What to decide before the walls close. Print it for your builder and electrician.

  • Room use. Every room listed with how it will be used, and its classification agreed with clinicians and the electrician.
  • Equipment. The equipment list with supplier spec sheets: chairs, imaging, sterilisers, lasers, monitoring.
  • Switchboard. Space and capacity for the 10 mA RCDs and the new circuits, with room to grow.
  • Dedicated circuits. Separate circuits for chairs, imaging and sterilisers to each supplier’s spec.
  • Outlets and signage. Protected outlets identified, the green sign at each door, cleaners’ outlets outside the clinical circuits.
  • Sign-off booked. Your state’s certificate, and any inspection or audit, booked into the builder’s programme.
  • Handover pack. Certificates, AS/NZS 3003 test results and the next test date, kept with your compliance files.
  • First retest. Booked within 12 months of handover.
