This Standard provides safety rules for optical fibre communication systems and associated materials and equipment.

Adopts ISO/IEC14763-3:2014 to specify systems and methods for the inspection and testing of installed optical fibre cabling designed in accordance with premises cabling standards including ISO/IEC11801, ISO/IEC24764, ISO/IEC24702 and ISO/IEC15018.

AS/NZS 3084:2017 is amended as follows.

Provides specific guidance to architects, planners, designers, engineers, builders, installers, maintenance personnel, building owners, managers and users in the planning and installation of physical pathways and spaces in and between buildings to accommodate the equipment and cabling infrastructure necessary for communications; to the extent that this is not adequately covered for Australian and New Zealand purposes in AS/NZSISO/IEC 14763.2:2014.

This Standard adopts ISO/IEC 14763-2:2019 with modifications for Australia and New Zealand, which specify requirements for the planning, installation and operation of telecommunications cabling and cabling infrastructures including cabling, pathways, spaces and telecommunications bonds (other than that specified in AS 30129) in support of generic cabling standards and associated documents.

The objective of this Standard specifies requirements that are common to the other parts of the AS/NZS 11801 series or ISO/IEC 11801 series. Cabling specified by this Standard supports a wide range of services including voice, data, and video that may also incorporate the supply of power.

The NSW Guide to Standards and Tolerances 2017 (the Guide) has been developed for builders and building owners to use as a convenient reference to the minimum technical standards and quality of work.

From 1 July 2021, Design and Building Practitioners working on class 2 buildings need to register under a new Compliance Declaration Scheme.

Under these changes, designs, declarations and other documents must be lodged on the NSW Planning Portal at key stages throughout the construction process.

There are 18 classes of registration for Design Practitioners, select from the list to review the eligibility criteria and determine which class you should apply for.
