Maintenance Service Contracts…
The law requires electrical equipment to be maintained to
prevent danger.
The type and frequency of user checks, inspections and
testing needed will depend on the equipment, the
environment in which it is used and the results of previous
checks.
Electrical equipment should be visually checked to spot
early signs of damage or deterioration. Equipment should
be more thoroughly tested by a competent person often
enough that there is little chance the equipment will
become dangerous between tests. Equipment used in a
harsh environment should be tested more frequently than
equipment that is less likely to become damaged or
unsafe.
Knight Electrical is able to provide a full service level
agreements. The level of the service can vary from small
PAT testing to fully comprehensive Electrical Testing, PAT
Testing, Generator testing and servicing as well as
looking after your Security and Fire Alarm Systems.
We would be more than happy to tailor any contract to
guarantee full compliance with the current regulations and
legislations.
Equipment should be thoroughly tested at regular
intervals by a competent person to reduce the chance of
the equipment becoming dangerous between tests.

Load Bank Equipment…
A load bank is a device which develops an electrical
load, applies the load to an electrical power source
and converts or dissipates the resultant power output
of the source.
A resistive load bank, provides equivalent loading for
both generators and prime movers. That is, for
each kilowatt (or horsepower) of load applied to the
generator by the load bank, an equal amount of load
is applied to the prime mover by the generator. A
resistive load bank, therefore, removes energy from
the complete system
