Test & Tag FAQs
What is “Test and Tag”?
Test and tag is the process of inspecting and electrically testing portable appliances to ensure they are safe to use. Each item is then tagged with the test date and the next due date to help maintain compliance.
How often should I test and tag my equipment?
Testing frequency depends on the environment and equipment type:
- Construction sites: Every 3 months
- Workshops & factories: Every 6 months
- Office equipment: Every 12 months to 5 years, based on risk and usage
Who needs to comply with test and tag regulations?
Any business or workplace that uses portable electrical equipment should comply, including offices, schools, retail, construction sites, and healthcare facilities.
What standard do your services comply with?
Our testing is performed according to AS/NZS 3760:2022, which outlines procedures and intervals for testing and tagging electrical appliances in the workplace.
Do you provide documentation?
Yes. After testing, we provide a detailed compliance report that includes results, item tags, and retest reminders.
What is RCD testing, and do I need it?
RCD (Residual Current Device) testing ensures safety switches activate correctly during a fault. If your workplace has RCDs installed, regular testing is required to meet WHS compliance and prevent electrical injuries or fires.
