PLASA Show 2022: Data Strategy highlights QC-Check
- Details
Embedded as part of the warehouse process – with integration realised for most equipment hire software - Data Strategy’s QC-Check provides practical safety inspection solutions that allow hire companies and venues to simply fulfil statutory requirements (including PAT testing). Simply put, QC-Check ensures electrical appliances and equipment are always safe to use.
As a networked, multi-user application that controls Out Board’s PAT-4 (single or 3-phase in 16A, 32A & 125A ratings) to deliver PAT, CABLE and RCD testing required by UK & international electrical regulations, QC-Check systems are installed in major film studios; rental companies both large and small (PRG, Creative Technology, Adlib, White Light and Entec); various theatres including the Royal Opera House and the National Theatre, and recently, via Aggreko, into the Birmingham 2022 Commonwealth Games, where four units were in place to test all cables and power distribution systems ahead of the Games.
QC-Check’s PowerCheck add-on module tests the individual outputs of a distribution box. The PowerCheck RCD-t distribution box allows a single connection to a distro’s Socapex outputs, so each output is tested individually and PowerCheck captures the result for producing test certificates.
VeriCal is the hand-held, on-site alternative to off-site calibration. The add-on module ensures the Out Board PAT-4 testers – an integral part of the QC-Check system – are within their operational specifications to produce verified and accurate results. Saving both time and money, VeriCal is a vital part of a company’s pre-ISO-accreditation process, to ensure the QC-Check workstations are calibrated for accurate testing results.
QC-Check’s SimplyPATS integration was developed to allow QC-Check to import into its database the test results from other manufacturers’ Portable Appliance Testers, and SimplyPATS software specialises in providing the download of data from over 50 PAT Testers. The integration module provides users with the facility to use the powerful QC-Check database to selectively filter equipment requiring a test into manageable chunks of data and download it to the client testers.
