Test and tag Mackay: scope and suitability
Portable appliance testing is part of the agreed equipment inspection scope. A testing programme should reflect the equipment you use and the environment it works in. Office appliances, workshop tools and portable leads can be exposed to very different wear and damage. Test and tag concerns applicable equipment at the time of inspection; it is not a substitute for maintaining fixed wiring or managing other workplace hazards.
Tools and portable appliances:
Identify equipment within the agreed inspection and testing scope.
Leads and power boards:
Include applicable extension leads and portable distribution equipment in the inventory.
Condition and electrical tests:
Check visible damage and undertake appropriate testing for the equipment type.
Identification and records:
Agree on how equipment and results will be recorded for the workplace.
Defect follow-up:
Explain items that must be removed from use and any repair or replacement decisions needed.
Offices, workshops and commercial or industrial operations
This service suits businesses arranging an initial equipment check or coordinating ongoing maintenance. Tell us whether equipment is spread across departments, taken off-site or unavailable during normal trade. Site access, inductions and equipment inventories affect how the visit is organised. The duty holder remains responsible for determining applicable workplace obligations; a generic annual visit is not automatically the correct interval for every item.
From enquiry to completed electrical work
Agree on the scope before work starts. The installation, access and equipment determine the work required; no fixed price or timeframe is assumed.
Define the inventory:
List equipment types, approximate numbers, locations and any items that cannot be disconnected during trade.
Agree on requirements:
Discuss environment, applicable intervals, access and the reporting needed.
Inspect and test:
Make equipment available for the agreed checks and record the results.
Act on defects:
Keep failed or unsafe equipment out of service and arrange the appropriate repair or replacement.
A tag is not a guarantee of ongoing safety
An item can be damaged after testing. Staff should still report damaged plugs, leads, cases and unusual operation, and unsafe equipment should not be used.
Testing intervals vary with equipment, use and environment. Do not assume every workplace or appliance has the same schedule.
Test and tag does not certify an entire workplace, its switchboard or fixed wiring. Ask about separate electrical inspections for those installations.
Discuss your electrical work
Provide an approximate equipment count, workplace type, site access requirements and preferred operating window. Tell us what records you need and whether this work should be combined with wider maintenance. Tell us your Mackay address and confirm access for the proposed work.

Questions before booking
How often does equipment need testing and tagging?
The appropriate interval depends on equipment type, workplace use, environment and applicable requirements. There is no single schedule that can safely be applied to every item.
Does a current tag guarantee an appliance is safe?
No. Results describe the inspection and testing at that time. Subsequent damage or changed use can create a hazard, so condition checks and reporting remain important.
Does test and tag cover fixed wiring?
No. Portable equipment testing and fixed-installation inspections have different scopes. Switchboard, circuit and building wiring checks must be arranged separately.
Can the visit be combined with maintenance?
Yes, ask about coordination with commercial or industrial maintenance. Equipment access, reporting and any other inspection work should be explicitly included in the agreed scope.
