My friend installed some panels and this Tesla panel thingy, so now state power is just backup! But apparently if your house is on fire and you have panels, the fire department will not help because the firefighters can get electrocuted.

There was a house fire in another town here, the firefighters couldn't get in close because the power needed to be switched off; it took an hour and half for the techs to get there. Two houses burnt down.

Id guess the individual fire fighters are probably simply not allowed to because of OH&S.

I know a fire-fighter (paid not volunteer) who used to be an electrical engineer before getting bored, and he has told me some pretty silly stories because of "red tape" basically.
 
this has drifted off the original theme but I will just add that I bought a couple of fire extinguishers today because I don't want to lose my 35 reptiles because some boofocrat says fireys aren't allowed to turn off a switch and they should just watch my house burn down.
 
Good idea Rick.
Back on topic, still no renewal in the letterbox yet. Anyone else?
 
You know, people say technology will make things faster and more convenient. You'll also get ripped off faster! :confused:
 
Permit renewal arrived in the mail today, up to $71.50, and due on the 15th of July. Wow, thanks, DEWNR.
Also a letter saying there are changes coming next year.
 
I can't get to the PO box today,
Does it say what the changes are or what they relate too?

I'm just still trying to decide between specialist, basic, or just not renewing since the only animal I'm about to purchase is a single basic animal.
So was wondering If the changes will influence that decision lol.

Top work DEWNR allowing people to have a say by not publicly sending out info until after the discussion period is already closed.
 
Yep. We'll listen to what you have to say, but won't tell you what we are going to do about it.
The biggest change I've heard about is that all large monitors are going to be specialist. At least that is what was planned.
 
Thanks for the info, Pinefamily.

Mine was also waiting in the PO box, a lovely $127 bill. My favourite haha, along with the dog rego! Gee just the right to keep animals is expensive these days.



It's been awhile since I've done one,
Do people now email in their import permit requests rather than post/fax?
Do people scan and email back their renewals?

I just had a baby and have a toddler, so avoiding going to the post office with them is high on my priority list haha
