RCD Testing Services – Keep Your Property Safe and Compliant

At GT HVAC & Electrical, we provide accurate, reliable and fully compliant RCD testing for residential, commercial, and industrial properties across Melbourne, Victoria, and beyond. Our experienced and certified electricians conduct thorough residual current device (RCD) testing to help reduce the risk of electrocution, electrical fires, and power disruptions, ensuring your property, people, and equipment are protected at all times.

 

Whether you’re based in Melbourne, Yarra Valley, Mornington Peninsula, or regional Victoria, our RCD testing services are aligned with Australian Standards (AS/NZS 3760) and fully tailored to your site’s needs.

 

What Is RCD Testing?

RCDs (Residual Current Devices) are life-saving safety switches that detect current imbalances and disconnect power instantly to prevent injury or death from electric shocks. They typically activate within milliseconds, offering critical protection in homes, schools, construction sites, offices, and other workplaces.

 

RCDs must be tested regularly to confirm they’re functioning correctly. WorkSafe Victoria, Safe Work Australia, and OHS guidelines mandate routine testing to reduce risks and comply with electrical safety regulations.

 

Our RCD Testing Services Include:

  • Push-button testing and trip time measurement

  • Manual and automated testing cycles

  • Verification of disconnection times

  • Detailed test records and compliance documentation

  • Assessment of socket outlets and portable appliances

  • Fault detection and isolation of abnormalities

  • On-site reporting and rectification recommendations

We offer scheduled, monthly, six-monthly, or custom intervals based on your environment, equipment type, and risk level. Whether you’re managing a construction site, office, rental property, or hospital, we tailor our testing schedule to your exact needs.

 

Why Choose GT HVAC & Electrical for RCD Testing?

  • Qualified technicians with in-depth knowledge of AS/NZS 3760, AS/NZS 3012, and QBCC regulations

We work with builders, property managers, franchise owners, retailers, government bodies, and homeowners to implement effective, affordable, and customised RCD testing plans.

 

What Are the Benefits of Regular RCD Testing?

  • Minimises risk of electrical injuries, damage, or death

  • Protects appliances and systems from power surges or fluctuations

  • Ensures legal compliance with national and state-based regulations

  • Reduces business downtime and prevents workplace accidents

  • Safeguards your insurance eligibility

We also integrate RCD testing with PAT testing, smoke detector maintenance, and electrical inspections for a comprehensive safety solution.

 

How Often Should RCD Testing Be Done?

Testing frequency can vary depending on your environment and industry. For example:

  • Construction sites – every 3 months

  • Workplaces – every 6 to 12 months

  • Residential rental properties – as required under state tenancy laws

  • Healthcare and aged care – more frequently due to risk level

We provide tailored advice based on your property’s risk profile and compliance obligations.
