All equipment will have to be inspected and PAT'd as H&S applies to to all
Work, even if the Workplace is in someone's house.

PAT machines aren't expensive and it's a useful extra service to be able to
offer especially if there is a lot of private rented housing, do the PAT and
work your way in for some wiring jobs and vice versa.
