Product Information
Full details
This guide is for electricians and appliance repair technicians performing PAT testing. The Kewtech Pass Labels provide a clear, durable, and compliant method for indicating successful electrical safety tests on appliances, with the primary caveat being that they only signify a pass and do not record specific test details beyond user-written fields. These labels are essential for demonstrating compliance with the latest electrical safety standards, featuring space for critical information like appliance ID, test dates, and next due dates, all printed on robust vinyl.

FAQs
What does 'Edit 5 Code of Practice' refer to?
This refers to the latest version of the UK's Code of Practice for in-service inspection and testing of electrical equipment, outlining the standards and procedures for PAT testing.
Can I write on these labels with any pen?
It is recommended to use a permanent marker for best results. Ballpoint pens may not adhere well or could smudge easily. Testing the marker on a small area or a spare label is advisable.
How many labels are included in a pack?
Each pack contains 500 Kewtech Pass Labels.
What information must I write on the label?
The labels provide fields for Appliance ID, Site, Date of Test, and Next Test Due Date. It is crucial to fill these out accurately for compliance and record-keeping.
Are these labels suitable for outdoor equipment?
The durable vinyl construction offers good resistance to environmental factors, but prolonged exposure to harsh outdoor conditions may eventually affect adhesion or legibility. They are best suited for typical indoor or controlled environments.
What is the size of each label?
Each label measures 1 x 2 inches (approximately 25 x 51 mm).
Do these labels indicate if an appliance has failed the test?
No, these are 'Pass' labels. They are specifically designed to indicate that an appliance has successfully passed its electrical safety test. Separate 'Fail' labels would be used for appliances that do not pass.
Troubleshooting
Label not sticking securely
Ensure the appliance surface is clean, dry, and smooth before application. For textured surfaces, consider a small test patch or alternative labeling solutions if adhesion remains poor.
Ink smudging on the label
Use a permanent marker with good quality ink and allow sufficient drying time before handling the appliance. Avoid touching the written areas immediately after writing.
Label becoming illegible over time
The vinyl material is durable, but extreme conditions (e.g., constant abrasion, chemical exposure) can affect legibility. Ensure application is on a protected surface where possible and use a permanent marker.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Ensures clear visual confirmation of passed PAT tests.
- Durable vinyl material resists wear and tear.
- Includes all necessary fields for compliance and record-keeping.
- Meets the latest industry standards (Edit 5 Code of Practice).
- Conveniently sized for most appliances.
- High-count pack (500 labels) offers good value for frequent users.
Cons
- Labels only indicate a 'pass' and do not record specific test results or values.
- Requires manual writing of information, which can be time-consuming.
- May not be suitable for very small or unusually shaped appliances where space is limited.
- White color might show dirt more readily in extremely harsh environments compared to darker labels.
- Adhesive strength may vary on highly textured or dirty surfaces.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Ensure the surface of the appliance is clean, dry, and free from grease or dust. A clean surface ensures optimal adhesion.
- Peel a single label from the roll.
- Carefully apply the label to a prominent, visible location on the appliance.
- Using a permanent marker, clearly fill in the required fields: Appliance ID, Site, Date of Test, and Next Test Due Date.
Compatibility:
These labels are compatible with all types of electrical appliances that require PAT testing, including IT equipment, power tools, and office machinery. The 1 x 2-inch size is designed to fit most standard casings. They are intended for use on smooth, non-porous surfaces.
Care:
While the labels are durable, avoid excessive scraping or the use of harsh solvents directly on the label, as this could compromise the printed information or the vinyl material. Clean the appliance around the label with a damp cloth, avoiding direct saturation of the label itself.
