Attached to the e-mail Energex info request - MCU22/0039.
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
