Scope This procedure applies to the use, maintenance and inspections of all electrical plant, equipment, furniture and fittings and installations at Crown. 3. Definitions Competent Persons (Licensed Electrical persons) Electrical Work Electrical Installation Electrical Equipment EnergySafe Victoria (ESV) Live Portable Appliance Test (PAT) Residual Current Device (RCD) Prescribed Electrical Ins tallation Non Prescribed E lectrical A person that is licensed or certified as competent under legislation to perform that work, or An apprentice that is working under supervision Includes all work involving construction, repair or maintenance on electrical installations or equipment Is the electricity supply to a building, and includes the main switchboard, distribution boards, sub-switchboards and all associated fixed wiring to isolation switches or socket outlets. Is an electricity consuming device or apparatus (including the cable) that is connected to the electrical installation. Classifications include: Hand-held / Portable: appliance which is hand held while in operation or can be moved easily while connected to the supply, intended to be held in the hand during normal use and the electrical motor forms an integral part of the equipment. (Excludes battery operated equipment). Movable: an appliance that can be moved readily from one place to another by unplugging from a general purpose outlet, but that is not moved during operation. Example: computer, printer etc. Fixed / Stationary: an appliance which in normal use is fastened to a support or otherwise secured in a specific position or is of such a size or function as to be difficult or unlikely to be moved from one place to another. Example: workshop machinery, oven, refrigerator etc Energy Safe Victoria is Victoria s statutory independent electricity, gas and pipeline safety and technical regulator. Working on or near exposed electrical conductors or circuit parts that are or can become energised because electrical power to the working equipment or system has not been shutdown. A process by which electrical appliances are routinely checked for safety and undertaken by a trained person in accordance with AS/NZS 3760 In service safety inspection and testing of electrical equipment. A device which switches off electricity supply when an imbalance is detected between any current flowing in the active and neutral leads and earth leads. Work on all or part of any electrical installations if they are ordinarily operated at low voltage or a voltage exceeding low voltage (refer to Prescribed and Non Prescribed installation work C) Is work other than listed as prescribed electrical installation work. E.g. this does Page 1 of 11
