What Test and Tag Actually Is

“Test and Tag” = inspecting + electrically testing portable equipment to help ensure it’s safe to use.

It’s the process of:

1. Visual inspection
Each item is visually checked for obvious damage or wear — things like frayed leads, cracked plugs, exposed wires, or signs of overheating. This catches a surprising number of faults before testing even begins.

2. Electrical testing
The appliance is then tested using calibrated test equipment to check electrical safety factors such as earth continuity, insulation resistance, and polarity. This step identifies faults you can’t see but can seriously hurt someone.

3. Tagging
Once tested, the item is tagged to show:

  • the test result (pass/fail),

  • the date it was tested, and

  • when it is next due for testing.

This gives staff immediate confidence that equipment has been checked and is safe to use.

4. Record keeping and client reporting (aligned with NZQA unit standard expectations)
All tested items are recorded in a test register, in line with best-practice guidance reflected in NZQA unit standards for safety testing and tagging. Records include:

  • asset or item identification,

  • test date and result,

  • tester identification,

  • faults found (if any), and

  • next test due date.

Clients receive a clear report covering all items tested, providing a complete record of results across their site or organisation. This reporting supports workplace safety systems, demonstrates due diligence, and gives businesses confidence that electrical equipment has been checked, documented, and managed properly.
