AUE Guides for Mechanical and Electrical Installations

 

The AUE is delighted to be able to make available to its members this collection of guides for the provision of mechanical and electrical services.

The intention of these guides is to enable you to simply pull together a document you can use for small to medium sized projects, as well as provide guidance to design teams for larger projects.

Each guide can be used on its own or in combination with any of the other guides.

The General Guide includes basic preliminaries you can use for any project and is recommended to be used with any combination of the guides you choose, as it contains a "tick box" page to indicate which guides you are incorporating in your documents.

We would ask that you retain references to both the AUE and Hulley & Kirkwood.

These documents are specifically titled as guides, as neither the AUE nor Hulley & Kirkwood can offer any professional indemnity with their use.

We hope you find them useful and would welcome any comments for improvements, changes and additions to be incorporated within the biennial document review.

 

These documents have all been revised by Hulley & Kirkwood in December 2023.
