What document should an electrical worker use to check if electrical equipment has been tested and inspected?

The service sticker affixed to the equipment provides crucial information about the testing and inspection status of that specific electrical equipment. It typically indicates when the last inspection or maintenance occurred, who performed it, and whether the equipment is safe for operation. This immediate and visual confirmation allows electrical workers to quickly ascertain the condition of the equipment before beginning work.

In contrast, a maintenance log may contain a historical record of all maintenance activities, but it may not provide real-time status of the equipment. An inspection report can offer detailed findings from an inspection, but it may not be readily accessible or affixed to the equipment for quick reference. A safety manual typically outlines procedures and safety protocols rather than specific status information on individual pieces of equipment. Therefore, the service sticker is the most effective tool for quickly verifying the testing and inspection history of electrical equipment.
