Outlines principles, guidelines and procedures for safe work on or near low-voltage and extra-low voltage electrical installations and equipment; provides a minimum set of procedures, safety requirements and recommendations to manage the hazards associated with electricity, specifically arc blast, arc flash, electric shock, and electrocution.

The objective of this Standard specifies generic cabling within premises that comprise single or multiple buildings on a campus; it covers balanced cabling and optical fibre cabling.

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 a standard format for cabling requirements used in tender and construction drawings; provides basic specifications for identification and recording of components, during design and at the time of installation in order to aid in the administration of application, maintenance and reconfiguration of telecommunications cabling infrastructure.

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.

Sets out requirements for electrical installations associated with marinas supplied at low-voltage a.c. supply systems (i.e. exceeding 50 V a.c. but not exceeding 1000 V a.c.

Specifies safety requirements for electrical installations in areas where it is intended that low-voltage medical electrical equipment will be used on a patient; it applies to new electrical installations and to alterations, additions and repairs of existing electrical installations.

Specifies requirements for the design, construction and installation of electrical systems in boats that have a length of up to 50 m, and are designed for use on inland waters or at sea.
