Why office appliance testing is a compliance requirement
Office equipment is often assumed to be low risk simply because it's used indoors in a controlled environment, but AS/NZS 3760 doesn't exempt offices from testing requirements. Electrical faults can develop in any equipment over time, regardless of how gently it's used.
For businesses that lease office space, testing records are also often requested by landlords or building managers as part of broader building compliance.
