Making sure your electrical equipment meets the Workplace Health and Safety Regulations is very important in Queensland. Using electricians for the repairs on electrical equipment helps save money and time. In majority of cases the business owner or manager has the choice to repair or replace the failed item.

RCD testing or otherwise known as Safety Switch’s carry a requirement to be tested in Queensland businesses.

The testing has two tests per year with the first test being a push button test. This is a simple test to ensure that the internals react in a timely manner with no delay to the test facility. A yearly test can be performed two ways. Normally with an electrician and without. An electrician with an observer (trained in switchboard rescue) can remove the switchboard cover and access all the relevant test points efficiently. A non-electrician will use a RCD test meter to determine if the RCD phases react to below 300ms.
