Home > Test & Tag > Why do I need to Test & Tag?
Not testing and tagging electrical equipment can pose several dangers:
Safety Hazard
Electrical equipment that has not been tested and tagged can pose a serious safety hazard to the people using it. Faulty equipment can lead to electrical shock, fire, and even death.
Legal Implications
It is a legal requirement to test and tag electrical equipment regularly to ensure it is safe for use. Failure to do so can result in hefty fines and legal action.
Loss of Productivity
Faulty electrical equipment can cause downtime and disruption to work processes, leading to a loss of productivity and income.
Insurance Implications
Insurance companies may refuse to pay out claims if it is found that electrical equipment was not properly tested and tagged, and as a result, contributed to an accident or damage.
Reputation Damages
Incidents involving faulty electrical equipment can damage the reputation of a business or organisation. This can have long-lasting effects on the image and success of the company.
Regular testing and tagging of electrical equipment is important to ensure safety, comply with legal requirements, maintain productivity, protect insurance cover, and avoid fines from OH&S.
