Specifies procedures for the safety inspection and testing of low voltage single phase and polyphase electrical equipment, connected to the electrical supply by a flexible cord or connecting device.

Sets out requirements for electrical installations associated with site supplies for connectable electrical installations that are intended for connection to low voltage a.c. supply systems (i.e. exceeding 50 V a.c. but not exceeding 1 000 V a.c.).

Specifies requirements for electrical installations associated with connectable electrical installations used for the purposes of accommodation, habitation or other residential, commercial purposes or recreational uses that are intended for connection to external low voltage a.c. supply systems (i.e. 50 V a.c. to 1000 V a.c.) by either a detachable supply lead or a supply lead directly connected to the connectable electrical installation; includes requirements and provides guidance for the installation of extra-low voltage systems (i.e. less than 50 V a.c. or 120 V d.c. ripple free).

Contains Deemed-to-Satisfy Provisions that are considered to be acceptable forms of construction that meet the requirements for complying with Parts H1 to H8 of NCC Volume Two.

Sets out a method for cable selection for those types of electrical cables and methods of installation that are in common use at working voltages up to and including 0.6/1 kV at 50 Hz a.c.

Provides practical guidance for those who have duties or obligations to communicate occupational health and safety matters in appropriate languages in workplaces under the Occupational Health and Safety Act 2004 (OHS Act) and Occupational Health and Safety Regulations 2017 (OHS Regulations).

The national workplace exposure standard for respirable crystalline silica has been halved from an eight hour time-weighted average airborne concentration of 0.1 milligrams per cubic metre (mg/m3) to 0.05 mg/m3; this new workplace exposure standard takes effect in Queensland from 1 July 2020.

Silicosis is preventable by using proper controls to eliminate or minimise expo sure to respirable crystalline silica dust in the workplace.
