01
Test and Tagging
What is Test and Tagging ?
Test and Tagging is a requirement by SafeWork NSW who is responsible for enforcing and monitoring compliance with Australia's Work Health and Safety (WHS) regulations, which is a process of carefully visually inspecting each appliance for damage to caable, connections, guards, covers and plugs. Once the item is safe to electrically inspect, the item’s insulation, earthing and polarity may be tested to ensure it is electrically safe.
02
RCD Testing
What is RCD Testing?
In Australia, an RCD (residual current device) is a safety device designed to protect against electric shock. Electrical RCD testing refers to the process of testing the RCD to ensure that it is functioning properly and will provide adequate protection in the event of an electrical fault.
The testing of RCDs in Australia is governed by the Australian Standard AS/NZS 3760:2010. This standard requires that RCDs be tested every six months to ensure that they are functioning properly.
It is important to have RCDs tested regularly to ensure that they are providing adequate protection against electrical shock. This is particularly important in workplaces where employees may be at risk of electrical hazards, but it is also important in homes and other residential settings

Thermal Imaging
What is Thermal Imaging
Thermal imaging is a non-contact way to find electrical problems It makes it possible to identify electrical defects such as loose connections, overloaded circuits, transformer cooling faults, motor winding faults, and induced currents. The primary use of thermal imaging within an electrical setup is to detect increased thermal emissivity from a given electrical component. When such components are stressed or not working properly, one of the most common results is them heating up and emitting more thermal waves, something thermal imaging can pick up.
