Unregistered cablers must be supervised

If you are not registered, you can perform cabling work only if you are directly supervised by a registered cabler at all times. 

The supervisor must:

  • be registered for the type of work you are doing (open, restricted or lift)
  • take full responsibility for the standard of work you complete
  • ensure all work complies with the rules and requirements for cablers
  • complete a written statement certifying that the work complies with the Wiring Rules after finishing a task

These requirements are part of the Telecommunications (Cabling Provider) Rules 2025 (Part 4 section 22(1)(b)).

If you believe someone is working as an unregistered cabler or without proper supervision, make a complaint.

If you do cabling work and are not registered or not supervised, we may give you a fine or even prosecute you.
