1 Introduction
This construction standard specifies the minimum requirements for Low Voltage overhead
connections to the customers meter box.

This standard is intended to assist the field engineers and technicians to achieve uniform
standard in construction to ensure a satisfactory and economical level of service without
operating restrictions so that the operational errors are minimized for safety and reliability of
the system.

2 Revisions and additions

This construction standard is subject to revision as new material and methods of
construction are developed. The latest revision of this construction standard shall be
applicable.

3 Service conditions and system parameters

For installation of Low Voltage Circuit overhead connections to the customers meter box,
the service conditions and system requirements shall be as given in the latest revision of
SEC General Requirements for All Equipment/Material Specification No. 01-SDMS-01

4 LV Overhead Connections Network Configuration

There are two configurations for customer low voltage overhead connections to the
customers meter box as following:

Part 24: Low Voltage Circuit to Consumer Meter Box SDCS-01-24

4.1 OH main LV feeder with 50 mm2 QUADRUPLEX conductor as service drop

connection.

This type of configuration is shown in Figure 1. For this condition, Quadruplex

Conductor 120 mm2 shall be used as main OH LV feeder from PMT LV cabinet to
customer location, and Quadruplex Conductor 50 mm2 shall be used as service drop
connection from that location to the customer meter/meters box.
