There are many myths about Portable Appliance Testing, the main one being that one must test every year. In an office environment, for example, there should be some form of inspection and/or testing every two years BUT this may be decreased to three or even four years dependent upon the previous test history. If the history shows that the incidence of failures and remedials is non-existent after two years, the frequency of retest may be reduced to three years and so on.
