What is a Form 12 and when is it required?
A Form 12 Electrical Safety Certificate certifies that an electrical installation complies with the Queensland Electrical Safety Act 2002 and AS/NZS 3000. It must be issued before the installation can be energised. PLE issues a Form 12 on every project.
What is a Form 15 and when is it required?
A Form 15 certifies the electrical design. It is required when the installation has been designed by the subcontractor (D&C projects). PLE issues Form 15 certificates on all D&C subcontracts.
