About this level
Practical summary
Class 3510 sits in the PSIC 2019 hierarchy under D Electricity, Gas, Steam and Air Conditioning Supply > 35 Electricity, Gas, Steam and Air Conditioning Supply > 351 Electric power generation, transmission and. This class usually fans out into more specific subclasses such as Electric Power Generation, Transmission and Distribution. It is the level people use when they already know the activity family but still need the exact five-digit match.
Administrative context
Where this code is used
This class is used when a business can already narrow the activity family and only needs to compare the final subclasses such as Electric Power Generation, Transmission and Distribution. It is the level most often checked before a five-digit decision is finalized.
Selection note
How to choose it
Use this class to choose between its final subclasses such as Electric Power Generation, Transmission and Distribution. If two options look close, compare the exact activity, the outputs and the way the business actually earns revenue.
Official note
Source-backed description
This includes the generation of bulk electric power, transmission and distribution to end users. This class includes: Operation of generation facilities that produce electric energy, including thermal, nuclear, hydroelectric, gas turbine, diesel and renewable Operation of transmission systems that convey the electricity from the generation facility to the distribution system Operation of distribution systems (i.e. consisting of lines, poles, meters, and wiring) that convey electric power received from the generation facility or the transmission system to the final consumer Sale of electricity to the user Activities of electric power brokers or agents that arrange the sale of electricity via power distribution systems operated by others Operation of electricity and transmission capacity exchanges for electric power This class excludes production of electricity through incineration of waste, see 3821 352 3520 35200 Manufacture of gas; distribution of gaseous fuels through mains This class includes the manufacture of gas and the distribution of natural or synthetic gas to the consumer through a system of mains. Gas marketers or brokers, which arrange the sale of natural gas over distribution systems operated by others, are included. The separate operation of gas pipelines, typically done over long distances, connecting producers, with distribution of gas, or between urban centers, is excluded from this class and classified with other pipeline transport activities. This class includes: Production of gas for the purpose of gas supply by carbonation of coal, from by- products of agriculture or from waste Manufacture of gaseous fuels with a specified calorific value, by purification, blending and other processes from gases of various types including natural gas Transportation, distribution and supply of gaseous fuels of all kinds through a system of mains Sale of gas to the user through mains Activities of gas brokers or agents that arrange the sale of gas over gas distribution systems operated by others Commodity and transport capacity exchanges gaseous fuels This class excludes: Operation of coke ovens, see 1910; Manufacture of refined petroleum products, see 1920; Manufacture of industrial gases, see 2011; Wholesale of gaseous fuels, see 4661; Retail sale of bottled gas, see 4773; Direct selling of fuel, see 4799; (Long distance) tranportation of gases by pipelines, see 4930. 353 3530 35300 Steam, air conditioning supply and production of ice This class includes: Production, collection and distribution of steam and hot water for heating, power and other purposes Production and distribution of cooled air Production of ice for cooling purposes This excludes production of ice for human consumption, see 1079.
FAQ
What does PSIC Class 3510 cover?
PSIC Class 3510 is the four-digit layer that sits just above the final subclasses and usually defines the activity family for Electric power generation, transmission and distribution.
How do I compare Class 3510 with the sibling classes?
Read the neighboring classes and compare the exact wording of the child subclasses. Nearby options include nearby sibling codes.
Why does Class 3510 matter for a filing decision?
It is usually the last broad checkpoint before the five-digit subclass choice, so it is the right place to catch near-miss classifications.
