Legal Requirements in Gateshead (England)

Properties in Gateshead (Tyne and Wear, England) fall under English law. The main rules are:

No law requires annual PAT testing. The Electricity at Work Regulations 1989 require employers to maintain electrical equipment so as to prevent danger, but HSE says the law does not state what must be done or how often, calls annual testing of all equipment in low-risk workplaces a myth, and recommends a risk-based approach (its INDG236 leaflet gives suggested intervals). For rented homes, the England electrical safety regulations cover the fixed installation only for private landlords; since 1 November 2025 social landlords (not private landlords) must also have electrical equipment they supply checked at least every 5 years.

Legislation: Electricity at Work Regulations 1989; Electrical Safety Standards in the Private Rented Sector and Social Rented Sector (England) Regulations 2020, Part 2A (social landlords only). Official source: hse.gov.uk
