Our Electrical Test and Tagging In Sydney Process
Visual Inspection
Our team starts by visually inspecting each device, checking for visible damage, loose wires, cracked insulation, and other signs of wear that could pose a safety risk.
Electrical Testing
Using advanced testing equipment, we test each appliance for electrical faults, including earth continuity, insulation resistance, and polarity checks, to verify that it is safe for continued use.
Tagging and Documentation
After passing all tests, each appliance is tagged with a durable label showing the test date, next testing due date, and a unique identifier. We provide a detailed compliance report documenting each appliance’s status and compliance with AS/NZS 3760.
Retesting Scheduling
We schedule retests based on the environment and type of equipment, ensuring compliance with workplace safety requirements and minimizing the risk of equipment failure.
