Hi Dave, You will need an Australian entity to sign an EMC DoC and apply their C-Tick number to the product. This is usually the Australian agent or whoever collects the equipment from customs.
There is probably no need for your unit to have safety approval, but plugs and cords must be approved, and any separate power supplies usually need approval as well.
