Jemena standard drawings & connection standards

Jemena is the electricity distributor for north-west Melbourne. If you're doing connection, metering or supply work on its network, Jemena'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.

What these cover

On Jemena's network across north-west Melbourne, 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. Jemena publishes these openly, so you can reach the current drawings without an account. 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 Jemena's current published version, not a saved copy.

Working in the Jemena network

We're an independent directory of suppliers. We link to Jemena's official documents for convenience — we don't host, reproduce or interpret them, and being listed here is not an endorsement by Jemena. Standards change; confirm the current requirements and your obligations directly with Jemena and Victoria's regulator.
