Professional Standards
Most test and tag companies focus on getting through as many items as possible. We focus on doing the job properly and safely, the way the Australian Standard (AS/NZS 3760) actually requires. Here’s how we’re different: No "sticker and go" approach: We don’t just slap on tags. Many appliances require multiple tests. For example, the appliance, its detachable cord, and sometimes the power board all need to be checked separately. We follow the correct process every time. Licensed and qualified: We are an electrical contractor, not casual taggers. That means we are fully qualified, insured, and accountable. All tests are carried out using calibrated professional equipment. We test more than most: We also test 3-phase equipment, RCDs (safety switches) and microwave leakage where required. These are areas many taggers skip. Transparent pack pricing: We charge by service packs (for example, Small Business Pack – $185 for up to 15 items) instead of per tag. This ensures proper testing of every appliance and avoids the "rush through more tags" mentality. Detailed reports and reminders: You receive a full compliance report listing all items, results, and retest dates, plus friendly reminders before your next test is due. At GC Electrical Safety, our focus is on accuracy, accountability, and long-term safety, not just compliance paperwork.
