Electricity (Licensing) Regulations 1991

An application for the issue of a licence or permit must be —

made to the Board in the approved form; and

accompanied by —

unless subparagraph (ii) applies — the application fee in Schedule 1 item 1(a) and the registration fee in Schedule 1 item 1(b); or

if the application is for an electrician’s training licence — the application fee in Schedule 1 item 1(a).

An applicant under subregulation (1) is to include in or with the application any information or certificate or other document that the Board may require to be satisfied that the applicant fulfils the relevant requirements of regulation 22 and is a fit and proper person for the purposes of regulation 24(1).

An application for a licence or permit should normally specify the kind of endorsement sought in relation to a licence, but where an application is made for a particular grade or type of licence or permit that does not appear to the Board to be appropriate in the case of the applicant, or, where an applicant does not specify the particular licence, grade, type or permit to be endorsed the Board may grant a licence or permit endorsed for a grade or type that it thinks proper according to the qualifications and experience of the applicant.
