Overview

Mandatory Workplace Electrical Safety Compliance

Under New Zealand Health and Safety at Work (HSW) regulations, business owners and PCBUs are responsible for ensuring that all electrical equipment in the workplace is safe for use. Portable appliances, tools, and leads must be regularly inspected and tested to minimize the risk of fire or electric shock.

Electromech's certified technicians provide comprehensive test and tag services across Auckland. We use the latest Portable Appliance Testers (PAT) to perform insulation, grounding, and polarity checks on all your electrical gear—from office laptops to heavy-duty industrial machinery and 3-phase equipment.

We don't just "tick the box." If we find a faulty lead or appliance, we can often perform on-the-spot repairs, such as replacing a broken plug, to get your equipment back in service safely. Our digital reporting system provides you with a full asset register and compliance report for your health and safety records, ensuring you are ready for any HSE audit.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

How often do I need to test and tag my equipment?
The frequency depends on the environment. Construction sites typically require 3-monthly testing, while offices usually require testing every 12 to 24 months. We can advise you on the specific requirements for your industry.
Does every electrical item need to be tested?
Generally, any appliance that plugs into a power point needs to be tested. This includes computers, kettles, power tools, extension leads, and phone chargers.
What happens if an item fails the test?
We will immediately notify your site contact. We "Danger" tag the item and remove it from service. If it's a simple fix like a broken plug, we can often repair it on-site.
Do you provide a report for my health and safety folder?
Yes, we provide a comprehensive digital report listing every item tested, its serial number/asset ID, the test results, and the next test date.
