The costs and dangers of in-house testing and tagging

For a host of reasons, DIY is not the answer for electrical appliance testing. First off, there are the initial costs of purchasing specialised testing equipment, then training and certifying the user to meet AS/NZS 3760 standards.

Then, you need to factor in the time taken away from regular duties to conduct the test and tagging.

And, it’s not just testing and tagging that’s required, but also the development of a comprehensive inspection program as well as scheduled reminders and, importantly, detailed reporting.

Keep in mind that inexperienced test taggers can be hazardous to equipment and employees when faults are overlooked. There’s a unique danger of this happening in the in-house tester’s workplace when noticeable faults have been worked around over a period of time.

Finally, even quality testing equipment requires regular calibration, at least annually, adding more to the costs. Calibrating PAT testers costs around $200 per testing unit, per year.

So, for the sake of your employees’ safety, your equipment’s longevity and the avoidance of several upfront and ongoing in-house test and tag costs, outsource your tagging and testing to ElectroTechnics. Ensure workplace peace of mind at a competitive price and get in touch.
