                             Standard Guidelines OH-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 2002.

   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.

   Natural ground level on the easement should not be disturbed without Energex
    approval.

   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.

   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 Principal Mains Design
    Engineer for review.

    NOTE: The identification, assessment and mitigation of any possible hazards in the
    service due to electromagnetically induced voltages, is the responsibility of the
    Developer.

   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.
