In the case of an electric shock, the following procedure must be followed

• Make the area safe 
• Notify Organiser & Security immediately 
• Venue will contact an inspector to examine the area and give clearance for area to be re-opened
  

All portable electrical equipment, appliances and leads used must be tested and tagged in accordance with the Workplace Health & Safety Regulations and Australian Standard 3760, 2001.

• Any electrical equipment found to be untagged MUST be tested and tagged or removed from the venue immediately. New equipment need not be inspected or tested but must be tagged with the re-test date prior to introduction to service. (AS/NZ 3760:2001,24.2)
• Power is to be split by power board. Double adapters are not permitted.
• Lights attached to arms must be 2.7m from the exhibition floor and at a 45 degree angle.

Electrical Safety Audit and Testing & Tagging of Electrical items/appliances.  

An approved official electrical test and tag contractor is responsible for ensuring all stands comply with Australian Standard 3760. They will conduct electrical inspections and audit each stand that places an order for power at all RX events.

Why has an official provider been appointed? 
In order to ensure that each event is as safe as possible and compliant with WH&S and venue regulations, RX recognised the need to appoint a company to perform an electrical safety audit at each event. This appointment also aims to provide a cost effective service to our exhibitors that will assist in alleviating all concerns associated with the testing and tagging process.

How does using the approved contractor benefit me, the exhibitor?   

• Ensure Safety, Save Time and Save Money.
• Presently, the onus is on the exhibitor to arrange to have their electrical items/appliances tested and tagged every 6-12 months. Depending on the item/appliance and the venue the exhibition is being held at, the testing dates vary.  This constant testing and tagging is confusing, time consuming and expensive with the current testing & tagging cost being $8.80 per item.

The approved contractor will now be responsible for the following:

• Inspection of all exhibitor appliances to ensure they have a current tag to comply with Australian Standard 3760 and that they are installed correctly.
• Testing and tagging of any appliances (leads, lights, products) that are not compliant to the Australian standard (or venue specific requirements).
• New to service “NTS” tags may be applied to new items if required.
• Any failed item that needs to be repaired or replaced can be done on the spot i.e. extension cords/power boards etc – additional charges may apply for this service. In addition: exhibitors do not have to be present when this service is carried out (optional).
• There will be less power trips if all item/appliance have been checked. 
  

How much will this cost?
For the first power point ordered at each event there will be a small fee applied (approximately $20 depending on the event and contractor). This fee is all inclusive and covers the checking of all items, testing & tagging of any out of date or new items. The fee will be collected by the official electrical contractors via their electrical service order form in the Exhibitor Tasks. Please note: Not applicable for GPCE Sydney/Melbourne. If testing and tagging is required please visit the customer service desk on site to get this co-ordinated.

Stand Power: All stand power will be switched off each operational night, except the last day of the event, where it will be switched off when the event finishes (for example at 4pm if the event ends at 4pm). All stand power will be switched on at 7.30am each morning.

• Fire exits and emergency equipment must not be obstructed. You must ensure that portable power equipment is used for the purpose for which it was designed and that safety guard and dust collection bags are correctly fitted and used.
• It is your responsibility to ensure that any equipment or re-wired units comply with the venue regulations before they are installed on site. You must ensure that portable electric tools are used with the minimum length of trailing leads and that such equipment is not left unattended with a live power supply to it.
• No electrical cables must be allowed to cross gangways, passageways and fire exits. All portable electrical equipment should have a current inspection tag attached, and when in use, should be connected to a Residual Current Device.
• All electrical equipment, lights, appliances, power boards, leads etc used on your stand at the Centre must be tested and tagged every 12 months of the Fair in accordance with Australian Standard As/NZS 3760. This is a statutory requirement. Tags need to be clearly identifiable. However, new electrical items (eg. lamps) being displayed for sale and not being plugged in, and will be handled by visitors or demonstrators, do not need to be tagged. 

Please see Emergency Evacuation procedures and map in the Venue and Surrounds Section of the Exhibitor Manual.

• Fire hydrants and extinguishers in the exhibition halls must not be obstructed by exhibitors, they are to be visible and accessible at all times.
• Displays must be confined to, and canvassing and selling conducted within, space booked. It is a venue fire and safety requirement to have a minimum aisle width of 3 metres.
• Work, Health & Safety officers will be present during move in and during the event to ensure that displays do not encroach on aisles and that visitor flow is not impeded by business being conducted in the aisles. Encroaching items may be confiscated without notice.

For events in venues that has escalators and lifts, only items that can be hand carried are permitted in guest lifts and escalators.

Goods lifts are available in some venues – and they must be operated by venue staff or approved contractors. When using goods lifts, pay close attention to maximum loading capacities. Safeguarding of lifts and loads is required to prevent damage to lift doors, walls and the control panel.

Please see Admission and Exhibitor ID information in the Event Info section of the Exhibitor Manual.

Proposals to use flammable gas and/or naked flames i.e candles on any exhibit must be approved in writing by the Venue Management at least one month prior to the first day of move-in.

Please note for events held at the Royal Exhibition Building, which is a world heritage listed building, naked flame is not permitted in this venue.

For venues that allows naked flames or other flammable items, fire extinguishers will be required on stands with lit candles. An exhibition stand will only be permitted to have a naked flame where it is part of their product range or essential for the demonstration of their product. Flammable liquids may be used as part of an exhibit display within certain guidelines. The flammable liquid manufacturer will need to provide an MSDS in order to get approval from the venue. If you have any doubt about the appliance you plan to use, contact the Operations team at RX. 

Fire extinguishers and venue firefighting equipment must be visible and accessible at all times and must not be removed from their correct location. Display stands/materials must not obscure or hinder access to firefighting equipment. All electrical equipment including lights, appliances, powerboards, leads etc used on your stand at all exhibitions must be tested and tagged in accordance with the Australian standard 3760-2000. This is a statutory requirement. All tags need to be clearly identifiable. Should the construction of a stand create a potential smoke lock area or create an area not serviceable by the existing sprinkler systems, the Venue Management may require the exhibitor to install a smoke detection or sprinkler system, emergency and exit lighting and exit systems on their stand. Materials used for your stand display must be kept clean of lights & electrical leads. DO NOT wrap anything around these leads, as this is a fire hazard.

Any materials used for stand construction or display purposes must conform to the following standards: Non-combustible material, inherently non-flammable material, flame-proof fabric, self-extinguishing plastic material plywood, hardwood, pulp board or fiberboard rendered flame-resistant by a process of impregnation acceptable to the authorities. Crepe paper, corrugated cardboard, straw, untreated hessian or PVC sheet (except on floors as a protective membrane) is strictly forbidden. Sawdust tan bark or wood chips of a reasonable size may be used to decorate floors provided a protective membrane is laid first and chips are kept slightly moist at all times.

• Materials used for lining, drapes backdrops, blinds or overhead structures, signs and banners or similar items in displays must be rendered non-flammable - ie with a flammability index of greater than 6 (AS/NZ 1530.3:1999).
• Unless treated, to this standard, readily flammable materials are strictly prohibited. Such materials include crepe paper, corrugated cardboard, plastic, styrene, hessian, loose straw, hay, leaves.
• Flame retardant coatings must: be certified by the manufacturer for use on the material to achieve the required indices; include a label with the name of the manufacturer, trade name, name of applicator, date, flammability index, spread of flame and smoke developed indices and approved method of cleaning. This needs to be available to be provided on request with all information and documentation to the event's Operation Manager.
