RCD Compliance AUDIT

  • A Qualified Electrician must conduct the hazard inspection as follows: 1. For EVERY inspection requirement, indicate the item as Compliant (C), Non-Compliant (NC) or Not Applicable (N/A) 2. For every non-compliance identified, provide the location and a description in the comments section. 3. Enter defects or non-compliances in the applicable site registers, i.e. electrical equipment defects must be entered into the Electrical Register 4. At inspection completion, discuss the non-conformances with the Site/Department Manager and determine an action, completion date and responsible person 5. Forward the completed inspection to the WHS Department

Asset/Panel Particulars

  • Asset/Panel ID number?

  • Asset/Panel Description?

  • Take a photo of the Asset/Panel

  • Complete Residual Current Device Compliance Section for each individual circuit or equipment

  • Residual Current Device Compliance
  • Are subcircuits or electrical equipment fitted with residual current devices?

  • Does the sub circuit/electrical equipment require RCD protection? Refer to AS3000 section 2.6.3.2.3.3 Requirements for additional Protection

  • State Reason for not requiring RCD protection

  • 2.6.3.2.3.3 Requirements for additional protection
    Additional protection by RCDs with a maximum rated residual current of 30 mA shall be provided for final subcircuits with a rating not exceeding
    32 A supplying—
    (a) socket-outlets; or
    (b) lighting; or
    (c) direct connected hand-held electrical equipment, e.g. directly connected tools; or
    (d) direct connected electrical equipment that represents an increased risk of electric shock.
    Factors that may represent an increased risk of electric shock include but are not limited to—
    (i) external influences (refer Clause 1.5.14); and
    (ii) type of electrical installation and processes being conducted
    (e.g. workshops and particular industrial activities).
    NOTE: For all other final subcircuits with a rating not exceeding 32 A for direct connected equipment, additional protection by RCDs with a maximum rated residual current of 30 mA should be considered.

  • Please provide details of RCD requirements? Style,Type, Amp Rating, Circuit ID

  • 2.6.3.2.3.2 Location of RCD protection
    Where protection of final subcircuits is required, RCDs shall be installed at the switchboard at which the final subcircuit originates.
    Exception: Where the wiring system is installed with additional mechanical protection against mechanical damage, complying with the requirements of Clause 3.9.4.4(a) or Clause 3.9.4.4(b), the RCD protection specifically intended for the protection of that socket-outlet or direct connected electrical equipment can be installed at, or adjacent to the socket-outlet or direct connected electrical equipment (e.g. factory).
