What is electrical work?
Electrical work means: connecting electricity supply wiring to electrical equipment or disconnecting electricity supply wiring from electrical equipment; or manufacturing, constructing, installing, removing, adding, testing, replacing, repairing, altering or maintaining electrical equipment or an electrical installation. Examples of electrical work: Installing low voltage electrical wiring in a building Installing electrical equipment into an installation coupler or interconnecter Replacing a low voltage electrical component of a washing machine Maintaining an electricity entity’s overhead distribution system.
ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS
Electricity has become such a necessity that you don’t even realize it’s there until it’s gone. From operating the lights to configuring a computer network, these mechanical services are necessary to create durable and effective electrical systems that can distribute power to all your utilities without causing a power surge. To prevent electrical issues, modern systems include preventative protection measures such as circuit breakers, GFI outlets, and arc fault interrupters, just in case your electrical systems should come into contact with water or something goes awry.
What does electrical equipment mean?
Electrical equipment means any apparatus, appliance, cable, conductor, fitting, insulator, material, meter or wire that is used for controlling, generating, supplying, transforming or transmitting electricity at a voltage greater than extra low voltage or is operated by electricity at a voltage greater than extra-low voltage. Note: Electrical equipment does not include equipment is part of a unit of the vehicle that provides propulsion for the vehicle; or the electricity source for the equipment is a unit of the vehicle. Examples of things that are not electrical equipment include the headlights of a vehicle and the ignition spark plugs of a motor vehicle. However interior lighting or a socket outlet in a caravan or a refrigeration unit in a food delivery vehicle, if connected to or operated by a low voltage supply are not prevented from being electrical equipment.
What does practising as an Electrical Engineer mean?
Practising professional engineer means a registered professional engineer who carries out, or is responsible for the carrying out of, professional engineering services. Professional engineering service means an engineering service that requires, or is based on, the application of engineering principles and data to a design, or to a construction, production, operation or maintenance activity, relating to engineering, and does not include an engineering service that is provided only in accordance with a prescriptive standard.
