About this template
A permit for the rare job where a licensed electrical worker must work on or near energised equipment. It records the steps the Electrical Safety Regulation 2026 requires: the reason it cannot be de-energised, a recorded risk assessment, a SWMS, testing, a safety observer and authorisation. It says plainly that the Regulation does not require a permit and that this form is the business’s own system.
