Victorian Consolidated Regulations Victorian Consolidated Regulations(1) This regulation applies in relation to a maintenance determination that specifies the frequency and type of inspection, testing and maintenance required for an essential safety measure in a building or place of public entertainment.
(2) Despite regulation 216, if a maintenance determination specifies that the essential safety measure must be maintained in accordance with AS 1851—2005 Maintenance of fire protection systems and equipment published on 5 September 2005, as in force and as issued from time to time, or an equivalent standard published before 5 September 2005, compliance with AS 1851—2012 is taken to be compliance with the frequency and type of inspection, testing and maintenance requirements specified in the maintenance determination (if applicable).
(3) If the owner of the building or place of public entertainment, in accordance with subregulation (2), complies with AS 1851—2012 in relation to the essential safety measure, instead of the frequency and type of inspection, testing and maintenance required for the essential safety measure specified in the maintenance determination, the owner must continue to comply with AS 1851—2012 in relation to the essential safety measure.
