Testing performed using the microwave leakage limits defined in AS/NZS 60335.2.25.
Safety testing of commercial and workplace microwave ovens to detect excessive microwave radiation leakage and confirm safe electrical operation.
AS/NZS 60335.2.25 and AS/NZS 3760:2022
Microwave ovens are common in commercial kitchens and workplace staff rooms. Over time, worn door seals, damaged hinges, or warped enclosures can allow microwave radiation leakage. Liberty Test & Tag performs microwave leakage testing using professional detectors and applies the recognised leakage limits defined in AS/NZS 60335.2.25 alongside electrical safety testing under AS/NZS 3760.
We measure emissions around door seals, viewing screens, and enclosures. Testing measures microwave leakage against the recognised limit of 5 mW/cm² at approximately 5 cm from the oven surface.
Microwave leakage testing may be appropriate where an appliance is heavily used, has visible door or enclosure damage, has been dropped or repaired, or where testing forms part of a workplace maintenance or risk-management program.
We measure radiation emissions with precision instruments, identifying leaks before they pose health risks or compliance issues.
Systematic testing ensures accurate radiation leak detection.
Check door seals, hinges, latches, and screens for damage or wear.
Run microwave under load while scanning around door seals and enclosure joints using a professional microwave leakage detector.
Document emissions (mW/cm²) and determine pass/fail against 5 mW/cm² limit.
Apply label and provide compliance report with next test date.
Our microwave leakage detectors measure radiation emissions in mW/cm² around door seals, viewing windows, vents, and enclosure joints.
AS/NZS 60335.2.25 defines a recognised safety limit of ≤5 mW/cm² measured approximately 5 cm from the oven surface.
Liberty Test & Tag specializes in testing and compliance. If leakage or faults are identified, we provide a detailed report and recommend repair or replacement.
Microwave leakage testing uses the recognised leakage limits defined in AS/NZS 60335.2.25. Electrical safety testing under AS/NZS 3760 can separately assess applicable electrical safety requirements.
Workplace electrical and equipment risks should be managed according to the conditions in which equipment is used. Where microwave leakage testing is identified as an appropriate control, documented results provide evidence that the appliance was assessed against the applicable leakage limit.
