What is a Written Scheme of Examination (WSE)?
A Written Scheme of Examination (WSE) is a key document required under PSSR. It outlines:
-
The specific parts of the system to be examined
-
How often the system must be inspected
-
Which protective devices need to be tested
-
The procedures for maintaining safe operation
No pressure system in Medway should be used without a current WSE in place. Our team can create or review your Written Scheme of Examination during your inspection to ensure full compliance.
