PAT Test Stickers

PAT Test Stickers and Labels

PAT Test Stickers provide a simple way to display an appliance’s recorded testing status. Also known as PAT test labels, they help users and maintenance teams identify equipment, check test information and match appliances to their records.

Explore PAT Test Stickers and labels at Acutest Direct, including write-and-seal labels and part-laminated pass labels. Choose a format with enough space for your test details and suitable protection for the conditions in which the appliance is used.

Choosing Your PAT Test Stickers

Write-and-Seal PAT Test Labels

Write-and-seal labels allow you to enter the relevant details by hand before covering them with a protective laminate. This helps protect the completed information from everyday handling and keeps the label readable.

Part-Laminated Pass Labels

Pass labels clearly identify a recorded pass result and provide space for the associated test details. A clear protective layer covers the completed writing, helping preserve the information after application.

Personalised PAT Test Stickers

Customised labels can combine your testing information with company branding and appliance identification. Ask our team about options such as your logo, preferred layout, sequential numbering, barcodes or QR codes.

Size, Surface and Working Environment

Choose a label that fits the appliance while keeping the information easy to read. Consider the surface material and any exposure to moisture, cleaning products, sunlight or abrasion when selecting the label and adhesive.

What Information Should PAT Test Labels Show?

The details on your labels should support your testing and record-keeping process. Depending on the label format, useful information includes:

• Test result: A clear indication of the recorded pass or fail outcome.
• Test date: The date the appliance was tested.
• Appliance reference: An asset number or unique identifier that links the item to its records.
• Tester details: The name or initials of the person who carried out the test.
• Scheduled retest date: Where included in your organisation’s maintenance plan.
• Barcode or QR code: Where used to identify the appliance or access associated information.

Keep the layout clear and avoid overcrowding the label. Detailed inspection notes and results can be held in the corresponding appliance record.

Where Should You Place PAT Test Stickers?

Apply PAT Test Stickers in a visible, accessible position on a clean, dry surface suitable for the adhesive. A consistent position on similar appliances makes labels easier to find during future checks.

• Choose a flat area where the label can adhere securely.
• Keep warning notices, manufacturer details and safety instructions visible.
• Avoid covering controls, ventilation openings or moving parts.
• Keep barcodes and QR codes accessible for scanning.
• Avoid positions exposed to excessive heat, moisture or repeated abrasion.
