The Electricity (Licensing) Regulations 1991 specify licensing requirements for electrical workers and contractors. Regulation 19 prohibits electrical work being carried out by non-licensed persons.
An electrician’s training licence is issued to a person upon entering an electrical apprenticeship, or an electrical pre-apprenticeship course, or a special tripartite VET arrangement where an electrical apprenticeship is offered to VET students successfully completing a specific training program.
