Testing and Tagging in Coorparoo: What You Should Know

My appliances are working perfectly fine. Should I get them tested and tagged? 

Yes. Even if your electrical devices appear to be functioning properly, you’ll never know the electrical risks they carry unless you get them tested and tagged. 

To enhance your premises’ electrical safety, it is best to get in touch with an expert electrician who can inspect and repair your plug-in electrical devices. 

How many times should testing and tagging be done?

The electrical test and tag process should be conducted in compliance with the AS-mandated intervals. Depending on the type of work the equipment is used, testing and tagging are usually required to be conducted between 3 months to 2 years. 

Can my employee or my family member do test and tag works?  

Unfortunately, no. It is against the law to allow those without licence to conduct testing and tagging. Only those with formal training are legally allowed to perform major electrical works like testing and tagging.
