British electricians who work in NZ say that the requirements are very different over there. One guy on here mentioned the lack of testing in NZ, but maybe it varies between areas.

Yeah we do have testing standards for all Earth Bonding, Earth loop impedance, RCD, Polarity, Continuity, Insulation resistance and so on but some companys fail to enforce it on there employeys.
