I dont think think there is anything wrong with the pc's they always pull more on startup, his machine is probably not set to the right fields. As an "in house" pat tester does he do this all the time or just a couple of days per year?

Yes, I'm wondering whether the machine's set right, he does PAT testing all year round, we have around 400 computers plus various other equipment over several sites. He's done the training course but says the machine is set at what it's set at and he's inherited it from the previous guy (who's now in Aus). We also have several other electricians but the ones I've spoken to haven't trained in PAT testing so don't know how his machine works. I've intimated I don't think the machines are faulty and he's agreed to have another look at the situation on Monday, meanwhile 4 staff can't use their PCs

Do you know what make and model of tester it is?
Personally i use one with 5 buttons and a switch on it so I wouldn't be much help, but maybe someone else could.
