Legacy Electrical

Electrical Compliance, Safety Regulations and Electrical Standards

Legacy Electrical’s team comprises trained and experienced New Zealand Electrical Inspectors, equipped to perform a variety of electrical inspections for your business or organisation. We adhere strictly to New Zealand Government legislation standards, such as The Electricity (Safety) Regulations 2010 (SR 2010/36), and follow the safety guidelines promoted by the Electrical Workers Registration Board.

Ensuring Compliance with Electrical Standards

As electrical compliance specialists, Legacy Electrical knows which standards apply to each type of electrical work, ensuring ongoing compliance for Auckland businesses. From installation to inspection and testing, we adhere to the New Zealand Wiring Rules (AS/NZS3000:2007) and are familiar with key standards such as AS/NZS 5761, 5762, and 3760.

Testing and Tagging for Appliance Safety

NZS3760 outlines in-service testing and repairs of appliances, a standard required for electrical safety. Regulation 26 of the Electricity (Safety) Regulations 2010 states, “Appliances are deemed electrically safe if they have a current test tag issued in accordance with NZS 3760.” Legacy Electrical’s Testing and Tagging services can verify your appliances’ safety, helping your business remain compliant.

Regular Appliance Testing for Businesses

For employers, ensuring that appliances are regularly maintained and tested is not just good practice—it’s essential. Failing to test appliances can be seen as “reckless behaviour” under New Zealand law, and could lead to denial of insurance claims or even prosecution by Worksafe NZ in the event of an accident.

Wiring Audits and Inspections for Commercial Premises

Routine electrical wiring audits and testing are vital for Auckland’s commercial, industrial, and retail spaces. The Health and Safety in Employment Act 1992 mandates that “Employers must take all practicable steps to ensure plant is maintained and safe to use.” Legacy Electrical offers comprehensive wiring audits and inspection services, giving you peace of mind.

Protect Your Business with Reliable Electrical Compliance Services

Electrical compliance is crucial for Auckland employers, with large fines imposed for non-compliance. Legacy Electrical can assist with your compliance needs under the Health and Safety in Employment Act 1992, the Electricity Act 1992, and the Electricity (Safety) Regulations 2010.
