground test indicates the safety of the ground connection to the
burner unit and reflector-housing parts. The connection could become
live if the insulation failed. It is not necessary to test continuity to
either the lens tube or the yoke, as these are separated by metallic
shields.
