Test & Tag Electrical – Safety & Compliance
Electrical equipment is used in every workplace, whether it’s an office, school, retail store, or industrial facility. When appliances become worn or go untested, they can pose significant fire and safety risks. Routine test and tag services help ensure your equipment remains safe, compliant, and functioning correctly. At FCF Fire & Electrical, we carry out comprehensive testing, tagging, and reporting to keep your workplace protected and fully compliant.
Compliance You Can Trust
Electrical testing and tagging must be carried out in accordance with AS3760: In-service Safety Inspection and Testing of Electrical Equipment. This Standard ensures appliances remain safe to use and supports your Workplace Health and Safety (WHS) responsibilities. Non-compliance can result in fines, insurance issues, and avoidable workplace incidents.

Test and tag involves electrically inspecting and testing powered fire equipment, such as extinguishers with gauges, fire panels, and emergency lighting, to confirm it is safe, functional, and compliant.

Intervals vary by equipment type, but most electrically powered fire devices require testing every 6–12 months in line with AS3760 and WHS requirements.
