Document background
The Electrical Completion Certificate is a mandatory document required under Australian electrical safety regulations and standards. It must be issued upon completion of any significant electrical work, including new installations, major modifications, or substantial repairs. The certificate serves multiple purposes: it confirms compliance with AS/NZS 3000:2018 and other relevant standards, provides evidence of safety testing, details the scope of work completed, and serves as a record for regulatory authorities, insurance providers, and property owners. The document is particularly crucial for obtaining occupancy permits, insurance coverage, and demonstrating due diligence in maintaining electrical safety standards. In the Australian jurisdiction, licensed electrical contractors are legally required to provide this certificate to clients and relevant authorities upon completion of work.
