Setup - Asset Groups
Pre-defined Asset Groups
In the UK, the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) and the Institute of Engineering and Technology (IET,
formerly the IEE) define re-test periods in their documentation. These re-test periods are defined in terms of
the
Type of Premises where the Assets are located, the type of equipment, type of test (visual or full test)
and the class of the equipment (class I or class II).
PATGuard 3 contains a set of pre-defined Asset Groups based on this guidance. Other Asset groups which
are not premise dependent can be
added to Undefined (e.g. Imported Asset Groups or equivalent from
another database will be in Undefined).
Type of Premises
PATGuard 3 contains a list of Premises Types, each containing a number of
pre-defined Asset Groups .
These Asset Groups can be accessed by selecting the Premises Type from the Type of Premises drop-
down box.
