Ensure Workplace Safety
Test and tag isn’t just a box to tick, it’s a critical part of your workplace safety system. We inspect for damaged wiring, insulation faults and unsafe plug connections using calibrated testing tools, then apply clearly marked tags with the test date and retest schedule. This helps prevent electric shocks, fires and equipment failures that can result in injury or costly downtime.
We work with businesses of all sizes across Wagga Wagga to provide flexible scheduling, minimal disruption and honest pricing. Whether you need a once-off service or regular visits, we tailor our test and tag support to suit your industry requirements and your worksite.
FAQs
How often should test and tag be done in the workplace?
The required frequency for test and tag depends on the type of environment and risk level. For example:
- Construction sites: Every three months
- Factories & workshops: Every six months
- Offices and low-risk environments: Every 12 months
- Hostile environments (e.g. outdoor, wet, dusty): Every six months
Employers are responsible for ensuring all electrical equipment is tested and tagged according to its risk classification.
Who can legally perform test and tag services?
Test and tag services must be carried out by a competent person, which means someone who has completed a recognised training course in test and tag procedures and understands how to use a portable appliance tester. In many workplaces, this will be a licensed electrician, but it can also be a trained staff member if they meet competency standards. However, only licensed electricians can repair failed items or perform other electrical work.
What happens if an appliance fails a test and tag inspection?
If an appliance fails inspection, it must be removed from service immediately and clearly labelled as "Failed". The issue may be due to damaged cords, exposed wiring, failed insulation resistance or other faults. Some failures can be repaired by a licensed electrician, while others may require full replacement of the item. Once repaired, the appliance must be re-tested and passed before it can be safely used again.
