Essential Services Audits

At ARA Electrical Services, we provide thorough essential services audits to ensure your critical systems operate reliably and adhere to Australian standards.

Our audits cover key areas including emergency lighting systems, test and tag services, RCD testing, thermography, and other essential services, delivering detailed assessments to maintain safety and compliance.

Our essential services audit includes:

  • Emergency Lighting Systems: Inspecting and auditing emergency lighting systems to ensure they function correctly and meet the requirements of Australian Standard AS2293 (Emergency Lighting and Exit Signs for Buildings). This includes testing battery backup systems, verifying light levels, and ensuring proper operation during emergency conditions.
  • Test and Tag Services: Conducting systematic testing and tagging of electrical appliances and equipment to ensure safety and compliance with Australian Standard AS/NZS 3760 (In-service safety inspection and testing of electrical equipment). This involves checking for electrical faults, verifying insulation resistance, and ensuring equipment meets safety standards.
  • RCD Testing: Performing comprehensive testing of Residual Current Devices (RCDs) to ensure their proper operation and compliance with Australian Standard AS/NZS 3760. This includes verifying that RCDs trip at the correct residual current levels, ensuring effective protection against electric shock, and testing their performance under fault conditions.
  • Thermography: Utilising infrared thermography for non-contact thermal inspections of electrical systems and equipment. This technique identifies hot spots, potential electrical faults, and overheating issues that may not be visible to the naked eye, helping to prevent equipment failures and enhance safety.
  • Compliance with Standards: Ensuring that all essential services comply with relevant Australian standards and regulations, including AS/NZS 3000 (Electrical Installations) and other applicable safety and performance guidelines.
  • Risk Assessment and Recommendations: Conducting detailed risk assessments to identify potential issues or non-compliance with standards. We provide actionable recommendations and solutions to address any concerns and enhance the reliability and safety of your essential services.
  • Documentation and Reporting: Delivering comprehensive audit reports detailing our findings, recommendations, and compliance status. These reports support regulatory compliance, assist in maintaining safety records, and facilitate ongoing maintenance and safety planning.

Our experienced auditors employ advanced tools and techniques to ensure that all essential services are thoroughly evaluated and operate according to the highest standards of safety and performance.
