Brisbane RCD Testing and Installation Services
Industrial Power and Automation’s RCD Testing Brisbane team shares over three decades of experience and have been helping commercial and industrial clients with essential testing of electrical hubs.
Our Brisbane commercial electricians use the latest technology to provide not only safe environments but also efficient and cost-effective solutions.
What is RCD (Residual Current Device) testing and why is it important?
As the hub through which all electrical systems run, an RCD (residual current device) that is not installed correctly or is not properly maintained can become a serious safety hazard.
To ensure that your commercial facility meets the requirements of the Queensland Electrical Safety Regulation, safety switches, including RCDs, need to be tested at intervals according to the type of work they are used for. In most cases, RCDs need to be tested every 6 months, except for construction work, which requires a Push-button user test every month. For more information on testing intervals, please don’t hesitate to get in touch with us.
At IPA Solutions, we provide RCD inspection services in Brisbane to help you maintain a safe and reliable electrical system. Our team of experienced professionals can help you ensure that your RCD is installed correctly and tested regularly to prevent any potential hazards.
