EESS exemptions and allowances

Supply flexible cords and building wire cable

Some cable marking equipment is not capable of printing the RCM symbol as required. This issue is common for all types of inkjet/dot-matrix printing processes used for marking some supply flexible cords and building wiring cables.

Energy Safe Victoria approves the use of the alternative approval mark to the RCM in accordance with section 62W of the Electricity Safety Act 1998 for supply flexible cords and building wiring cables that use inkjet dot-matrix printing processes to apply markings to their cables and cords.
