When do you need to Test and Tag?
All “Equipment used for commercial Cleaning” must be tested and tagged every 6 months with the exception of new equipment.*
*Source: Portable Appliance Testing to AS/NZS3760 & AS/NZS3012
What if I buy a new machine?
New equipment in accordance with AS/NZS 3760:2010 need not be inspected or tested, but shall be tagged as if it was and the tag will be marked with the date of actual inspection and test as well as re-test date prior to introduction to service.
From then on, you need to ensure all your Electrical Equipment is tagged every 6months or after every repair.
What if I get my machine repaired or serviced?
Every time your cleaning equipment gets repaired or serviced, you must test and tag it again regardless if it’s new or within the last 6 month test. As prescribed by the Occupational Safety and Health Regulations , the person having control of a workplace or access to that workplace, i.e. employer, self-employed person, main contractor, must ensure that all plug-in electrical equipment and residual current devices (RCDs) at the workplace are safe and appropriately inspected, tested and tagged and by a competent and trained person.
