CONSTRUCTION See “Works Plan”.
DRAWING
DISCONNECT LINK 1, air insulated (normally), switch used to isolate lines and
apparatus from the network. A disconnect link shall be easily
operable as a switch. It shall not require unbolting (or
otherwise complex disconnection), of electrical connections.
Refer Link.
DISTRIBUTION That part of the electricity supply network at voltages below
NETWORK transmission/ subtransmission level (typically 22 kV, 11 kV
and LV). See also “Distribution Mains” or “Distribution
System”.
DISTRIBUTION A substation that transforms or converts electrical energy
SUBSTATION from a higher voltage network to a secondary distribution
network (see also “Padmounted Transformer”).
DROP OUT (DO) or Drop Out fuse (DO) is a fuse where the fuse carrier drops into
DROP OUT FUSE an open position, after the fuse has operated. Use of the term
EDO shall be discontinued.
EARTHING (Earths) The process of connecting components of electricity supply
networks to ground to prevent dangerous voltages occurring
on components which may be contacted by persons, or which
may be damaged by the voltages. Usually applied to rods,
metallic electrodes or a group of interconnected rods and the
wire making connection to the distribution system component
that is ‘earthed’.
EASEMENT A strip of land registered on the title deed in the office of the
Registrar of Titles allowing access or other rights to a public
body or party other than the owner of the parcel of land on
which the easement exists.
FEEDER A circuit (normally HV) emanating from a substation for
distributing electric power.
FIELD BOOK A notebook used to record site survey data (e.g., distances,
bearings, angles, slope readings and topographical features).
FOOTPATH A distance relative to the edge of a footpath (usually the
ALIGNMENT property boundary side) used to describe the position of an
underground service or pole.
FOOTPATH A space in the footpath between two alignments designated
ALLOCATION by the local or public authority in which a pole or underground
service may be located.
GROUND CLEARANCE The vertical distance between the conductor and ground.
HEAD STAY
UNCONTROLLED COPY
See “Aerial Stay”.
HEIGHT STICK An extendable stick used for measuring the heights of
conductors and poles.
HIGH VOLTAGE (HV) Electrical potential greater than 1000V
ISOLATOR SWITCH 1 or 3, enclosed switching device utilising air, oil, SF6, or
vacuum Insulation mediums. Capable of making, carrying
and breaking currents to specified levels under normal
conditions. Isolators cannot interrupt fault currents. In
substations such an enclosed switch shall be called an
isolator and a similar non-enclosed switch shall be called an
air break. Isolators may exist in ring main units.
JOINT A location in an electricity supply network where two or more
cables join or terminate.
JOINT USE See “Common Use Pole”.
POLE/COLUMN
KING BOLT The main bolt attaching a crossarm or other fixture to a pole.
KING BOLT SPACING The vertical distance between king bolt attachment points. In
a top construction, it may be the distance from below the top
of the pole to the attachment point.
LIMIT STATE DESIGN An approach to structural design using load factors and
strength factors that take into account statistical variations in
loads and material properties to achieve a desired level of
reliability. The structure must remain intact and serviceable
without exceeding limits beyond which failure or damage
would occur or loss of proper function. Limit State design has
been adopted in place of Working Stress design.
LINK 1, air insulated (normally), isolation point used to isolate
lines and apparatus from the network. A link shall require
unbolting (or otherwise complex disconnection), of electrical
connections. Refer Disconnect Link.
LOAD FACTOR A multiplier applied to a mechanical load to account for
variability, typ. 1.1 for 'No Wind' Condition and 1.25 for 'Wind'
Condition. Refer AS/NZS 7000 if required
LOAD TRANSFER An enclosed, non-air insulated, pole mounted switch with full
SWITCH load break capability but no inbuilt protection functions.
Also known as a “Load Break Switch”
