Electricity transmission code review 2018 - final decision - Archived

23 Aug 2018

The Commission has released its final report on the review of the Electricity Transmission Code. The amended Code will apply on and from 23 August 2018.

The Code applies primarily to ElectraNet Pty Ltd, South Australia’s main electricity transmission network business, and establishes planning and restoration standards for electricity transmission services in South Australia.

The review was undertaken to clarify existing provisions of the Code and make consequential changes to reflect recent legislative amendments.

The Commission’s final decision on the amendments to be made to the Code has taken into account the need to address interpretation issues that have been identified through previous compliance reviews. They do not impact or change the existing operation of the Code – they are for clarity and simplification only. The Commission's reasons for the amendments are set out in the final decision paper.
