2.1 Types

  These Rules apply to 3 types of cabling work:
 (a) open cabling work;
 (b) restricted cabling work; and
 (c) lift cabling work.

2.2 Open cabling work

  Open cabling work is cabling work (including aerial, underground, structured, coaxial and optical fibre cabling work on private or public property) in which the customer cabling that is used, terminates or connects at the network boundary on a socket, a network termination device or a main distribution frame.

2.3 Restricted cabling work

 (1) Subject to subsection (2), the following cabling work is restricted cabling work:
 (a) cabling work (including aerial, underground, and broadband (data and coaxial) cabling work on private property):
 (i) that is performed only in relation to a customer's premises; and
 (ii) in which the electrical supply voltage does not exceed typical domestic single-phase and three-phase electrical supply voltages; and
 (iii) in which the customer cabling that is used terminates at the network boundary on a socket or network termination device;
 (b) cabling work in which customer cabling is connected to customer equipment;
 (c) cabling work that meets each of the following criteria:
 (i) the work is performed only in relation to a customer's premises;
 (ii) the electrical supply voltage exceeds the typical domestic single‑phase and three-phase electrical supply voltages;
 (iii) the supply voltages are identifiable by every person performing the cabling work;
 (iv) the electrical power cables are inaccessible to any person performing the cabling work

Note 1   Domestic single-phase and three-phase electrical supply voltages are specified by the Australian Standard AS 60038-2012 Standard voltages or its replacement as existing from time to time.
