Electrical work near energised electrical installations or services is explicitly classified as high-risk construction work under WHS Regulations s.291(k). This applies to electrical rough-in, switchboard work, solar panel installation, HVAC systems, and data cabling.

Our electrical/HVAC/solar SWMS pack is one of our largest with 19 documents covering electrical rough-in, switchboard installation and upgrade, solar panel mounting and connection, air conditioning installation, ventilation systems, data and communications cabling, and working in roof spaces. Each document addresses critical hazards including electrocution, arc flash, falls from height during solar and HVAC roof work, and working in confined ceiling spaces.

Electrical / HVAC / Solar SOP — Common Questions

What is the difference between a SOP and a SWMS?

A SOP provides step-by-step instructions for completing a task safely. A SWMS is a legal document specifically for high-risk construction work that focuses on hazard identification and risk control. SOPs are broader and apply to all tasks, not just HRCW.

Why do I need SOPs if I have SWMS?

SWMS only cover high-risk construction work. SOPs cover all tasks, including routine operations, equipment use, and procedures that don't qualify as HRCW but still need standardised safe practices.

Are your SOPs trade-specific?

Yes. Each SOP is written for specific trade activities, with relevant safety controls, PPE requirements, and references to applicable Australian Standards.
