Why Regular Test and Tagging Matters
Regular testing and tagging of electrical appliances, including portable appliance testing, is essential in maintaining workplace safety, ensuring legal compliance, and reducing the risk of electrical hazards. Faulty electrical equipment can cause fires, electrocution, and serious accidents, which not only endanger staff and visitors but can also lead to substantial operational disruptions or liabilities.
Failing to conduct routine inspections increases the likelihood of faulty or damaged equipment going unnoticed, exposing employees, customers, or family members to risks such as electrical shocks or fires. Moreover, without accurate and regular testing records, your business or workplace could face significant fines or insurance challenges in the event of an incident. It is crucial to have electrical appliances tested and tagged to ensure compliance and minimise risks.
Routine Test and Tagging not only enhances workplace safety but helps you identify equipment issues early, allowing timely repairs or replacements, potentially saving you substantial repair or replacement costs down the line.

Who Should Consider Regular Test and Tag Services?
If your workplace uses any type of portable electrical equipment—whether in a commercial, industrial, or residential setting—regular Test and Tag is highly recommended.
Offices frequently benefit from testing computers, printers, powerboards, kettles, and microwaves, while construction sites and industrial settings require regular inspections of tools, extension cords, heavy equipment, and electronic equipment due to their intensive usage and increased wear.
Retail stores and hospitality venues also depend heavily on electrical appliances. Regular inspections can prevent unexpected outages, ensuring uninterrupted service and a safer environment for staff and customers alike.

How Often Should You Have Your Equipment Tested?
Common Mistakes with Test and Tagging (And How to Avoid Them)
Using Unqualified Personnel
Attempting to save money by using untrained staff or performing DIY testing can lead to improper assessments and mislabelled equipment. This approach not only breaches compliance standards (AS/NZS 3760) but places your workplace at risk of electrical accidents or fines.
How to Avoid: Always engage qualified, licensed electricians or certified technicians to conduct Test and Tag services.
Not Keeping Accurate Records
Without proper documentation, it’s difficult to prove your compliance during inspections or audits. Poor record-keeping can lead to costly fines, increased insurance premiums, or even liability in the event of an electrical accident.
How to Avoid: Ensure your provider supplies detailed records of all inspections, clearly showing test dates, results, and retesting intervals.
Infrequent Testing
Waiting too long between tests increases the risk of equipment failure and safety hazards. Each workplace environment has specific recommended intervals—ignoring these recommendations places your people and property at risk.
How to Avoid: Stick to a regular testing schedule tailored to your industry’s requirements, with reminders for upcoming testing dates.
Overlooking Damaged Equipment Between Inspections
Assuming that scheduled Test and Tag intervals are sufficient, some businesses ignore visible signs of wear, such as frayed cords or broken casings. This oversight can lead to hazardous situations despite regular inspections.
How to Avoid: Conduct visual checks regularly, and promptly have damaged equipment tested or replaced rather than waiting for scheduled tests.
