Test report

Test date and safety test results on the NSW CCEW

Record the tests you actually did on site before you sign the cert. Tick a test only if you performed it to AS/NZS 3000 with calibrated gear.

Test date and timing

The test date is mandatory and must reflect when safety tests were actually performed:

Select test date

Use the calendar picker or quick buttons ("Yesterday", "Today") to set the test date.

Timing considerations

All tests should be completed before certifying the installation to ensure accurate reporting.

Plan testing as the final step before energisation to capture the installation's true condition.

The picker typically allows roughly one year before and after today — pick the actual test date, not the certificate issue date unless they coincide.

Mandatory safety tests

All applicable tests must be completed and documented. Use "Check All" to select all tests, or choose individual tests as required:

Electrical safety tests

Earthing system integrity

Verifies main earthing conductor continuity and connections. Essential for safety device operation during electrical faults.

Residual current device operational

Confirms RCDs and safety switches trip within required timeframes. Critical for life-saving protection.

Installation verification tests

Insulation resistance (MΩ)

Measures conductor insulation quality. Minimum 1 MΩ required to prevent current leakage and electrical shock hazards.

Visual check suitability of installation

Comprehensive visual inspection confirming correct equipment installation, environmental compliance, AS/NZS 3000 Wiring Rules compliance, and no visible damage or defects.

Polarity verification

Ensures correct active, neutral, and earth connections throughout the installation. Prevents dangerous cross-connections.

Specialised system tests

Stand-alone system compliance

Verifies off-grid or isolated power systems comply with AS4509 standards for safety and performance requirements.

Connection integrity

Verifies secure terminations in switchboards and equipment to prevent fire hazards from loose connections.

Fault loop impedance

Measures fault current path impedance to confirm protective device effectiveness. Required when necessary to ensure adequate fault current for timely protection operation.

All tests must be performed according to AS/NZS 3000 and relevant Australian Standards using calibrated test equipment.

Record values from your test instruments, not rounded guesses. Regulators and customers may compare readings to site reports.
