1. Initial Consultation and Site Assessment
Every SafeTag inspection starts with a clear understanding of your premises and requirements. Our team communicates with your facility managers to:
- Identify the type of site (office, warehouse, industrial, etc.)
- Determine the number and type of appliances or systems
- Schedule the inspection with minimal disruption to your daily operations
This planning stage ensures our team arrives prepared with the right tools and understanding of your workplace layout.
2. Visual Inspection of Electrical Systems
Our trained technicians begin with a comprehensive visual inspection. This involves:
- Checking the condition of plugs, sockets, switches, and wiring
- Identifying signs of overheating, corrosion, or damage
- Ensuring electrical load is appropriate for connected appliances
- Spotting any unsafe DIY repairs or outdated components
This step helps uncover obvious defects that could become safety threats if left unaddressed. To Know More Click Here

- Earth continuity testing – verifies the proper grounding of appliances and outlets
- Insulation resistance – checks for electrical leakage and potential short circuits

- Voltage and load checks – confirms that systems operate within safe limits
Each result is carefully recorded and categorized based on urgency and compliance standards.

- The Electricity at Work Regulations 1989
- AS/NZS 3760 standards for electrical testing and tagging
