I'm in Australia and am having continuous augments/Debates on another forum as to why NZ homeowners can do electrical work unlicensed on there own home
Here in Australia an unlicensed person cannot do any electrical work at all.
The debate is the in NZ they use the same wiring regulations and since the NZ government allowed the homeowner to do limited electrical work the amount of deaths by electrical accidents have decreased.
The augment on the Australian forum is if this is the case why don't the Australian Government allow the home owner to DIY electrical work
From what I can find out the NZ Government allowed this to help get rid of faulty and dangerous fittings which in turn created a safer environment
Can someone shed some light on the NZ way of doing things
