Common workplace considerations

RCDs and safety switches are used to reduce electric-shock risk in appropriate installations and equipment. The testing approach depends on the type of RCD, how it is used and the workplace environment.

What you receive

Depending on the service, Tagshield can provide clear test/service identification and records to make future retesting or maintenance easier to manage. Tell us if you have an existing asset list or reporting requirement.

Planning & Records

How the service fits into your workplace

RCDs are designed as protective devices, but their presence does not remove the need to maintain equipment or follow safe work practices. Testing is one part of checking whether the protective system is operating as expected.

What happens on site

The right test method depends on whether the device is portable, fixed, part of a construction-site arrangement or used in another environment. We do not publish a single interval and claim it applies to every workplace.

Records that remain useful later

For sites with many RCDs, identifying their location and intended use before the visit can make testing and record keeping more useful.

Scheduling with less disruption

RCD testing is often requested together with portable appliance testing, especially in trade and construction environments. Combining the scope can reduce repeated site setup and administration.

Before requesting a quote

Send the suburb, company name, workplace type, approximate item quantity and any access restrictions. If you are unsure which service applies, select the closest option on the contact form and describe the equipment in the message.

A residual current device is a protective device designed to disconnect power when it detects certain leakage-current conditions.

Why test an RCD?

Testing helps verify that the protective device operates as expected. The required test type and interval depend on the workplace, equipment and applicable safety requirements.
