Three Phase Testing
What's involved
Our work is completed in accordance with the current Australian standard - AS/NZS 3760:2022 In-service safety inspection and testing of electrical equipment and RCDs.
During the test and tag process, our technicians will conduct a visual inspection, complete testing with a state-of-the-art PAT (Portable Appliance Tester) device, tag the equipment and provide you with a comprehensive report.
Three Phase Equipment is often found in workshops and manufacturing environments where higher voltage is required to run industrial equipment.

Why this is needed
Safety Compliance
The Work Health and Safety Act 2011 (QLD) and the Electrical Safety Regulation 2013 (QLD) require businesses to ensure electrical equipment is safe and maintained in a way that minimises risk.
High Voltage Risks
Three phase equipment operates at higher voltages than standard single phase equipment, which increases the risk of electrical accidents such as shocks and fires. Regular testing and tagging helps identify potential faults and defects, reducing these risks.
Legal Obligations
Employers are required to ensure a safe work environment, this includes identifying and managing electrical risks. Failing to ensure electrical safety can lead to legal liability, fines, and increased workplace risks.
Insurance Requirements
Many insurance policies require businesses to regularly test and tag their electrical equipment, including three phase equipment. Failure to comply with these requirements can result in denied insurance claims in the event of an accident.
Equipment Performance
Regular testing and tagging can help identify issues before they lead to equipment failure. This ensures that your three phase equipment operates efficiently and reliably, minimising downtime and maintenance costs.
Peace of Mind
Knowing that your three phase equipment is regularly tested and tagged provides peace of mind, ensuring that your workplace is safe and compliant. This allows you to focus on your core business operations without worrying about potential electrical hazards.
Our Process
Visual Inspection of the Equipment
We will check for any damage to the equipment, leads and plugs. Looking for loose or damaged pins, cuts and exposed wires or general damage to the piece of equipment.
Earth Continuity Testing
To confirm that the resistance of the protective earth circuit is sufficiently low to ensure correct operation of the circuit protecting device in the event of a fault occurring.
Insulation Resistance Testing
To prove that no unexpected leakage of electrical current is occurring from the electrical equipment.
Current Leakage Test
Check for any leakage current to the earth while equipment is switched on.
Generate Report
We provide a detailed digital report summarising the test results, including recommendations for maintenance or repairs and the date your equipment is next due for testing.
