Gareth- 
I worked on a PAT testing project some time ago - it was for the MEB (Midland Electricity Board), and was tightly integrated into their testing technology - they were using SmartPat 5000's... 
I'd be interested in taking a look at your project - 

I'll try have have a look at it this afternoon.
