Electrical and fire safety compliance

Electrical and fire safety compliance

There are a number of procedures in place to ensure that all business operations are both lawful and compliant with important safety regulations.

Generators

You will need to submit an application to Electricity Services in order to operate the following generators:

  • A standby or backup generator
  • A small-scale embedded generator that is synchronised with the City’s electrical network

Find out how to apply and access the relevant forms by visiting City Connect.

Open burning

If you would like to conduct an open burn of any material on any land or premises, you will need to apply for a permit from the City.

Fire safety inspections

Business premises are required to comply with the minimum fire safety standards and, if applicable, the regulations associated with the storage of dangerous goods such as LP gas.

You can request a fire safety inspection using the process outlined below.  

For more information on the safe and legal storage of LP gas, please visit our page on gas safety.
