Test & Tag Services FAQs
Testing frequency varies by environment and equipment type. For construction sites in Mackay, testing is typically required every 3 months; for factories and workshops every 6 months; for offices, shops, and hotels every 12 months. Equipment in hostile environments like the outdoors or high-moisture areas requires more frequent testing. Our team advises on the correct schedule for your specific situation according to AS/NZS 3760 standards.
Failed equipment is immediately tagged with a "DANGER—DO NOT USE" tag and detailed in your testing report. We provide specific information about the failure and recommendations for repair or replacement. For minor issues that can be remedied on-site, our technicians can often perform repairs during the same visit, minimising downtime and getting your equipment back into service quickly and safely.
While not explicitly mandated in all circumstances, test and tag services are the most practical way to comply with Queensland Workplace Health and Safety requirements. Businesses have a legal obligation to ensure electrical equipment is safe. For construction sites, test and tag is specifically required, while for other workplaces, it forms part of your broader safety compliance strategy and risk management approach.
We provide comprehensive digital reports including an itemised asset register, test results for each piece of equipment, pass/fail status, test date, and next test due date. This documentation satisfies workplace health and safety requirements, insurance conditions, and provides evidence of your due diligence in electrical safety. For Mackay businesses, we can customise reporting to meet specific industry or project requirements.
Yes, we understand the importance of minimising disruption to Mackay businesses. We offer flexible scheduling including early mornings, evenings, and weekends to accommodate operational requirements. For retail, hospitality, and healthcare facilities, we commonly perform testing outside peak business hours to ensure continuous service for your customers and patients.
