Book Test & Tag All ElectricalTest and tag is the routine inspection and testing of portable electrical appliances and leads to confirm they're safe to use. Each item that passes is fitted with a tag showing it's been tested and when it's next due.
Faulty electrical equipment is a common cause of workplace injury and fire. Test and tag is a straightforward way to identify damaged gear before it causes harm.
For many workplaces, regular testing of portable equipment forms part of meeting electrical safety obligations, and an up-to-date register helps demonstrate due diligence.
Sebelec is licensed in the NT and SA and provides a clear record of every item tested.
Every item is first inspected visually for obvious damage — frayed leads, cracked plugs, damaged casings. It's then connected to a calibrated appliance tester that checks earthing, insulation and polarity as applicable. Items that pass are tagged with the test date, the next due date and the tester's details. Anything that fails is removed from service so it can't be used until repaired or replaced.
It's most commonly associated with workplaces — offices, hospitality venues, retail, workshops — and with construction and hostile environments where equipment takes a beating and testing intervals are shorter. Remote operations and stations also benefit, since equipment failures a long way from town are costly and disruptive.
The interval depends on the environment and how the equipment is used — harsher environments like construction sites require more frequent testing than a typical office. We'll recommend an appropriate schedule for your workplace and can remind you when re-testing falls due.
