Staying on top of RCD testing can seem a bit daunting but it's really important for keeping your property safe. The good news is we're here to help! Here's the lowdown:

⚡ Commercial properties: How often you need RCD testing depends on a few things, like the type of building & the risk level. According to AS/NZS 3760, you'll need to do a quick push-button test every 6 months & a more thorough trip-time test every 2 years.

⚡ Homes: Energy Safe Victoria recommends that you should test your safety switches (which are like RCDs) every 3 months. This helps make sure they're always ready to protect you & your family.

Regular testing is key! Here's a little more about what that involves:

⚡ Tripping the RCD: We basically create a little electrical disturbance on purpose to check if your RCD can quickly shut off the power. This simulates a real-life fault & makes sure the RCD can react fast enough to keep you safe. There are specific speed requirements that we check against the Australian & New Zealand Standards.

⚡ Push-Button Test: This is a simpler test that you can actually do yourself every six months (though we're happy to do it for you too!). It's a quick & easy way to check if your RCD is working correctly.

⚡ Testing and Tagging: This is a more thorough test where we check all the functions of your RCD to make sure it's in top working order. We then attach a tag to show that it's been tested & when the next test is due. This is an important legal requirement to ensure your RCD is doing its job properly.
