Frequently asked questions
What does the Electrical Test & Tag In-Service Inspection Record cover?
An in-service inspection and test record for testing and tagging of portable electrical equipment — visual inspection, earth continuity and insulation resistance, RCD checks and tagging, with pass / fail / N/A columns and space for defects.
How often should electrical equipment be tested and tagged?
AS/NZS 3760 sets test-and-tag intervals based on the equipment and its environment — from every 3 months in higher-risk settings such as construction and demolition sites, up to 5 years for low-risk equipment like office computers. Record the applicable interval and next-test date on the form.
Who can complete this record?
Electrical installation, testing and inspection work must be carried out by a licensed electrician (some tasks need extra accreditation — for example CEC accreditation for solar). Test-and-tag may be done by a competent person under AS/NZS 3760. Record the technician's name and licence number on the form.
