Calibration pickup & drop-off in Balcatta

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 Balcatta 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.

FAQ

Test & tag in Balcatta FAQs

How do you handle a workshop with a lot of power tools?
Every tool, lead and power board is inspected, tested with a calibrated appliance tester, tagged and logged. Workshop environments are re-tested at 6 months under AS/NZS 3760 and we remind you before each round is due.
Can you calibrate our calipers and micrometers too?
Yes. We collect dimensional instruments during the test & tag visit, calibrate them against traceable gauge blocks in our Caversham lab, and return them with certificates.
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.
