What CablerMate does

AS/CA S009:2020 (Installation requirements for customer cabling) runs to hundreds of pages of clauses, tables and figures. CablerMate lets you ask a question the way you’d say it on site — “can I run cable in the same conduit as high voltage?” — and answers only from the standard’s own text, with inline citations for every clause and table it relies on. No answer is ever generated from the model’s memory of cabling rules, and no answer ever tells you whether your work passes or fails — it always points you to the clause to check yourself.

Who it’s for

Registered cablers, telecommunications technicians, and apprentices working to AS/CA S009 across Australia — anyone who needs a fast, accurate answer to a customer cabling question on the job, without memorising the whole standard or searching a PDF on a phone screen.

Where do the answers come from?

No. CablerMate runs in your phone's browser, and you can add it to your home screen for quick access like a native app.
