I believe you are referring to AS-3000. http://www.techstreet.com/standards/as_nzs/3000_2007_paperback_pdf_?product_id=1527571. I've been looking into what North American electrical/instrumentation components (oil and gas industry) require to be certified to Australian Standards.

So far I've come up with AS-3000 and possibly IECEX.

Hi turbineair,

I've found some additional Electrical specifications that may help you below. Note these are for an oil and gas project and thus may not be pertinent, and also I do not guarantee the accuracy of my findings, good luck
