What Is Electrical Testing?
Electrical testing is the process of verifying the safety and functionality of electrical appliances and equipment. Not only does it help identify potential faults, but it also prevents hazards such as electrical fires, shocks, and equipment failures. By implementing a regular testing and tagging schedule, you can significantly reduce workplace risks while ensuring compliance with Australian electrical safety standards.
Moreover, governments around the world—and particularly in Australia—require businesses to carry out periodic safety inspections on all electrical appliances. These mandatory checks are essential for maintaining compliance with Work Health and Safety (WHS) regulations and for reducing the likelihood of equipment-related incidents. In short, regular electrical testing is a proactive step toward a safer, legally compliant workplace.
Why Is Test and Tag Important?
Because electricity can pose serious risks, electrical equipment should be tested before use and at scheduled intervals thereafter. Manufacturers often recommend the frequency based on the nature of the device and its working environment. Regular inspections detect issues like- 
Insulation failure
Earthing faults
Current leakage
Polarity issues
Testing also identifies appliances that may have been damaged by moisture, dust, heat, or wear and tear over time.
Retest intervals/ Timeframes – Table 4 of AS/NZS 3760:2010
Our Electrical Testing Process
We conduct both visual inspections and comprehensive electrical testing, which includes:
Earth continuity/resistance
Insulation resistance
Polarity testing
Current leakage
After testing, each item is clearly labeled with a barcoded tag that shows:
The test date
The technician’s name
The next scheduled test date
You’ll also receive a clear, easy-to-understand report outlining the test results along with reminders for future retesting.
