AS/NZS 4836 – 2023 Edition – Safe working on or near low-voltage and extra-low voltage electrical installations and equipment

AS 4836 outlines principles, guidelines and procedures for safe work by electrical and non-electrical workers on or near low-voltage and extra-low voltage electrical installations and equipment. It provides a minimum set of guidelines, procedures, safety requirements and recommendations to manage the hazards associated with electricity, specifically arc blast, arc flash, electric shock, and electrocution. Adopting the requirements will provide a safe environment for work on or near low-voltage as well as for extra-low voltage electrical installations and equipment.

AS NZS 4836 covers general risk management and mitigation principles for determining the controls to be implemented to provide a safe working environment.

This document applies to all electrical and non-electrical workers carrying out work on or work near low-voltage and extra-low voltage electrical installations and equipment for both a.c. and d.c..

NOTE The general principles of AS4836 may be applied in the risk management of other voltages outside this range where specific procedures and documents are not available.

In New Zealand, these practices may also apply to work carried out on or near works.
