We use the latest technology, and our technicians are all well versed in the latest safety standards and protocols.

How Testing And Tagging And Retest Reminder Service Works

One of our skilled technicians or electricians will carry out a visual inspection of your electrical items before undertaking one or all of the following tests:

• Polarity
• Current leakage
• Insulation resistance
• Earth continuity/resistance

Following testing, we can provide you with an easy-to-read report outlining the work conducted and information on when your next service is due. We’ll also mark your items with bar-coded tags, containing test date, the tester’s name and when the next service is due. If there are minor issues with your electrical cords or plugs, we can often conduct on-the-spot repairs.

We also carry out a range of other electrical services to ensure you’re up to date with WHS standards, including safety switch (RCD) testing, construction site testing and tagging, thermal imaging and fire extinguisher inspection. Simply let us know what needs doing and we can schedule in reminders for you so you’ll always be safe and compliant. If you are unsure of what needs to be inspected and tested, and at what retest intervals, we can help you with that as well.

Why is electrical test and tag and Retest Reminder Service important?

Every business has an obligation to provide a safe workplace as far as reasonably practicable, and one area of concern is electrical safety. Under the new Fire and Emergency Australia and New Zealand Fire Safety Evacuation Procedures and Evacuation Schemes Regulations 2018, it is now mandatory.

Electrical testing of equipment is essential to ensure the health and safety of your employees and that of others who visit your workplace. Being aware of these hazards allows you to take action and ensure that no one person is at risk while using the equipment, Our Retest Reminder Service ensures that your equipment is always up to date with testing requirements, helping you stay compliant and safe.

Electrical equipment can get less reliable with age – just like everything else. Even though a device may have been safe a year ago, doesn’t mean it remains safe for use today. It’s important to make sure your equipment undergoes tagging and regular maintenance that will identify hazards as they arise. This way, one of our expert team members always follows safety regulations, always performs safety testing and can detect an issue before a tragedy occurs.
