Electrical equipment should be routinely checked for electrical safety and performance. This ensures safe operation of the equipment and may identify deterioration in performance before a major breakdown may occur. We provide this service using test equipment specifically designed for medical equipment ensuring compliance with European legislation and British standards. i.e. BS EC60601. (get in touch)
It is now a legal requirement that a hospital department, government body, club or private practice to ensure that any electrical appliance is tested for electrical safety at least once a year. ie. any item with a plug.
Most manufacturers of electromedical equipment specify regular intervals for the checking and replacement of specific parts. We are familiar with these routine service procedures and our engineers have undergone training either in-house and or with major manufacturers.
