Find answers to common questions about our test and tag services.

Electrical test and tag is the process of inspecting, testing, and tagging electrical equipment to ensure it is safe to use. It helps identify faults that could cause electric shock, fire, or equipment failure.
Testing and tagging helps keep people safe, reduces the risk of electrical accidents, and ensures your business meets workplace safety requirements. It can also reduce liability and insurance issues.
Workplace safety laws require employers and business owners to ensure electrical equipment is safe. While the law may not always say "test and tag" by name, testing and tagging is the accepted way to prove compliance.
The frequency depends on the environment/Industry: • Construction sites: Every 3 months • Factories & workshops: Every 6–12 months • Offices & retail: Every 12 months • Hire equipment: Before each hire • Residential Institutions: Every 12 months

Absolutely. You'll receive a detailed test report for your records, audits, or insurance purposes. Digital copies are available on request.
Pricing is usually based on the number of items tested. We offer competitive rates and discounts for large quantities or regular maintenance schedules.
The tag remains valid until the next scheduled test date, provided the equipment is not damaged, modified, or exposed to harsh conditions in the meantime.
