One of Test and Tag Canberra’s most popular services is Single Phase testing. Single Phase electric is the standard supply you would expect to find in the home or office. Portable Appliance Tests are performed to confirm that 240V mains equipment is safe to use. Once we have tested it, we will tag and log it, so you have peace of mind.
RCD’s & PRCD’s are used in many different environments. Their purpose is to quickly cut the power to a device in the event of a problem. Ensuring an RCD trips quickly enough at the correct current is an important requirement of ASNZS 3760. Our team of expert technicians are ready to ensure your RCD’s & PRCD’s are in top condition.
Plug Top Replacement is the process of replacing a faulty or incorrect electrical plug. Damage can occur in a variety of forms such as discoloration, corrosion, deformation, or loose connections. If we discover a plug is faulty during our inspection, we can quickly change it for a brand new Australian 3 pin plug.
In the industrial world, 3-phase electric is very common in commercial kitchens. 3-phase runs at 415V. Our experienced Test and Tag Canberra technicians will test in accordance with AS/NZS 3760:2010. The primary tests include:
- Visual Testing – to check if the wires are in good working order, not cracking or chipping.
- Earth Continuity – measures the resistance in the earth wire.
- Insulation Resistance – this ensures the insulation has a high resistance and protects users from possible shocks.
- Earth Leakage – will ensure that any leakage between the mains conductors and the earth pin is low enough to avoid electrocution.
In addition, we can test the trips on your 3-Phase RCDs for correct operation – this means below 300ms.
In the Kitchen, one of the most important tests that needs to be performed is for the correct operation of the microwave casing. Leaking microwaves have the potential to cause interference with other electrical devices as well as creating long term health issues. Our technicians will use a digital microwave leakage tester to make sure the levels of radiation are within safe limits.
In addition to electrical testing, Canberra Test and Tag are also experts in testing your Fire Extinguishers, Fire Blankets & Fire Hose Reels.
Emergency lighting and exit signs are another very important safety feature of any building. Canberra Test and Tag will check the lighting is fully operational, batteries are in good condition, and check for any signs of upcoming issues.
We test all the fire protection equipment according to the Australian Standard: AS 1851-2012.
