CABLE SELECTION
CABLE INSULATED CONDUCTORS GUIDELINES For use: in the vicinity of vegetation (present or future) where there is a likelihood of objects falling or blowing onto the mains, eg tree branches, chains where wildlife may otherwise cause outages where mains are likely to be contacted by crane jibs, boat masts or other objects where there is minimal clearance from structures. All-aluminium conductors are recommended for stringing tensions up to and including T110. These have excellent conductivity and since their weight is low, the tensions upon structures are moderate. AAC can suffer from annealing when subjected to excessive heat, eg due to overloading or cane fires.
AAC
ACSR
Aluminium conductors with galvanized steel reinforcing are recommended for stringing tensions of T110 and above. ACSR is stronger than AAC, but has inferior conductivity. ACSR conductors are typically used in rural applications where spans are very long and electrical loads are light. ACSR is more prone to corrosion in polluted environments than AAC, particularly where salt spray is present. NOTE: Due to rising fault levels consult Protection Department for application of Raisin within 12km of a substation.
HDC AND SC/GZ
Hard drawn copper and steel (galvanized) conductors are obsolete and would normally only be specified for sleeving of short sections onto existing mains.

Notes: Category A circuits are standard lines designed for 75C operation (or 55C for certain older lines designed prior to 1980). Category B circuits are HV (mostly 33kV) lines designated for high temperature operation for increased current rating, having similar current ratings for both Summer Day and Winter Night conditions. These lines may operate up to 110C (or 90C for older lines) under summer day conditions. The planning group may provide advice as to which feeders are classified as Category B. Alternatively, information may be obtained from the Equipment Rating (ERAT) Database custodian.

ENGINEERING BACKGROUND
MECHANICAL PROPERTIES Nominal or projected diameter is of relevance when determining cable behaviour under wind conditions. Insulation, if present, is included. Cross-sectional area is important in determining the cable strength, weight and potential elastic stretch. Where a cable has a supporting catenary, only the cross-sectional area of the catenary is included. Current-carrying conductors and insulation, if present, are excluded. Mass determines the amount of sag within a span strung at a given tension, or conversely the amount of tension applied to the supports by a line with a given sag. Minimum breaking load is the ultimate tensile strength of the cable. In general, conductor tension should not exceed 50% of breaking load, even under wind conditions or cold conditions. Modulus of elasticity is a measure of stress or load applied to a material to cause a given strain (deformation or stretch). Coefficient of Linear Expansion is the degree to which a cable expands in length as temperature increases. This determines the relationship between sag/tension and temperature. CABLE DESIGNATIONS Cables may be known by: A code name, eg MOON, which represents 7/4.75 AAC Stranding and material, eg 7/4.75 AAC. Here the 7 is the number of strands and the 4.75 is the strand diameter in millimetres. For older imperial conductor sizes, the diameter may be expressed in terms of inches (eg 7/.104) or as a standard wire gauge (eg 7/12). The smaller the wire gauge number, the larger the diameter. ACSR conductors have a more complex designation because of the combination of materials, eg RAISIN is designated 3/4/2.50, having 3 strands of aluminium and 4 strands of galvanized steel, all with a 2.5mm diameter. 2 Nominal cross-sectional area, eg LVABC95 (95mm LVABC) 2 or CCT120 (120mm covered conductor with added insulation thickness). This is used primarily with insulated conductors and cables. Note that actual cross-sectional area may differ slightly from nominal cross-sectional area. 37/3.00 AAC (SATURN) 7/3.00 AAC (LIBRA)

GLOSSARY OF TERMS
AERIAL BUNDLED CABLE A type of overhead cable available in both LV and HV comprising XLPE insulated compacted aluminium phase conductors laid together to form a bundle. HVABC incorporates a catenary wire for extra support and earthing and either a metallic or nonmetallic screen. LVABC is self supporting. In some cases, a HDPE oversheath is incorporated for improved abrasion resistance. A staywire erected between two poles or between a pole and a bollard. A level surface based on the mean sea level at thirty tide gauges around Australias mainland coast. A means of identifying a site within Australia by coordinate (Northing and Easting). 3, ganged, pole mounted switching device utilising air as an insulation medium. Capable of making, carrying and breaking currents to specified levels under normal conditions. Capabilities are extended through use of arcing horns or Arcmasters which respectively provide limited to full load break ability. Air breaks cannot interrupt fault currents. Refer Isolator Switch. A popular proprietary software Computer-Aided Drafting package suitable for use with Personal Computers. Registered Trademark of AutoDesk, Inc. Addition to a LV switchboard. In general it: includes a GPO with fuse and link may have additional fused supplies is connected between the LV switch (ie. isolator or switch fuse), and the most convenient LV fuse or switch fuse. See Span. The horizontal deviation from centre of powerline conductors subjected to wind forces. A pole specifically for supporting an aerial staywire. Short flexible leads providing electrical continuity across points on the system which are structurally broken. CADASTRAL MAP (Parish Map) CADASTRAL SURVEY PLAN CALCULATED BREAKING LOAD CANTILEVER STAY CAPITAL CONTRIBUTION A map or plan showing details of land tenure (e.g., property boundaries or natural features). A map or plan showing details of land tenure use for lodgement to the titles office. The minimum load (in kN) at which a conductor fails, >breaks= or exceeds its maximum tensile strength. See Sidewalk Stay. A payment which an electricity authority requires a customer to make before starting work on a capital (new, or adding to the value of the authoritys assets) project on behalf of the customer. The payment may fully or partly cover the cost of the works. An instrument for measuring slope. The distance from a datum along the centreline of a roadway. This term and offset are used to make reference to points on roadworks plans. Mechanical switching device capable of making, carrying and breaking currents under normal conditions. Capable of making, carrying for a specified time and breaking currents under specified abnormal conditions (eg. short circuits). Primary control is via external protection relays and manual overrides. Circuit breakers are normally ground mounted. A circuit breaker (fitted with automatic reclose and external protection relays) is operationally similar to a recloser. Circuit breakers may occur in ring main units. Refer Recloser. A combination of links that, close the through circuit and then isolate the apparatus in one sequenced action, or vice versa (eg. Live bypass for single-phase regulators). The LV MEN system extended to include the HV system earthing with voltages up to subtransmission level. See Multiple Earth Neutral.

COMMON USE POLE A pole owned by either the electricity authority or some other authority (e.g., Telstra) used by both parties to support their mains. A pole assessed as unsuitable to remain in service, typically due to diminished strength from white-ant attack, below-ground rot or some other cause. A wire or other form of conducting material suitable for carrying current. See Duct. Pole attachments and their configuration, including crossarms and insulators. See Works Plan. A commercial name for a type of ribbed UPVC conduit. A service pillar fed by underground supply from the opposite side of the road. See Padmounted Transformer. The depth of excavation needed to reduce the existing ground levels to proposed ground levels at a particular point in a roadworks or other construction project. Junction box (typically set in the ground), which permits cables to be connected in various configurations, via use of links. 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. That part of the electricity supply network at voltages below transmission/ subtransmission level (typically 22 kV, 11 kV and LV). See also Distribution Mains or Distribution System. A substation that transforms or converts electrical energy from a higher voltage network to a secondary distribution network (see also Padmounted Transformer). Drop Out fuse (DO) is a fuse where the fuse carrier drops DROP OUT FUSE DUCT into an open position, after the fuse has operated. Use of the term EDO shall be discontinued. A pipe or closed passage formed underground or in a structure and intended to receive one or more cables which may be drawn through them. 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. 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. See Sustained Load. A charge electricity authorities apply to customers to cover the cost of service cable and installation longer than the maximum length provided free of charge. A form electricity authorities use to obtain approval to excavate a local or public authority footpath to erect poles or install underground cables. A circuit (normally HV) emanating from a substation for distributing electric power. A notebook used to record site survey data (e.g., distances, bearings, angles, slope readings and topographical features). The depth of earth to be deposited and compacted to raise existing ground levels to proposed ground levels at a particular point in a roadworks or other construction project. A distance relative to the edge of a footpath (usually the property boundary side) used to describe the position of an underground service or pole. A space in the footpath between two alignments designated by the local or public authority in which a pole or underground service may be located. A commercial name for a type of segmented steel and concrete cover used on cast-in-situ pits in roadways and
