Northern Territory Numbered Regulations Northern Territory Numbered Regulations(1) To eliminate or minimise an electrical risk at a workplace, the person conducting a business or undertaking must, so far as is reasonably practicable, first do one or more of the following:
(a) substitute, in whole or in part, the hazard giving rise to the risk with something that gives rise to a lesser risk;
(b) isolate the hazard from any person exposed to it;
(c) implement engineering controls.
(2) If an electrical risk remains after complying with subregulation (1), the person must minimise the remaining risk by implementing administrative controls, so far as is reasonably practicable.
(3) If an electrical risk remains after complying with subregulation (2), the person must finally minimise the remaining risk by providing and ensuring the use of suitable personal protective equipment, so far as is reasonably practicable.
Note for regulation 7
A combination of the controls set out in this regulation may be used to minimise risks if a single control is not sufficient for the purpose.
