Compliance testing of safety switches (also called RCDs) will start across the main campus on 4 January 2022.
This will involve ensuring that all switches are operating correctly and comply with relevant safety standards. Note that in completing these tests there will be very brief localised power outages of several minutes in the times specified in the program below.
To minimise impact, works have been scheduled at a quieter time for the University, and in many locations on a night shift program.
In preparation, please shut down any electrical equipment that you’re able to prior to the holiday break. If you have specific research equipment that is power-sensitive or needs to run 24/7, please contact Craig Brown via email at craig.brown@flinders.edu.au directly to ensure arrangements can be made to manage risks and arrange a mutually workable time for testing.
Please see the program below – we expect that the testing will be completed by 19 January.
