20.01.2022 Happy New Year!!!

17.01.2022 WHAT’S TEST and TAG? Test and Tag is the process of checking the safety of portable electrical appliances. It involves two parts: first the visual inspection of the appliance for any damage, followed by electrically testing it with a Portable Appliance Tester.... Once tested, the item is placed with a tag to confirm that it has in fact been tested, along with showing who tested it, the test date and when the next test is due. The primary reason behind doing testing and tagging is to ensure the safety of the people in the workplace coming into contact with the appliance, while also minimising the risk of an electrical hazard. The AS/NZS 3760 is the Australian Standard that provides guidelines and regulations for the test and tag industry with regards to electrical safety of appliances. It sets out recommendations to issues such as test and tag intervals, defines who can test and tag and general guidelines.
