ELECTRICAL SAFETY
BULLETINS
Electrical Safety Bulletins from
WorkCover NSW explain what
Residual Current Devices (RCD) are
and when they must be used. This
relates to changes in the RCD laws
that entered a transitional phase on
January 1, 2012 and take effect from
January 1, 2013. This may affect your
test and tagging regime, your work
place and maybe how you hire out
equipment.
CONVENTION 2013
MAY 8 - MAY 9
It is time to break from the traditional
format for the Convention, so in 2013
we will be taking over Luna Park in
Sydney on Wednesday, May 8 and
Thursday, May 9. There will be no
Equipment in Action Day, but there
will be an Indoor / Outdoor Expo
utilising the unique attraction of Luna
Park and its proximity to the Harbour
Bridge and Sydney Harbour. This will
be a fantastic opportunity to display
EWPs with a great backdrop.
