Discuss Segment timer switch in the Electrical Testing & PAT Testing Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net

Yes, a segment timer switch should undergo PAT (Portable Appliance Testing) because it is an electrical accessory. Although it may not be an appliance itself, it connects to electrical equipment, which makes it part of the overall safety chain. PAT testing ensures that the timer is safe to use, especially when connected to Class 1 appliances that require earth continuity checks. Regular testing can help identify any faults or wear that could pose safety risks, ensuring the protection of users and maintaining compliance with safety regulations.

That is very noble of you, what sort of electrician are you?
I am mostly industrial control systems but still keep my hand in the installation scene every now and then.
