AS/NZS 4836:2023 Safe Working on or near Low-Voltage and Extra-Low Voltage Electrical Installations and Equipment 6.6-6.7: 6.6 and 6.7 Other excavation risks and cutting underground cables

The site risk assessment must also consider excavation and pit hazards (depth and shoring, hollows, pits and sumps that collect toxic fumes, with air monitoring and confined space entry where needed), traffic, poor ventilation, high temperature and induced voltage or transferred earth potential (equipotential bonding or insulation methods may be needed). Cables and wiring enclosures must be positively identified before any cutting starts; relevant authorities may add requirements such as no go zones.
