Technical Code

What is Technical Code?

Technical Code (TC) is a voluntary industry code that sets out the requirements and best practices to ensure network facilities, services and equipment are interoperable and safe. TC also acts as a harmoniser of differing industries and international standards through consensus among various stakeholders to suit the country’s requirements.
