Water and wastewater electrical assets guideline

The 'Water and wastewater electrical assets guideline' outlines the process for the delivery of Electrical and Control System (ECS) works for water and wastewater assets by developers. This arrangement allows proponents to construct electrical and control systems on our behalf, ensuring compliance with all applicable standards and requirements.

ECS requirements for water and wastewater assets are specified in the following documents and standards:

  • the Toowoomba Regional Planning Scheme
  • General Electrical Specifications
  • Site Type Specifications
  • standard RTU (Remote Terminal Unit) Code
  • standard SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) Templates
  • the list of pre-approved Control System Integrators.

Copies of these documents are available on request. Please email us to receive a copy.

Guideline purpose

The purpose of this guideline is to:

  • ensure ECS works align with our planning scheme, technical specifications, and standardised control and SCADA frameworks
  • promote consistency, reliability, and maintainability across our infrastructure
  • ensure the use of approved control system integrators and standardised templates and codes.

Benefits

This guideline will:

  • provide clear and consistent requirements for compliant ECS design and delivery
  • reduce rework, delays, and associated costs for developers and our teams
  • ensure only approved vendors interact with our industrial control system
  • protect system integrity and operational reliability.
