General

This Standard sets out the requirements for electrical installations associated with transportable structures and vehicles 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.).

For the purposes of this Standard the term ‘transportable structure' includes both vehicles and structures with or without wheels that can readily be moved from one site to another either under their own motive power or by some other means.

This Standard includes additional requirements to those detailed in AS/NZS 3000 for the electrical wiring of transportable structures and for any electrical installations intended to provide a low voltage supply for transportable structures by a supply lead or detachable connection that can be connected by unskilled persons. Such installations include those in caravan parks and camping areas with powered sites but exclude those in fairgrounds and temporary camping sites, which are subject to the requirements of AS/NZS 3002, and those in construction and demolition sites, which are subject to the requirements of AS/NZS 3012.
