Electrical Code of Practice for Electrical Safety Apparatus and Materials 1993 (NZECP 3:1993)

Electrical Code of Practice for Electrical Safety of Fittings and Electrical Appliances 1995 (NZECP 3:1995)

The purpose of this notice is to advise that I intend to apply to the Minister of Energy after 1 month from the date of publication of this notice, for his approval—

To revoke the current Electrical Code of Practice for Electrical Safety Apparatus and Materials 1993 (NZECP 3:1993); and

To the proposed new Electrical Code of Practice for Electrical Safety of Fittings and Electrical Appliances 1995 (NZECP 3:1995).

The method for replacing NZECP 3:1993 with NZECP 3:1995 is for the Secretary of Commerce to issue a revocation of NZECP 3:1993 and issue NZECP 3:1995. Before the revocation of NZECP 3:1993 takes effect, and before NZECP 3:1995 has force or effect, the Minister of Energy must have approved both the revocation and the new Code under section 38 of the Electricity Act 1992 (“the Act”). Any approval by the Minister of the revocation of NZECP 3:1993, and of the new NZECP 3:1995, will take place at least 1 month after this notice is given.

Accordingly I advise that—

On the 12th day of October 1995, and acting pursuant to section 36 of the Act—

I issued the Electrical Code of Practice for Electrical Safety of Fittings and Electrical Appliances 1995 (NZECP 3:1995); and

I issued the intended revocation of Electrical Code of Practice for Electrical Safety Apparatus and Materials 1993 (NZECP 3:1993); and

I intend to apply to the Minister of Energy for his approval for NZECP 3:1995 and for the revocation of NZECP 3:1993.

Comments are requested from any interested parties on both the revocation of NZECP 3:1993 and the content of NZECP 3:1995. Any necessary amendments arising from those comments will be incorporated prior to gaining the Minister’s approval.

Copies of the Code may be obtained from The Chief Electrical Inspector’s Office, Sixth Floor, Ministry of Commerce Building, 33 Bowen Street, Wellington, or P.O. Box 1473, Wellington.

Comments should be received at this address by the 19th day of January 1996.

Dated at Wellington this 30th day of November 1995.

HOWARD FANCY, Secretary of Commerce.
