The Kettle That Took Down a Building! (Failed PAT Test Short)
29@retro_restorations In the linked video, I investigate a seemingly harmless kettle that was tripping the power in an accommodation block. A friend brought it to me, knowing I have a Portable Appliance Testing (PAT) qualification. While conducting a visual inspection, I found an issue—but that alone didn’t confirm the fault. I proceeded with a full PAT test, and the kettle ultimately failed its insulation resistance test. This video highlights the importance of combining visual checks with proper electrical testing to ensure appliance safety.
