SydTag keeps Sydney workplaces safe and AS/NZS 3760 compliant. Fast on-site electrical testing and tagging for offices, shops, factories and construction sites — with a full compliance report every time.
Test and tag is the inspection and electrical testing of portable appliances — power leads, power boards, tools, computers, kitchen appliances and more. Each item gets a visual inspection, an electrical safety test, and a durable tag showing the test date, next test due, and who tested it.
Damaged leads and faulty appliances are a leading cause of workplace electric shock and electrical fires. Testing finds faults before they hurt someone.
Employers must ensure electrical equipment is safe. Testing to AS/NZS 3760 is the recognised way to demonstrate you've done exactly that.
Insurers, landlords, principal contractors and site inductions frequently require current test tags and records before you can work or claim.
AS/NZS 3760 is the Australian and New Zealand standard for the in-service safety inspection and testing of electrical equipment. It sets out what must be tested, how it's tested, and how often — based on the environment the equipment is used in.
Under NSW work health and safety law, a business must ensure its electrical equipment is safe to use. Following AS/NZS 3760 is the accepted way to demonstrate this — and it's mandatory on construction sites.
The good news: you don't need to know the standard. SydTag handles the whole process — testing, tagging, and a complete asset register you can hand to any auditor, insurer or site manager.
A SydTag technician comes to you and works through every appliance and lead on site — methodically, with minimal disruption to your team.
A visual check of each appliance and cable — spotting damaged insulation, tampering or wear and tear.
An electrical test of each item with a calibrated tester — reducing the risk of electrocution and fire.
Passing items receive a durable tag with an item code, the test date, and when it's next due.
Failed items get a bright "Fail" tag and we let you know straight away so they can be removed from use.
You receive a comprehensive report of every item's result — ready for your insurance and compliance records.
We check your microwaves for radiation leaks — a quick add-on to any test and tag visit that keeps kitchen and lunchroom staff safe. Just tick the box on the quote form.
AS/NZS 3760 sets test intervals by environment — the tougher the conditions, the more often items need testing.
| Environment | Typical equipment | Test interval |
|---|---|---|
| Construction & building sites | Power tools, extension leads, RCDs | Every 3 months |
| Factories, workshops & manufacturing | Machinery leads, bench tools, welders | Every 6 months |
| Commercial cleaning & hire equipment | Vacuums, polishers, hire tools | Every 6 months |
| Hostile environments (kitchens, warehouses) | Kitchen appliances, warehouse equipment | Every 12 months |
| Offices, shops & other non-hostile environments | Computers, monitors, chargers, fans | Every 12 months* |
