Start Your Career with Level 1 ASP Training

The electrical supply industry offers a range of career pathways, and becoming an Accredited Service Provider (ASP) Level 1 is an excellent way to enter the field. Level 1 ASPs are responsible for the construction and installation of electrical infrastructure, including overhead and underground power lines. With this training, workers gain the skills and accreditation needed to work on high-voltage networks and contribute to the expansion and maintenance of NSW’s electricity supply.

What does a Level 1 ASP do?

A Level 1 ASP carries out critical work on the electricity network, ensuring new developments and infrastructure projects have a reliable power supply. This includes:

• Constructing and upgrading high-voltage and low-voltage power lines
• Installing and maintaining underground and overhead service lines
• Extending or modifying the existing electricity distribution network
• Connecting large developments, commercial properties, and substations to the power grid

Because this work involves high-voltage electrical systems, only accredited professionals who have completed level 1 ASP training can perform these tasks safely and legally.

Why level 1 ASP training is essential

To become an ASP, electricians and industry professionals must complete accredited training that meets the requirements set by the NSW Government. Level 1 ASP training provides:

• A deep understanding of electrical infrastructure, network construction, and power distribution
• Practical experience in installing, maintaining, and upgrading power lines
• Knowledge of SafeWork NSW regulations, safety standards, and compliance requirements
• Training in risk assessment and hazard management for high-voltage environments

Without this qualification, workers cannot legally perform contestable electrical work on NSW’s electricity network.

Who should complete ASP training?

This training is ideal for:

• Electrical contractors who want to offer Level 1 ASP services as part of their business
• Workers in the electrical supply industry who need formal accreditation for network construction projects
• Anyone looking for career advancement in a growing and in-demand sector

By completing level 1 ASP training, workers can access more job opportunities and higher-paying roles in the electrical supply industry.

Compliance and safety requirements

Working on high-voltage power networks comes with serious risks, so strict safety regulations apply to Level 1 ASP work. Before starting a project, ASPs must comply with:

• SafeWork NSW guidelines for electrical safety and risk management
• Electricity network provider requirements, including permits and authorisations
• Worksite hazard assessments to ensure safe working conditions
• Ongoing refresher training to maintain compliance and keep skills up to date

Basically, to register as an ASP and work in the network, you must complete ASP training. By successfully completing our pathways program, you may then register an ASP and start your career.
