Comtest Group is a compliance specialist with over 40 years of experience (founded 1982), headquartered in South Melbourne, VIC. They are primarily a compliance management, certification body, and testing coordination company rather than an in-house EMC testing laboratory. Their own NATA-accredited laboratory covers electrical safety, energy efficiency, and calibration testing, but for EMC they arrange testing through partner laboratories in Melbourne, Sydney, Taiwan, and China, then manage the test reports and documentation. They are accredited by JAS-ANZ as an independent Australian certification body under the Communications Equipment Certification Scheme (AS/NZS ISO/IEC 17065), and hold NATA accreditation (AS ISO/IEC 17025) for calibration and safety testing. Comtest is also the fastest independent certifier on the Australian market per their own description.

What Melbourne labs typically run
IT, lighting, and industrial controls dominate weekday CISPR 32 and IEC 61000 schedules. Medical and scientific instruments add 60601 or 61326 questions. Automotive and rail suppliers appear when a Victorian plant needs a local pre-scan before an overseas OEM lab. Conducted emissions on imported power supplies is the usual first-fail story.
Choosing a Melbourne facility
Read the suburb on the profile—drive time across the southeast is not trivial with a crate. Ask for NATA scope pages. Confirm whether FCC limit lines can be collected in the same setup if you also sell in the US. Door height matters for industrial racks.
