How Our Test and Tag Process Works
Every item is tested to AS/NZS 3760:2022 in four steps:
- Visual inspection: each item is checked for damaged cords, plugs and casings. Anything visibly unsafe is removed from service straight away.
- Electrical testing: items that pass inspection are tested with a calibrated portable appliance tester for earth continuity, insulation resistance and polarity.
- Tagging: every passed item gets a dated tag showing when it was tested and when it's next due. Failed items are tagged out of service.
- Reporting: you receive a digital report listing every item, its location and result, plus your Certificate of Compliance.

Is Test and Tag Compulsory in Victoria?
Victorian employers have a duty under the Occupational Health and Safety Act 2004 to provide and maintain safe plant and equipment. For plug in electrical equipment, testing and tagging to AS/NZS 3760:2022 is the accepted way to show you've met that duty. Construction and demolition sites also follow AS/NZS 3012, which sets stricter testing requirements for equipment used on site.
If WorkSafe Victoria or your insurer asks for evidence, your compliance report and certificate are what you'll need. Call 13 11 05 or request a quote below and we'll help you set up the right testing schedule for your Dandenong site.

Our Services
Portable Appliance Testing
Portable appliance testing, ensures the safety of movable electrical devices. It involves two steps: visual inspection and electrical testing with a Portable Appliance Tester (PAT). This electronic test determines if the appliance is safe, providing a pass or fail result. It safeguards workplace individuals from electrical hazards like fires and shocks, promoting device longevity.
Safety Switch (RCD) Testing
RCD testing, also known as Residual Current Device testing, verifies the functionality of safety devices in electrical circuits. This involves testing the Residual Current Device (RCD) to ensure it effectively detects and responds to electrical faults, such as leakage currents. RCD testing helps prevent electric shocks and reduces the risk of electrical accidents.
Fire Extinguisher Testing
Fire extinguisher testing ensures the effectiveness of this vital firefighting tool. Merely having a fire extinguisher is insufficient; it must be in proper working condition. A malfunctioning extinguisher during an emergency can escalate a manageable fire into a dangerous situation. Conducted by professionals, testing includes visual inspections and integrity tests, documented in detailed reports.
