How often does an appliance need to be tested and tagged?
In accordance with AS
/
NZS 3760:2010 any appliance within the workplace is required to receive a safety inspection based on its level of risk and exposure to hazardous environments.
6 monthly inspection: For any piece of equipment that is exposed to constant flexing or hazardous conditions. We see this a lot in the construction/demolition industry and the cleaning industry. Examples include:
5 yearly inspection: This inspection time period is for anything that is not prone to flexing or in and around a hazardous environment. We still recommend to have these appliances checked within this 5 year period, as there is no guarantee the appliances wasn’t exposed to hazards over such an extensive period. Discretion should definitely be used and a thorough inspection is required.
