The Humelink project is a once-in-a-generation investment in Australia’s high voltage transmission network and is planned to support the transition to a low emissions generation portfolio. This project is a critical part of AEMO’s ISP, connecting a new 500 kV transmission link through Wagga Wagga, Bannaby and Maragle to the existing transmission network, and supporting large scale renewable energy generation.
Humelink will reinforce Transgrid’s transmission network in southern NSW to improve the flow of electricity from new generation sources in southern and western NSW to major demand centres in the State, and to customers across the NEM (National Energy market).
The project will be delivered under two separate Contract Packages – Humelink East and Humelink West. Humelink East and Humelink West will join and integrate to form HumeLink, and enable the Project to operate safely, reliably, and efficiently as part of Transgrid’s network and the NEM as a whole.
AGJV has been contracted to deliver the Humelink East package.
ACTION: YOU MUST REGISTER WITH 3D SAFETY FIRST AND COMPLETE THE HUMELINK INDUCTION PRIOR TO REGISTERING WITH PEGASUS WORKFORCE
All subcontractors to Humelink East (AGJV) will receive an invitation by email to complete registration of their business and workers into the Transgrid’s Worker Safety, Authorisation and Training portal. All contractors and workers on Humelink East project must be registered. The process is completed in two parts: business registration, and worker registration, including Power System Safety Rules (PSSR) bookings.
We suggest you read through the instructions and give yourself time to source the information needed to work for Transgrid. Your administrators will complete this process for your business and each worker.
If your business is already registered, you may login to the system via Pegasus Gateway, and follow the instructions under Stage 2: Register Your Workers to ensure each employee is site-ready for this project. If your business is not registered please follow instructions under Stage 1: Register Your Business.
IMPORTANT NOTE: As a subcontractor to AGJV you ONLY need to register your business name which is free of charge. You are not required to provide evidence of insurances or complete a Safety and Environment Management System (SEMS) review.
Video and document user guides can be found from the Help and Resources page.

Important Action
To ensure you register as a subcontractor ensure you answer the ‘Classification’ questions as follows: ‘Are you being engaged by Transgrid. If you are being engaged by Transgrid you will be invoicing Transgrid directly?’
Answer “No”.
To complete your registration, you will next be invited to register your workers. Please click to expand Stage 2.
Stage 2: Register Your Workers (click to expand instructions)
Step 1 > Login and add workers
On business registration approval (stage 1), Pegasus will email you login details to register your workers.
Using these emailed details, login and add your workers – you’ll start by selecting Manage Roles and then Add New Employee. From here you can enter and save their personal contact details, address, phone and email.
If a worker is already a registered cardholder, you may proceed to Step 3 to select their site and role for this project.
Step 2 > Pay for worker registration and contractor card
Pay for your worker’s registration and order their contractor cards to work for Transgrid.
-
- Year 1 costs $90 + GST per worker for the management of roles, verification of documents, inductions and supply of card.
A tax invoice will be supplied on payment. If your workers hold current registrations in the Transgrid WSAT system, there is no additional cost to add their roles on this site.
Step 3 > Select site and roles
Select Work Roles > Add Site and select Humelink East. Workers must hold these roles, which will be auto-assigned or selected:
Mandatory:
-
-
Environmental – E1 – Access and inspections only (auto-assigned)
- Pegasus Humelink Induction General (auto-assigned)
- PSSR 6.1 – Transmission Lines (auto-assigned)
-
Where applicable:
-
- Environmental -E3, 4WD role/s
If you are unsure what roles you need to apply for each worker, please contact your Humelink East AGJV representative competency.admin@humelink.com.
Step 4 > Upload documents
Your role selections will determine the competency documents (licences, cards and qualifications) which you will need to upload in the system to prove your worker can perform the chosen role/s. Pegasus will validate the documents you have uploaded during the registration of your workers.
Contractor cards
Upon document approval and induction completion, the roles will be applied to your worker’s profile and contractor cards issued. The contractor card will be sent to the workers nominated address, this could be your business’s address. Please ensure that all workers receive their card prior to commencing work at site.
It’s important that you keep worker’s details up to date, and you’ll be emailed about expiring documents and information to stay compliant. You may also elect to invite your workers to the Transgrid Worker Portal, which allows them to manage their own profile. Visit the Worker Portal page for more information.
