Barnsley
Barnsley, although there is a long tradition of glass-making, it is mainly known for its coal mines. In the 60’s Barnsley was booming with coal mines. There were 70 collieries within a 15-mile radius of the Barnsley town centre. These are obviously not around anymore, with the last one closing in 1994 being Goldthorpe Colliery. However, the National Union of Mineworkers still has its HQ in Barnsley.
Major companies operate in Barnsley such as online retailer ASOS, the largest cake bakery in Europe, Premier Foods who make the Mr Kipling Cake brand, Ardagh Glass who make glass bottles and Symphony Kitchens. Most of these businesses are based on the industrial parks which lie outside the town centre, many being on the sites of reclaimed coal mines.
Barnsley has two town twins. They are Horlivka in Ukraine and Schwäbisch Gmünd in Germany. Barnsley is home to the football club Barnsley F.C. and their home ground is the Oakwell Stadium which is also the name of the area it is in.
What is PAT testing?
PAT testing is where your electrical appliances get routinely tested for safety purposes. PAT testing makes sure that they do not pose an electric shock or electrical fire risk. It is made up of a series of smaller tests; a thorough visual inspection, earth bond and insulation resistance tests.
What kind of businesses need it?
Nearly all businesses should carry out PAT testing. The Electricity at Work Regulations say that the employer should maintain all electrical equipment to make sure it’s safe to use. They frequency that you carry out PAT testing can vary depending on the type of business & the overall risk. For example, construction sites should be tested more frequently than offices.PAT Testing in Barnsley - as easy as 1, 2, 3
