                                  Standard Guidelines MD-03/12

When considering Works, either on Energex easements or in the vicinity of Energex assets,
please be aware of the following general conditions:

   Satisfactory clearance from your proposed structure to the existing (and/or future) electricity
    wires must be maintained in accordance with the Electrical Safety Regulations 2013.

   All previous conditions must be adhered to and Energex may, at its discretion, audit the
    finished development to check that it conforms to the conditions of the development.

   Natural ground levels on the easement are not be disturbed without Energex approval.
    Detailed civil design drawings showing any proposed cut and fill levels on the easement
    and the location of the Energex assets in relation to the proposed development are to be
    submitted to and approved by Energex prior to the commencement of any works on site.

   No civil works are to occur within 5 metres of any part of an Energex Structure (e.g.- tower
    base, pole or stay) without Energex approval.

   If the minimum 5m horizontal separation to the Energex structure cannot be achieved, the
    Developer must consult Energex with regards to allowable construction methods. This may
    include full depth shoring of the excavation sides for a minimum of 5 metres either side of
    the structure.

   Any excavations deeper than 5m must have a minimum horizontal separation from the
    excavation to any tower, base or pole at least equal to the excavation depth. The
    excavation is not to be left open overnight and backfill is to be compacted in 150mm layers
    in the immediate vicinity of the structure.

   10 metres clear access must be provided around all towers and pole structures after the
    completion of any works on the easement.

   Final ground levels should slope gently to the edge of the easement, surrounding area or
    kerb such that pooling of water on the easement is avoided and conductor ground
    clearances are not decreased.

   Stockpiling of spoil on the easement is prohibited.

   Lighting structures are not permitted in the easement without prior written consent of
    Energex. Lighting designs for proposed developments (e.g. road, carparks etc) on the
    easement are likely to require reduced height structures. Please submit detailed design to
    Energex for approval. These drawings must clearly show the following:
    -      Proposed height of the lighting structures and the ground level at the structure base,
    -      Relative (to lighting structures) ground levels at Energex structures (towers, pole etc)
           either side of the lighting structures, and
    -      The location of the Energex structures in relation to the proposed lighting

   Proposed underground services such as stormwater, sewerage, water and the like are to be
    kept to the outer edge of the easement. Services crossing the easement should be as near
    as practicable to right angles to the overhead conductor direction and not within 10 metres
    of any tower, pole or stay. Pipelines and crossings are to be clearly marked. Please
    submit the relevant design drawings to the Energex for review.
    The identification, assessment and mitigation of any possible hazards in the service due to
    electromagnetically induced voltages, is the responsibility of the Developer.
