Keeping electrical safety in check

Keeping electrical safety in check

Wolfson College here we come!

11th August 2022

We’re delighted to be heading to Wolfson College in Cambridge next week to undertake their annual PAT testing. It’s a large, complex project so we’ve invested considerable time in the planning phase to ensure it runs smoothly.

Despite the work being carried out over the summer break, we’ve put together a full programme of works for all areas. This allows us to ensure that any students in residence will have been informed as to when we we’ll need access to their rooms and blocks. We’ve also liaised with the administration staff to explain when we’ll need to be testing the appliances within their offices.

For Mark Smith, owner of MS Electrical Services, PAT testing within the Cambridge colleges is a pleasure. ‘We love working with our Cambridge University clients to help to keep their students and staff safe,’ comments Mark. ‘As you can imagine, colleges such as Wolfson are steeped in history and as such are a great environment to work in. It’s also fantastic for us to know that we’re doing our bit to ensure that all the appliances within the college and their associated buildings are fully PAT tested for the year ahead.’

MS Electrical offer PAT testing in Cambridge, so please contact us to request a no-obligation quotation.

Testimonials

MS Electrical Services attended the hotel to do the five yearly fixed wire testing, all done without any fuss, quickly and completed very thoroughly. We were able to pass on any remedial work to our electrician and MS Electrical were able to liaise with him on anything he was not sure about. Thoroughly recommend MS Electrical Services for fixed wire testing if you require a competitive price, thorough work and a no fuss attitude.
