Is power tool testing required by law?

While specific regulations vary, many industrial facilities and work sites in NSW are required to ensure all power tools are safe to use with the help of an accredited technician. Regular testing is the recommended way to comply with these safety regulations and prevent potential liabilities. Contact our team on 0491 726 810 for advice about whether power tool testing is compulsory for your business.

How often should power tools be tested?

The frequency of testing depends on the environment and the way the tool is used. High-risk environments such as construction, mining, and demolition, typically require testing every three months; while in low-risk environments annual compliance testing is sufficient.

Our team can provide specific recommendations based on your circumstances, and after our first visit, we will schedule regular reminders so you don’t have to worry about when your next test is due.

What are the signs that a power tool needs testing?

Signs that a power tool needs testing include inconsistent performance, unusual noises, overheating while in use, or visible damage. If a tool is heavily used or has been in service for a long time, testing it every three months will ensure the safety of your team and keep your business compliant with regulations.
