Test & Tag in Kwinana

On-site inspection, testing and tagging to AS/NZS 3760 for Kwinana workplaces — heavy industry — with a full compliance register and reminders before the next round is due.

Kwinana is Western Australia's heavy-industrial heartland — the Kwinana Industrial Area's processing plants, the port, and the maintenance contractors, fabricators and suppliers that serve them from the surrounding estates. Contractors working inside the industrial area need current calibration certificates and test & tag registers to get through site inductions.

Who we test & tag in Kwinana

  • Maintenance and shutdown contractor workshops
  • Fabrication and engineering shops
  • Industrial suppliers and hire yards
  • Town-centre offices and services

Calibration pickup & drop-off in Kwinana

Test & tag happens at your premises. Calibration does not — it is bench work performed in our Caversham lab against references traceable to national standards. While our technician is in Kwinana for the round, we collect any instruments that are due and return them with their certificates, so you deal with one supplier and one invoice.

Getting to Kwinana

FAQ

Test & tag in Kwinana FAQs

We do shutdown work in the Kwinana Industrial Area — can you get our instruments certified before a shutdown?
Yes. Tell us the shutdown date when you book. We collect from your Kwinana workshop, calibrate in our Caversham lab, and confirm the turnaround in writing so certificates are ready for the induction.
What interval applies to tools used inside processing plants?
Contractor tools used in plant maintenance are generally treated as workshop or construction-type environments — 6 or 3 months under AS/NZS 3760 depending on the work. We confirm the classification with you and set the register accordingly.
Is test and tag a legal requirement?
Under WHS law every employer has a duty to keep electrical equipment safe. AS/NZS 3760 is a standard rather than a law in itself, but it is the recognised way to meet that duty — and on construction and demolition sites, WHS regulations make testing and tagging of portable equipment a requirement.
What is included in a test and tag?
A visual inspection, an electrical safety test with a calibrated appliance tester, a durable tag showing the test and due dates, and an itemised register of results for your records.
