*Not legal advice — check with your lawyer.
1. Inspect new electrical equipment for damage before use

Maximum fine for failure: $18,000

Equipment must be regularly inspected and tested "by a competent person" if it is powered from an electrical power socket and used somewhere it's more likely to become damaged.
Maximum fine for failure: $18,000
3. Tag & document every test
You need to keep accurate records of each and every legally required test — until the next test, or until the equipment is thrown out.

Getting Your School Safe: You Need the Highest Standards
We strictly follow the Australia/New Zealand Standard AS/NZS 3760:2010 — the 42 page document which lays out the specifications for proper electronic testing. Our experienced engineers have a process to make sure your electricals are compliant to the 3760:2010 standard, so your school is safe.
If any piece of equipment fails our rigorous examination, it'll be immediately tagged and flagged — to make sure no risk is spread.
Don't Risk the Dangers to Your Students, Staff & Property

Unsafe electrical appliances can cause electrical fires — loss of property, productivity, injury or death.

NT health & safety law requires electrical devices to be inspected regularly. Managers are responsible for a safe workplace.
