Test and Tag
G'day from Down to the Wire! Keeping electrical safety at the forefront is what we're all about. The test and tag process is a critical service we offer, designed to inspect thoroughly and ensure the safety of portable electrical equipment. This involves a physical inspection and electrical testing to meet the stringent Australian standards, particularly AS/NZS 3760. Compliance with these legal requirements is not just about ticking boxes; it's about providing a safe environment for everyone. So, let's dive into how we can help you stay safe and compliant.
If you care about quality service at an incredible price - we can help.
24/7
We’re available
7AM - 4PM
Monday to Friday. We also offer out of hours services.
About Our Test and Tag Service
Why Test and Tag Electrical Equipment?
At Down to the Wire, we’re committed to ensuring safety and compliance in the workplace through our test and tag services. Here’s why it’s essential:
- Safety benefits for workplaces: We create a safer environment for all employees by identifying and rectifying potential electrical hazards.
- Compliance with health and safety regulations: Our services ensure your business meets Australian standards and regulations, avoiding penalties and enhancing your safety culture.
- Prevention of electrical accidents: Regular testing and tagging help prevent accidents caused by electrical faults, protecting people and property.
Stay safe and compliant with Down to the Wire.
Test and Tag Process
Homes
At Down to the Wire, bringing our test and tag expertise into homes across Australia is something we’re passionate about. While testing and tagging at home isn’t a legal requirement like it is in many workplaces, ensuring the electrical safety of your home appliances is paramount for the safety of your family and property. Here’s how we approach the test and tag process at home:
- Visual Inspection: Every test starts with a thorough visual check. We look for any signs of wear and tear, damaged cords, faulty plugs, and any other visible defects that might pose a risk.
- Electrical Testing: We perform several electrical tests using a Portable Appliance Tester (PAT). These tests include checking the earth continuity, insulation resistance, and the functionality of residual current devices (RCDs) to ensure they operate within safe parameters.
- Tagging: Appliances that pass the visual inspection and electrical testing are tagged with a durable, non-reusable tag. This tag indicates the test date and the next due date for testing, providing a clear record of the appliance’s safety status.
- Reporting: We compile a detailed report of all the appliances tested, including those that have passed and any that have failed. The report will also include recommendations for any failed items, whether they need repair, retesting, or replacement.
- Education: Part of our service includes educating homeowners on the importance of regular visual checks and what to look for, empowering you to identify potential hazards between professional tests and tag sessions.
While not mandatory, testing and tagging your home appliances can provide peace of mind, knowing that you’re taking proactive steps to prevent electrical accidents.
Commercial Settings
At Down to the Wire, our approach to testing and tagging in commercial settings is thorough, ensuring every appliance and electrical equipment meets Australia’s stringent safety standards. Here’s how we manage the process:
- Scheduling: We coordinate with your business to find a time that minimises disruption to your operations. Whether it’s during business hours or after, we’re flexible.
- Inventory Audit: The first step is a comprehensive inventory of all your electrical appliances. This helps us track what needs testing and tagging and ensures nothing is missed.
- Visual Inspection: Each item undergoes a visual check for any obvious signs of damage, such as frayed cords, damaged plugs, or any other wear that could pose a safety risk.
- Electrical Testing: We use state-of-the-art Portable Appliance Testers (PATs) to conduct electrical safety tests on each appliance. This includes earth continuity, insulation resistance, and polarity checks depending on the appliance type.
- RCD Testing: For environments where RCDs (Residual Current Devices) are used, we perform trip time and trip current tests to ensure they are functioning correctly and will protect against electrical shock.
- Tagging: Appliances that pass inspection and testing are fitted with a durable, weather-resistant tag that details the test date, the next due date, and the tester’s ID, complying with AS/NZS 3760 standards.
- Reporting: We provide a detailed report listing all tested items, their test results, and any failed items, along with recommendations for corrective actions such as repairs or replacements.
- Advisory Services: Beyond testing and tagging, we offer advice on electrical safety best practices and help develop a maintenance schedule to keep your workplace safe and compliant.
- Follow-Up: We remind you when it’s time for your next test and tag service, ensuring your business complies with Australian safety regulations.
At Down to the Wire, we’re committed to providing a test and tag service that ensures compliance with Australian standards and promotes a safe working environment for you and your employees.

We recently had Jarryd and Emerson on site at late notice when our other electrician was unavailable. We were doing a full home reno and the boys jumped straight in and completed everything we needed so not to hold up other trades.

Every time they were professional, on time & had great communication with bookings & changes to times. We're very happy customers and trust them with all our electrical work.

Home Theatre InstallationFrequently Asked Questions
What do you mean by test and tag?
Test and tag is a safety procedure where electrical appliances are inspected and tested for safety according to specific standards. It involves visually inspecting the appliance for any damage, testing it with specialised equipment to ensure it’s operating safely, and then tagging it to indicate it has passed the tests. This process helps to minimise electrical hazards in workplaces and is mandated by safety regulations in many countries, including Australia.
Is testing and tagging a legal requirement?
Yes, it’s a legal requirement for workplaces in Australia under various state and territory regulations. It ensures electrical safety and compliance with the Australian Standard AS/NZS 3760.
Do I need test and tag services for my home?
Test and tag services at home involve inspecting and testing all portable electrical appliances to ensure they are safe. This process can help identify potential electrical hazards, preventing accidents and ensuring the safety of household members. It’s especially relevant for households with many electrical devices, older appliances, or areas where electrical safety is a concern. While not mandatory for private homes as it is in commercial settings, it provides peace of mind regarding electrical safety.
What test and tag services do you offer for commercial establishments?
For commercial establishments, Down to the Wire offers comprehensive test and tag services that include:
-
Regular Testing and Tagging of all portable electrical equipment to ensure compliance with Australian standards.
-
Visual and Electrical Inspections to identify and mitigate potential hazards.
-
Documentation and Reporting for compliance records and future planning.
-
Custom Frequency Schedules tailored to the specific needs and risks of your business.
This proactive approach ensures not only the safety of your workplace but also compliance with health and safety regulations.
What appliances and equipment are covered in your test and tag services?
At Down to the Wire, we test and tag a broad range of electrical equipment to ensure safety and compliance, including:
-
Office Appliances: Computers, printers, and copiers.
-
Kitchen Appliances: Kettles, microwaves, and toasters.
-
Power Tools: Drills, saws, and electric sanders.
-
Heating and Cooling Devices: Portable heaters and fans.
We aim to ensure that every piece of equipment in your workplace or home meets Australian safety standards.
Does new equipment need to be tested and tagged?
New equipment should have a tag indicating when it was purchased or put into service. However, it doesn’t need immediate testing if it’s newly bought and deemed safe.
How often do I need to test and tag my equipment?
The frequency depends on the type of environment and use. For example, construction equipment requires testing every three months, while office appliances might only need it every five years. Refer to AS/NZS 3760 for specific intervals.
What is the cost of your test and tag services?
The cost of our test and tag services at Down to the Wire can vary depending on several factors, such as the number of items to be tested, the type of environment (e.g., office, construction site), and any specific requirements you might have. We aim to provide competitive and transparent pricing tailored to your needs. For an accurate quote and more detailed information, it’s best to contact us directly.
What happens if an appliance fails the test?
Any appliance that fails testing must be tagged as faulty and removed from use until it is repaired by a licensed electrician, retested, and deemed safe.
Is testing and tagging the same for all types of equipment?
No, different types of equipment might require specific tests. For instance, RCDs (safety switches) have different testing requirements than other electrical appliances.
How frequently are Type 1 and Type 2 safety switches required to undergo testing?
For Type 1 and Type 2 safety switches, the testing intervals vary depending on the work environment and type of switch. Here’s a summary of the testing frequencies for different settings:
-
Construction Work:
-
Fixed safety switch: Push-button user test every month, operating time/current test annually.
-
Portable safety switch: Push-button user test daily or before each use (whichever is longer), operating time/current test every three months.
-
-
Manufacturing Work:
-
Fixed safety switch: Push-button user test every six months, operating time/current test annually.
-
NOTE: Portable safety switches are prohibited in manufacturing work.
-
-
Office Work:
-
Fixed safety switch: Push-button user test every six months, operating time/current test every two years.
-
Portable safety switch: Push-button user test every three months, operating time/current test every two years.
-
These guidelines ensure that safety switches are maintained properly to provide maximum protection against electrical faults.
