UPDATED : Service and Installation Rules v8.2
TasNetworks Service & Installation Rules v8.2 is effective from 1 July, 2022
(Version 7 is no longer valid and has been removed from the website)
After some feedback from the industry and TasNetworks staff, we have made a few minor changes which means the current version is now v8.2. Any references to v8.1 in previous communications will also apply to v8.2.
Changes to SIR v8.2
Appendix G – added.
To help further define Electrical Contractors Responsibilities around private works (ie. work that TasNetworks is not permitted to perform) we have added diagrams for various scenarios within 'Appendix G'.
This will help to clarify what the responsibilities of TasNetworks and the Electrical Contractor are.
Section 4.5 : Distribution Network Availability – clarification and update of wording.
Feedback from industry has seen the requirements revert back to the same wording as was in version 7 for;
- 4.5.2 Requirement to Install a TasNetworks’ Service Pole.
- 4.5.3 Requirement to Install Private Service Poles.
Please ensure you are always referring to the current version of SIR. This is available via the TasNetworks Website.
Distribution Network Charges
Our distribution network charges have updated for the 22/23 financial year.
These documents are all listed on the TasNetworks Website, the ‘2022-23 Ancillary Services - Fee Based Services Application and Price Guide’ being most relevant to EC’s and basic customer connections.
Please make yourself familiar with these changes to fees (including Tee-Ups). One to make note of is the increase to ‘B14 & 15 : Crossover pole, underground supply, pole mounted fuse(s)’.
Don’t hesitate to use the ‘tell us your ideas’ tab if you have any feedback in regards to these documents or you have topics you would like to hear more about.
