How Our Test and Tag Service Works in Hobart

Our Hobart test and tag service starts with a visual inspection of electrical equipment, followed by electrical testing using suitable equipment such as a Portable Appliance Tester. This helps identify faults that may create electrical safety risks in the workplace.

Each item is then tagged with the relevant test details, and the results are recorded in the service documentation. If an item fails testing, it is clearly identified so the business can take the appropriate next step.

We also provide related electrical safety services, including RCD testing, to help Hobart workplaces manage ongoing electrical safety requirements.

Is Electrical Test and Tagging a Requirement in Hobart?

Testing and tagging requirements depend on the workplace, the electrical equipment being used, how the equipment is used and the level of risk. AS/NZS 3760:2022 provides guidance for the inspection and testing of in-service electrical equipment, but the exact testing requirements and intervals can vary between workplace environments.

For Hobart businesses, the important point is to make sure electrical equipment is inspected and tested at intervals appropriate to the workplace and equipment. Higher-risk environments may require more frequent testing than lower-risk settings.

Our Hobart technicians can inspect electrical equipment, complete the required testing and provide service documentation to help businesses manage their ongoing electrical safety requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions

Testing frequency depends on the workplace, equipment type, how the equipment is used and the level of risk. Higher-risk environments may require more frequent inspection and testing than lower-risk workplaces. The appropriate testing schedule should be based on the requirements that apply to the workplace and equipment.

For ensuring that electrical appliances function properly and come with no danger to the our lives, it is important to have all of them tested and tagged every 6 months.
It will depend on how old your house or workplace is and the number of appliances and equipment present in it. Usually most electricians will suggest checking your electrics every 3-5 years but you must test the GFCI outlets two times in a year at least at your home or office by pushing the button of test or reset.

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.

Emergency Exit Light Testing

Emergency exit light testing verifies the functionality of crucial evacuation lighting systems. These lights guide occupants to safety during emergencies, such as fires or power outages. It ensures that exit routes remain clearly illuminated, facilitating safe evacuation. Testing involves inspecting and testing emergency lights to confirm they illuminate adequately and remain operational. Compliance with relevant safety standards, such as AS/NZS 2293.2:2019, is essential to ensure the effectiveness of emergency exit light systems.

Fire Blanket Testing

Fire blanket testing ensures the reliability of critical safety devices designed to extinguish small fires or smother flames on a person's clothing. Proper testing confirms that fire blankets deploy effectively and can withstand the heat of a fire without damage, ensuring their readiness in case of emergency. Conducted by trained professionals, testing typically involves visual inspections and integrity assessments, adhering to relevant safety standards to uphold effectiveness and compliance.

Microwave Leakage Testing

Microwave leakage testing ensures the safety of microwave ovens by detecting and measuring any radiation leaks. This crucial safety measure helps prevent potential harm to users and ensures compliance with safety regulations. Conducted using specialised equipment, testing involves assessing microwave emissions to verify they are within safe limits. Regular testing by professionals helps mitigate risks associated with microwave radiation exposure, promoting a safer environment for users.
