Any cut in the vicinity of a structure or between a structure and the road kerb will need to be
stabilised by a retaining wall. The retaining wall design and location is to be submitted to
Energex for approval.
Any costs incurred by Energex as a result of the works on the easement are to be met by
the property Developer / owner.
Access to the easement and access along the easement must be available to Energex
personnel and heavy equipment at all times. Energex will require the Developer / owner to
supply and install gates where fencing prohibits access to and along the easement area.
To enable travel along the easement at anytime the gates must be series locked with an
Energex padlock. Both the padlock and a design drawing of an acceptable gate will be
provided by Energex.
At all times the following clearance must be maintained from the top of any machinery
moving in the vicinity of energised conductors:
- 132kV and 110kV conductors – 4.5m minimum clearance
- 33kV and 11kV conductors – 3m minimum clearance
Should it be necessary to transport equipment or extend any equipment, such that these
clearances cannot be confidently maintained, you are required to contact our office to
ascertain whether a Safety Officer is required on–site. All operators of machinery are to be
made aware of the presence of high voltage conductors.
No planting is permitted in the Easement without prior approval from Energex. If planting is
proposed, the applicant is required to provide a Detailed Landscape Plan to Energex for
approval which:
o Keeps the planting of trees to the outer most edge of the easement and not directly
under any overhead conductors; and
o Plots the location of the overhead conductors (accounting for a cross-arm if
applicable and plotting the powerline on the outmost edge of each side of the cross-
arm); and
o Uses species included on Energex’s Safetrees list
(https://www.energex.com.au/about-us/our-commitment/to-the-
environment/vegetation/safetree-program); and
o Ensures a horizontal clearance is achieved between the tree and the outer most
conductor equal to the mature height of the tree.
