Does our "Safety Switch" (RCD) need regular testing?

Yes. Your RCDs need to be tested to ensure that they will respond to a fault situation quickly enough, and before there is enough current flowing to give a person a dangerous electric shock. Express Test and Tag can test your RCDs to ensure that they comply with the standard

We have a "Safety Switch" installed. Aren't we protected?

No, not entirely. A "Safety Switch" or Residual Current Device (RCD) only protects against certain types of electrical faults. It is recommended that all homes and workplaces be fitted with RCDs. The use of an RCD however, is no excuse for complacency when it comes to the regular inspection and testing of your electrical appliances.

Do I need to have my appliances tested and tagged?
It is every employer's obligation under the Work Health and Safety Act 2011 to ensure that they provide a safe place of work for their employees. This includes ensuring that the risk of electric shock from portable electrical equipment and appliances is minimised. There are hefty penalties for employers and all levels of management where inadequate safety leads to the injury or death of a worker. In NSW, sections 149 150 and 151of the Work Health and Safety Regulation 2011 specify the obligations of employers in relation to electrical safety. Electrical testing and tagging forms a part of your workplace risk management system.

What is test and tag?

Test and tag is the procedure for the safety checking of electrical appliances. Workplaces in NSW must be able to demonstrate safe systems of work, including electrical safety. Portable appliances including power tools, extension leads and vacuum cleaners are items that are frequently handled by workers, and are open to abuse and hostile environmental conditions which can cause them to become electrically unsafe.

Test and Tag is a strategy which minimises the risk of electrical shock to workers. Each piece of equipment is inspected, electrically tested, and then tagged (labelled) at regular intervals. A record of these tests is kept as part of your overall OH&S risk management documentation
