[QUOTE="macca22, post: 491745, member: 32287"] Hi, I'm about to start training on pat testing, and I have already got a good fairly understanding behind it all but the one thing that has always confused me is when it says the appliance must be switched on. If the appliance has no switch, and it is a touch/tactile/soft press switch, then is the appliance already on, as would be in standby so to speak, or is that not classed as on for the test and if so, how would you test this item? I'm talking about a TV for example, which has a "joystick" underneath the tv, but is in standby whe you turn it on at the wall. [/QUOTE]
