    Authorised person request form

    Important: Authorised Person request form has changed

    Our Authorised Person request form has changed to a single entry (name) per application. This is to enable us to assign a specific number to an individual Authorised Person. This in turn will allow us to process the applications in a more efficient manner and differentiate between an initial application or a renewal.

    Please also ensure that the Applicant Details section relates to the person who is applying to be an authorised person, not the person submitting the form.

    We appreciate your understanding and cooperation during this transition period.

    To request approval for an Authorised Person (Electrical) or Authorised Person (Non-Electrical), please complete the form below.

    All applicants must have the required competencies outlined in the form below to work near our electricity network.

    Once submitted, you'll receive a confirmation email that your form has been received by us and we'll process your request in around 7 business days. This may take longer if the correct training evidence certificate is not attached below for each applicant.

    Please view our privacy statement regarding the collection of data.

    Required fields are marked with an asterisk (*).
