Are wired appliances part of PAT testing?

One of the big myths surrounding PAT is that we only have to test items with a plug on.

The Electricity at Work Regulations 1989 covers all electrical 'Systems' at work and therefore the law does not differentiate between equipment with a plug and that which is wired directly to the supply.

Many companies still fail to include fixed equipment in their risk assessments and asset registers, leaving themselves wide open if something were to go wrong.
