NS158: Labelling of Mains and Apparatus
This Network Standard supersedes the document ‘Rules for Labelling Mains and Apparatus’ issued by the Sydney Electricity System Control Branch, dated June 1994. The labelling principles and the application of labelling principles from that document remain substantially unaltered in this document. Additional information has been included on labelling materials, fixings and positioning.
Scope
This Network Standard applies to all electricity works in Ausgrid’s network which are required to be labelled in accordance with the Code of Practice for Electricity Transmission and Distribution Asset Management (Asset Code), subject to the exception indicated in the Ausgrid Safety and Operating Plan.
Where changes are made to this network standard, the revised labelling requirements apply from that point in time onwards. The decision to retrospectively apply any changes to labelling requirements will be made by the appropriate manager with due consideration to safety and other operational requirements
