A consistent record gives you a quick reference for service conversations and helps keep equipment information together. It can be a simple document or log kept by the people responsible for the equipment.
What to include
- Equipment name, location, manufacturer, and model where known.
- Installation or service dates and the work that was agreed and completed.
- Observations such as display messages, unusual behaviour, or visible changes.
- Relevant photos, reports, and contact details for the responsible site team.
Keep checks within the right scope
Follow the equipment manufacturer’s guidance and your site’s safety procedures. Visual record-keeping does not replace inspection by a qualified professional; do not open electrical enclosures or perform work beyond your training and authorisation.
