Building sites are a special case. We’re not talking about powerboards sitting untouched in an office! Construction and demolition sites see some rough action and harsh conditions. This means that tools can easily be damaged. Many site managers organise Test and Tag sessions once a month.
The government body that regulates safety is SafeWork NSW. To see how the regulations that apply to you, visit their Electrical Inspection and Testing page. Be aware that a failure to ensure a safe workplace can result in prosecution by SafeWork NSW.
Engaging SydTag to deliver our routine Test and Tag service can significantly lower your risk. The Australian standard relating to construction and demolition sites that outlines the regular inspection and testing requirements is AS/NZS 3012: 2010 – Electrical installations
