Remote Or On-Site Location Advice
This service shall be provided at ENERGEX's discretion:

 • In response to your request, ENERGEX provides this site visit when 33kV or above cables are present only, however any markings or
     pegs placed on the site will be indications of approximate equipment locations only. All markings must be confirmed by careful
     hand excavation.
• ENERGEX may provide either remote over the phone or on-site location advice to assist in the location of ENERGEX plant, Including
     how to visually locate and protect the plant when excavating.
• If the constructor Is unable to locate ENERGEX plant within 2.5 m of nominal plan locations, they should contact Network Customer
     Services for further advice.
• Where on-site location advice is provided, the constructor is responsible for all hand digging (potholing) to visually locate and expose
     ENERGEX plant.

When Working in the Vicinity of ENERGEX Plant, Please Observe the Following Conditions -
Records
The first step before any excavation commences is to obtain records of ENERGEX plant in the vicinity of the work. For new work, records
should be obtained during the planning and design stage. The records provided by ENERGEX must be made available to all construction
groups on site. Where plant information is transferred to plans for the proposed work, care must be exercised to ensure that important
detail is not lost in the process.
Location of Cables
Examining the records Is not sufficient, as reference points may change from the time of installation. Records must also be physically
proven when working in close proximity to them. The exact location of plant likely to be affected shall be confirmed by use of an
electronic cable and pipe locater followed by careful hand excavation to the level of cover slabs or conduits. Hand excavation must
be used In advance of excavators. In any case, where any doubt exists with respect to interpretation of cable records, ENERGEX
Network Customer Services shall be contacted. For after hour's enquiries, ENERGEX should be contacted on Ph 13 62 62.
Electrical Cable Covers
ENERGEX cables have warning covers of either.

1. Clay paving bricks or tiles marked 'Electricity' or similar (also unmarked)
2. Concrete or PVC cover slabs
3. PVC, NC or fibro conduit, fibre reinforced concrete, Iron or steel pipe
4. Concrete encased PVC or steel pipe
5. Thin plastic marker tape
6. Large pipes housing multiple ducts
7. Multiple duct systems, Including earthenware or concrete 2-, 4-, and 6-way ducts and shamrocks
Note: Some cables are known to be buried without covers.
Excavating Near Cables
For all work within 2.5 m of nominal location, the constructor is required to hand dig (pothole) and expose the plant, hence proving its
exact location before work can commence.
Excavating Parallel to Cables
if construction work Is parallel to ENERGEX cables, then hand digging (potholing) at least every 4 m is required to establish the location
of all cables, hence confirming nominal locations before work can commence. Generally, there Is no restriction to excavations parallel to
ENERGEX cables to a depth not exceeding that of the cable. If an excavation exceeds the depth of the cables and it Is likely that
the covers or bedding material around the cablestpipes will move, ENERGEX shag be contacted.
Note: Cable depths may change suddenly.
Excavating Across Cables
A minimum clearance of 150 mm above and below cables shall be maintained. A standard clearance between services shall be
maintained as set down by the individual authorities. if the width or depth of the excavation is such that the cables will be exposed or
unsupported, then ENERGEX shall be contacted to determine whether the cables should be taken out of service, or whether they need to
be protected or supported. In no case shall a cable cover be removed without approval. A cable cover may only be replaced under the
supervision of an ENERGEX officer. Protective cover strips when removed must be replaced under ENERGEX supervision. Under no
circumstances shall they be omitted to allow separation between ENERGEX cables and other services.
Heavy Machinery Operation Over Cables
Where heavy 'Crawler' or Vibration' type machinery is operated over the top of cables, a minimum cover of 450 mm to the cable
protective cover mains must be maintained using load bearing protection whilst the machinery is in operation.
Directional Boring Near Cables
When boring parallel to rabies, it is essential that trial holes are carefully hand dug at regular intervals to prove the actual location of the
conduits/cables before using boring machinery. Where it is required to bore across the line of cables, the actual location of the cables
shall first be proven by hand digging. A trench shall be excavated one metre from the side of the cables where the auger will approach to
ensure a minimum clearance of 150 mm for cables can be maintained.
Explosives
Explosives must not be used within 5 metres of cables, unless an engineering report is provided indicating that no damage will be
sustained. Clearances should be obtained from ENERGDCs Planting Engineer for use of explosives in the vicinity of ENERGEX cables.
