Compliance in Australia can be complex and legislative requirements change from state to state, U.S.E. is a leader in providing compliance solutions for our clients.

Having a fundamental understanding of Australian Standards allows U.S.E to provide a niche solution to our clients. We identified through experience many consultants providing expensive adherence advice for compliance to Australian Standards whilst inexpensive and ‘do-nothing’ solutions had not been discussed.

Our unique skill set reviews compliance to AS3000 part 1, reviewing fundamental principles for your existing or proposed infrastructure benefits your capital expenditure greatly. Some examples are below:

– Voltage Utilisation – We have had clients experience the benefit of assessing voltage utilisation for end circuits compared to the AS3000 Part 2 allowable voltage drop of 5% or 7%.

– Fault Protection – With a fundamental understanding of Automatic Disconnection of Supply, we can achieve fault loop compliance in the LV MEN system based on fully traceable analysis and verification allowing certification where typical industry supplied software has reached its limits.

– Maximum Demand – Performing calculations based on operating plant or typical load factors we can achieve significant savings in cable sizing and utility compliance. This is particularly evident in the approach for neutral sizing in submains.
