Occupational Safety and Health Regulations 1996
principally specify detailed requirements for risky 
or potentially hazardous work activities or hazardous situations, to ensure an adequate level of safety for 
workers and other persons in the vicinity of the work being performed. 
For example, the regulations specify certain safe work practices requirements for work in confined spaces, or 
for demolition work, or work involving asbestos products. There are many references to Australian 
Standards within the regulations, as a means of specifying acceptable benchmarks for potentially hazardous 
or risky work. For example, the manufacture of cranes is required to comply with relevant Australian 
Standards, and these include the electrical requirements for cranes. 
Generally however these regulations do not specify detailed requirements for the technical standards of 
electrical activities and equipment, as this is left to regulations under the 
Electricity Act 1945
. There are 
three exceptions set out in Division 6 - Electricity: 
(i) Regulation 3.59 requires the use of moulded (one part type) or transparent sockets/plugs when 
replacing LV damaged cords and plugs/sockets. 
(ii) Regulation 3.60 requires that normally hand-held, portable electrical equipment is to be connected to 
LV supply via permanently installed RCDs (residual current devices, also known as “safety 
switches”, which switch off when current leakage to earth exceeds a safe level), either at the socket 
outlet or at the switchboard. The regulation also requires that where persons are not satisfied that 
fixed RCDs have been installed then portable RCDs are to be used for connecting normally hand-
held, portable electrical equipment at workplaces.

(iii) Regulations 3.61, 3.62 & 3.63 deal with the use of electricity on construction and demolition sites, of 
which WorkSafe is the principal safety regulator. The principal requirements are that temporary 
electricity supplies and their use on such sites shall comply with AS/NZS 3012 and that portable 
electrical equipment and portable RCDs shall be tested and then tagged in accordance with the 
standard plus the specific requirements of regulation 3.62.
