I'd be almost certain there are Australian Standards in regards to Auto Electrical work, and the do's and donts.
There might also be state by state regulations concerning the legalities of who can do what legally.

depends on the situation. In this case, i might not. Being that the person in question lef the wiring up to the devices of the workshop i would make the workshop responsible.
maybe i should just take out PMP80Y to an auto electrician tomorrow, rip out all the wiring and ask him to fix it because my work was unsafe? If i were rich i would do it, and bet $500 that he did a shittier job.
Virtually every conversion i have seen wired up by an auto-sparkie was crap, and one bordering on unsafe. What kind of auto-elec uses NON INSUALTED terminals on a horn relay for ignition power, then leaves said relay unmounted and LOOSE in the engine bay!?!?!? This thing had UNFUSED 12V coming straight from the battery!!!!!
That said though, no doubt there are good auto elecs too.

Like with any trade you get good tradespeople and sloppy. You've no doubt encountered the latter of the group more often than the former. However, if you think your work is good AND as a legal requirment the wiring for your conversion should have been done by a properly ticketed person, i would try to find an auto sparky who would sign off on your work as his own. This might prove to be hard if your work isnt what he or she would consider up to standard, but if you could pull it off it would be ALOT cheaper than him completely rewiring your car
