Electrical standards for classroom laboratories
Thanks for your question.
The Australian Standard that you need to refer to is AS/NZS 2982:2010 Laboratory design and construction.
Section 10 contains information specifically for secondary school laboratories and states the following:
10.3 ELECTRICAL SERVICES
All power to general purpose outlets for student use shall be supplied through an emergency/master control circuit operated by a suitably labelled push-button, with key operated manual reset, located near the teacher's bench adjacent to the main gas isolating valves.[i]
