NOTES TO TABLES 3.1 AND 3.2
1 The clearances in Table 3.1 and 3.2 are based on the climatic conditions described in Clause 2.4.
2 The phase-to-earth clearances given in Column 6 of Table 3.1 are for unfavourable configurations of live and earthed parts, i.e. the ‘rod-structure’ arrangement, and may be
used for determining clearances to earth from live parts of any configuration.
3 The phase-to-earth clearances given in Column 6 of Table 3.2 for U m >245 kV r.m.s. are for ‘conductor-structure’ configurations normally employed at the higher voltages.
(For background information on electrode configurations, refer to CIGRE Technical Brochure 72-1992, Guidelines for the evaluation of dielectric strength of external
insulation, and to AS 1824.2.)
4 The higher values shown in parentheses in Column 4 are included to cover those distribution installations that may be exposed to higher than normal overvoltages or where a
higher level of safety or withstand is required. For other installations the lower values are preferred.
5 The values shown in parentheses in Column 6 correspond to the rated lightning impulse withstand voltages shown in parentheses in Column 4.
6 For U m <36 kV r.m.s., it may be desirable to increase the phase-to-earth and phase-to-phase clearances where the presence of birds or vermin could cause a hazard or for
constructional or other reasons.
7 The non-flashover distances given in Column 8 include a margin of 10% up to an air clearance of 1300 mm in Column 6 and 6% for 1400 mm and above to allow for variations
in construction dimensions. This margin may be deleted when the conditions for carrying out the work are adequate to ensure that the minimum phase-to-earth air clearance is
observed in all cases.
8 If considered desirable, the section safety clearance given in Column 10 may be increased to 3000 mm as a minimum for air clearances up to 380 mm, in Column 6.

‘Transport routes, their load capacity, height and width shall be adequate for movements of

Within high voltage installations, the passage of vehicles or other mobile equipment
beneath or in proximity to live parts (without protective measures) is permitted in
accordance with regulatory requirements where they exist. Where no regulatory
requirements exist the following conditions shall be met whilst vehicles are in transit (see
Figures 5.1, 5.2 and 5.3 and refer to Clause 3.3 and Tables 3.1 and 3.2 for safety
clearances):
(a) Where vehicles which personnel do not sit or stand upon or within, whilst the vehicle
is in transit are used for transporting equipment clearance T = N + 100 (minimum
500 mm) shall apply between the vehicle, and its load and any live part.
Section safety clearance (S) shall be provided between the operator’s walkway and
any live part at all times. (Refer to Figure 5.1)
(b) Where personnel must remain within the cab of the vehicle whilst it is in transit
clearance T = N + 100 (minimum 500 mm) shall apply between the vehicle, with open
doors, and its load, to live parts, at all times. (Refer Figure 5.2).
Personnel may remain in vehicles or mobile equipment only if there are adequate
protective measures on the vehicle or mobile equipment, for example the cab roof, to
ensure that the danger zone defined above cannot be infringed.
(c) Where mobile equipment can be moved whilst being stood or sat upon, the greater of
the following clearances shall be applied (Refer Figure 5.3):
(i) Section safety clearance (S) is applied from any part of the vehicle or mobile
plant where a person would normally sit or stand to live parts.
(ii) Clearance X = N + 1900 is applied horizontally from the extremities of the
vehicle when against the kerb line or side of the access way to live parts and
exposed conductors.
Procedures will be required to ensure safe passage of vehicles and mobile plant.
