Regulation 28 of the Gas Standards (Gasfitting and Consumer Gas Installations) Regulations 1999 (the Regulations) requires a registered gasfitter to attach an approved badge or label in an approved place on completion of the gasfitting work. Sub-regulation 28 (6) provides for the Director of Energy Safety (the Director) to exempt a registered gasfitter from this requirement in a particular case or class of case. The following policy is effective from 16 April 2018.
The Director has determined that sub-regulation (2) does not apply if:
- an eNotice is submitted; and
- the gas installation, domestic or commercial, is supplied with natural gas.
For clarity, an approved badge is still required to be attached in accordance with sub-regulation 28 (2) to an installation in the following cases:
- if a paper-based Notice of Completion is submitted;
- all LP Gas installations (domestic, commercial and industrial);
- all industrial natural gas installations;
- marine craft;
- caravans;
- mobile catering installations; and
- LP Gas, Forklift, CNG, and LNG mobile vehicle installations.
