PAT test labels on all appliances (kettles, heaters, hairdriers) in all rooms in hotel I stayed in March 2012 state 'tested June 2010 next test due June 2011' All paper work show due June 2011. Manager says done every 2 years & 'that's what trip switches are for'. Who do I contact to ensure safety of other guests? Thank you

First try to understand the legislation check out http://www.pat-testing.info/legal.htm. PAT is required by The Electricity at Work Regulations 1989 and failure to comply is a breach of the Consumers Protection Act 1987 so I would suggest you contact the local Trading Standards who should be able to assist you.
