What office electrical equipment needs testing?

Portable electrical equipment that plugs into a socket outlet — workstations, monitors, printers, chargers, power boards, extension leads and shared kitchen appliances. Fixed wiring is a separate matter handled by licensed electricians.

How often should office equipment be tested?

Testing frequency depends on the environment and how the equipment is used. Lower-risk, relatively stationary office equipment can fall into a longer interval category — we can help you determine an appropriate testing schedule for your site.

Can testing be done around office hours?

Yes. Testing can be scheduled around your team's day, including early mornings, evenings or weekends where it keeps the office running.

Do you keep records for office equipment?

Yes. Every item is recorded with its result and next test date in your asset register, and compliance reports are delivered digitally so records are easy to find and review.

Compliance

Why Offices Need Test & Tag

Offices rely on a dense mix of portable electrical equipment — workstations, monitors, printers, power boards, extension leads and shared kitchen appliances. Testing is about covering all of it with minimal disruption and records that make compliance easy to review.

01
Office electrical equipment testing covers the portable items teams rely on every day — computers, monitors, printers, power boards and extension leads — and identifies equipment that requires attention.
02
Power boards and extension leads are unplugged, moved and reconnected constantly, which is where damage tends to show up first.
03
Clear testing records and documentation make workplace electrical compliance straightforward to review, with every item carrying a result and a date.
04
Ongoing testing visibility keeps upcoming work visible between visits, so testing schedules stay on track across desks, floors and sites.

Challenges

Offices Electrical Safety Challenges

Volume, shared equipment and office hours are what shape a practical testing program.

High volume of portable electrical equipment

Every workstation adds items to the register — computers, monitors, printers, chargers and more — so the program is built for volume without disruption.

Power boards and extension leads in constant use

Leads and power boards are unplugged and moved constantly, which is where damage shows up first.

Shared equipment moved between desks and rooms

Shared items move around the office, so each one is tracked to a location and tested wherever it ends up.

Testing that works around office hours

Testing can be scheduled early, late or across quiet periods so the working day continues uninterrupted.

Clear records across floors and tenancies

Every item carries a result and a next test date, so compliance records stay clear across floors and sites.

Our Process

How We Test Offices Equipment

Every visit follows the same disciplined sequence, adapted to the access, scheduling and equipment realities of offices sites.

Visual Inspection

Plugs, cords, casings and guards are examined for damage, wear and signs of heat before any instrument is connected.

Electrical Testing

Earth continuity, insulation resistance and leakage testing carried out against AS/NZS 3760, with a pass or fail recorded for every item.

QR Asset Tracking

Each tested item receives a unique QR code linking to its full test history and next test date in your asset register.

Digital Records

Results, photos of failed items and next test dates are delivered in digital compliance reports within 24 hours.

Equipment

Equipment We Test in Offices

This is the portable equipment we most often see at offices workplaces — a working sample rather than a limit. If it plugs in and your team relies on it, it is tested and recorded the same way.

Computers & Monitors
Printers & Copiers
Power Boards
Extension Leads
Kitchen Appliances
Chargers & Adapters
