Proquip Offers Test and Tag Services to our customers, ensuring the electrical safety and compliance of electrical equipment.
Proquip provides comprehensive electrical test and tag services to its customers, ensuring the safety and compliance of electrical equipment. Our technicians in Wellington and Auckland hold at minimum an EAS electrical qualification issued by the Electrical Workers Registration Board (EWRB) in New Zealand, and are experts in their field. They meticulously record all test results in accordance with the AS/NZS 3760 standard, guaranteeing thorough documentation and adherence to regulatory requirements.
For clients outside Wellington and Auckland, we can refer you to other trusted providers in your area. For nationwide companies that prefer to source services through a single vendor, we can on-charge the services from our network, ensuring consistent and reliable service across all locations.
We can provide on-site testing, bringing our expertise directly to your location to ensure minimal disruption to your operations. Alternatively, you can bring your machines to our facility, where our skilled technicians will conduct thorough testing and tagging. Whether at your site or ours, we guarantee the same high level of service and adherence to safety standards, ensuring your equipment is compliant and safe to use.
New Zealand law dictates how long a tag remains valid before a new test and tag are required. Please be aware that a current test tag does not guarantee the appliance or machine is safe; it only indicates that it was deemed safe at the time of testing. Always exercise visual situational awareness before using an electrical appliance.
