Testing and tagging involves inspecting and testing all in-service electrical equipment to identify faults, wear or potential safety hazards. This process plays a vital role in protecting your staff and visitors while helping reduce the risk of costly incidents or insurance claims. Our technicians follow the AS/NZS 3760 standard and provide detailed reporting along with clear retesting schedules.
It’s critical to regularly get your smoke alarm and fire extinguishers tested properly. Fire Extinguishers are the easiest and fastest way of protecting you and your business when a fire occurs, and smoke alarms can reduce house fire deaths by up to 60%.
If a fire or blackout occurs, your emergency and exit lights must remain illuminated long enough for everyone to exit safely. We carry out discharge testing and visual inspections every six months as required under AS/NZS 2293.2. We also make sure your logbook is up to date and all lights are positioned correctly, clearly visible and working as intended.
Microwaves can pose health risks if they are leaking radiation or damaged internally. Our testing confirms whether your microwave ovens are safe to use, ensuring they do not emit unsafe levels of radiation. This is an important service in office kitchens, lunchrooms, food outlets and childcare centres.
RCDs (residual current devices) are designed to cut the power instantly if a fault is detected, preventing electric shock or electrocution. Our technicians carry out precise trip time testing using calibrated equipment to ensure your safety switches respond as they should. Regular RCD testing is essential in all environments, especially those involving outdoor or high-powered equipment.
Tools, instruments and equipment that are poorly maintained, inappropriately used or not fit for their purpose can cause injuries, and lead to dangerous work environments for not only workers but anyone within the area of the workplace. The best way to prevent this is to hire a technician with the expertise and knowledge to keep your portable appliances safe.
Fire Extinguishers are the easiest and fastest way of protecting you and your business when a fire occurs. Over 90% of all fires are first extinguished using a portable fire extinguisher, and countless lives are saved due to diligence in testing and maintaining fire extinguishers.

The energy produced by a microwave oven can also penetrate through living tissue which is why exposure is harmful to our health. It’s crucial all microwaves in your workplace are tested regularly to ensure they are in safe working order.
An RCD (Residual Current Device) detects and halts the power in an electrical socket preventing dangerous electric currents and fatal electric shocks. Every home and workplace should enlist in regular RCD safety switch testing to ensure they are working correctly.
Portable appliances are commonly used in workplaces but can become dangerous if not properly maintained. We inspect and test tools, equipment and instruments to ensure they are fit for purpose and operating safely. By detecting electrical faults early, PAT testing helps you reduce the risk of injury and improve your workplace safety standards.
Fire extinguishers are the most effective way to respond quickly in the early stages of a fire. Our team checks the pressure, condition, expiry and correct placement of each extinguisher in line with AS 1851. We service all types of extinguishers and can arrange refills or replacements if needed. Regular testing not only helps you stay compliant but also ensures your equipment works when it matters most.
Every business should have a properly stocked and accessible first aid kit. At Jim’s Test & Tag, we supply and install workplace first aid kits that comply with current WHS regulations. We can also restock your kit on a regular schedule to keep your team prepared for any minor injury or emergency.
