    I need to direct you to the Australian electric code, of which you must have a copy handy if your taking a class.

    I do not believe anyone here is familiar with it.

    And I am unable to find much on the internet.

    The National Electric Code used in the USA may be similar , but I am sure the values of derating factors are a bit different, and this is nothing to be inaccurate about.

    If you can find a link to read it on line, perhaps we can help.

    Reviewing the local electric utility installation requirement will help also.
