Why Schools Need Test & Tag
Schools pack a wide range of electrical equipment into a short working day — classrooms, science labs, workshops, halls, kitchens and IT rooms. Testing is planned around term breaks and delivered by technicians who are safe to have around students.
- 01
Students and staff safety is the number one priority.
- 02
Science labs, workshops, and IT rooms have high-density electrical equipment.
- 03
Testing during school holidays minimises disruption to learning.
- 04
Working with Children checks are required for all technicians on site.
Challenges
Schools Electrical Safety Challenges
Term-time constraints, student safety obligations and a wide equipment mix drive the program.
Testing during school holidays
Term breaks allow full coverage of classrooms, halls and staff areas without interrupting teaching.
Working with Children checks required
Technicians working around students hold current Working with Children checks and police clearances.
Science lab equipment
Lab power supplies, heating equipment and instruments are tested individually and recorded in the school's asset register.
IT equipment across multiple rooms
Computer rooms and device trolleys are worked through room by room to keep the schedule predictable.
Hall and gym equipment
PA systems, lighting and gym equipment are covered in the same program so nothing is missed between terms.
Our Process
How We Test Schools Equipment
Every visit follows the same disciplined sequence, adapted to the access, scheduling and equipment realities of schools sites.
01
Visual Inspection
Plugs, cords, casings and guards are examined for damage, wear and signs of heat before any instrument is connected.
02
Electrical Testing
Earth continuity, insulation resistance and leakage testing carried out against AS/NZS 3760, with a pass or fail recorded for every item.
03
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.
04
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 Schools
This is the portable equipment we most often see at schools 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.

Digital Compliance Tools Included
When we test your site, the digital side of the job is part of the service — not an extra product. Every item tested is recorded in a QR-linked asset register, and the reports, certificates and reminders that hang off it come as part of your inspection.
The register is the centre of the system: scan the label on any item and its result, history and next test date are there, which is what makes reviews and audits quick.
QR Asset Labels
Durable QR codes on every tested item linking to full test history.
Online Portal
24/7 access to your complete asset register and compliance status.
Digital Certificates
Formal compliance certificates for auditors and regulators.
Compliance Reports
Detailed reports with pass/fail summaries and recommendations.
Reminder System
Automated email alerts when items are due for retesting.
Asset Register
Complete register of all tested items with search and filtering.
