When searching for a suitable mobile disco, you'll probably notice that many (but not all) companies will make reference to their equipment being 'PAT tested'.
Portable Appliance (or PAT) testing is a requirement that all mobile disco companies should adhere to, by law. It involves the testing of all electrical equipment to be used at your event that requires a mains supply. It's generally carried out every year and it ensures that all appliances are electrically safe to use.
As mentioned, it is a legal requirement for the DJ to have their equipment tested. This is to comply with the The Electricity at Work Act 1989.
PAT tested equipment is also needed to satisfy the requirements of the DJ's insurance company (assuming the DJ is insured!)
We all know that getting married (or organising a major celebration) can be an expensive (and sometimes stressful) time.
Booking a DJ without PLI could prove to be a very expensive mistake.
The risks of booking a DJ without Public Liability Insurance -
Many hotels, corporate and large venues insist DJs are fully insured. If your DJ arrives to set-up on your big day and is unable to produce evidence of insurance, they may be refused entry. You can obviously imagine what a disaster that would be!
