RCDs – also known as safety switches – provide protection against electric shock.

Put simply – they save lives!

As an important part of fulfilling your OH&S obligations and maintaining a fully compliant test and tagging program, all RCD’s / safety switches used in the workplace must be checked on a regular basis to ensure they are working correctly.

Our technicians are trained in how to correctly test both fixed and portable RCDs / safety switches to the full requirements of Australian Standard AS/NZS 3760;

• measure the actual trip time to within +/- 8 ms (8/1,000th of a second)
• test using the “push button” method
• record results
• identify any faulty devices
• apply compliance tag

To have your RCDs/Safety Switches checked call us today.

Note: RCDs are very different to circuit breakers that are designed to provide overload protection. For more information, contact ACME Test and Tagging today.
