AusNet Services standard drawings & connection standards
AusNet Services is the electricity distributor for eastern and north-eastern Victoria. If you're doing connection, metering or supply work on its network, AusNet Services's standard drawings and network technical standards are the rules that apply on the network side of the meter. Here's where to find the official documents — we link to them, we don't host them.
Contractor access
Electrician info (portal for standards) ↗AusNet's own technical standards are accessed via a registration-gated portal; the public installation rules are the VESI/VSIR.
What these cover
On AusNet Services's network across eastern and north-eastern Victoria, the standard drawings and network standards set out how the connection between the network and an installation must be built — service and point-of-attachment arrangements, metering and CT positions, underground and overhead service rules, pillar and pit details, and clearances. AusNet Services keeps the full set on a contractor portal, so you may need to register to reach every drawing. They sit alongside the wiring rules (AS/NZS 3000) and Victoria's installation rules (administered by Building and Plumbing Commission (Victoria)), and they're revised periodically — always work from AusNet Services's current published version, not a saved copy.
