INCIDENTS • A new duplex development was connected to the network by a ASP L 2 with incorrect polarity of both of the dwellings. The services were both single phase. The ASP L 2 accepted the markings on the consumers mains by the electrical contractor. • A failure to test in compliance with Endeavour Energy procedure WSY 0037 resulted in the issuing of a major non-conformance and recommendation to the Dept of Industry that the ASP L 2 accreditation be withdrawn. • The implication in a worse case scenario would be that persons could be in contact with metallic parts of the installation with the possibility of a fatal shock. 11
NON CONFORMANCE • ASP L 2 are reminded of the requirement to submit data to the network within 2 days • A Major non conformance will be issued attracting 6 demerit points for late submission. • When 12 demerit points are accrued the ASP L 2 will be referred to the Dept. of Industry and the Endeavour Energy Authorisations group requesting suspension of the Accreditation / Authorisation. • As with all non conformances explanations and or reasoning for the non conformance will form part of investigations.
Installation Inspections / Audits / Defects • Endeavour Energy carries out a risked based inspection regime developed from the Code Of Practice Installation Safety Management. • Installations are inspected/audited by automatically selecting sites based on the submission of the CCEW / e. NOSW. The automated selection uses multiple criteria to determine if site is the be inspected /audited. • Defective installation work is notified on completion of the inspection / audit directly to the customer. This is accomplished by electronically drafting the defect notice and printing onsite using a mobile printer. This approach aligns with Fair Trading NSW belief that its the relationship between the customer and the installer of the works that is important and not the network. 13
