Where span length exceeds 150m, a span reduction factor (SRF) shall be applied. This must be determined in accordance with HB C(b)1.
6.
POLES
6.1
General Poles shall be selected such that the static (permanent) and dynamic (wind) load combination is within safe limits. The Stobie Pole consists of two rolled steel sections tapered from a closed spacing at the top to a maximum spacing just below the top of the footing and reducing to a minimum spacing at the bottom. The space between the sections is f illed with concrete and the steel sections a re tied together through concrete with bolts spaced at suitable intervals. The steel sections are considered to carry the full bending and compressive loads. The concrete and bolts provide restraint against buckling of the steel section under compressive load. The bolts also serve to transmit shear loads from the steel to the concrete.
6.2
Design Information Strength in the strong direction is limited to a maximum of 4.5 times the weak direction strength. Wind forces shall be selected accordingly to the worst terrain category likely during the design life of the pole. If the wind load exceeds the weak direction strength by more than 50% then these poles shall be temporarily guyed if the conductors are not strung. Steel sections used are current production structural shapes to AS3678 and the steel rolled to AS3679 - Grade 250 (Corresponding to 250Mpa ultimate yield stress). Designations are: Tapered Flange Beams (TFB) Universal Beams (UB) Universal Columns (UC) Top of footing level is nominally 150mm below ground level. In built up areas and in underground work, the footing level may be 300mm below ground level.
6.3
Pole Selection Poles are commonly described by the duty they perform. They can be termed li ne, angle, deadend, brace and transformer poles. Each individual pole must be examined in relation to its duty to determine that a pole of adequate strength in strong and weak directions is used without the use of guy wires.

TS-107 - Overhead Line Design Standard for Transmission & Distribution Systems 6.4
Loading Parameters on Poles The design loadings reflected to the pole top in both strong and weak direction, should not exceed the strength of the pole in either direction. In addition to the above, the combined loading (K) of the pole should not exceed the factor given in the table below. The combination loading (K) is expressed as:
K Where,
=
+
fs = applied load in strong direction Fs = pole’s design strength in strong direction
fw = applied load in weak direction Fw = pole’s design strength in weak direction
K Factors shall be selected from the following table-2.
Table - 2 Condition Sustained load conditions, without wind Maintenance or erection condition (allow 20% of maximum wind loadings)
K Factor 1.0 1.0
Short Duration Load conditions 1. All poles 1 deg C with no wind At 15 deg C plus wind 2. Line or angle pole 3. Dead-end pole (Temporary or permanent)
1.1 1.0 1.5
Where conductors provide constraint for a “dead-end” pole, ie at tee -off positions, the wind on the pole concrete face and ½ tee-off conductor span may be reduced by up to 50% (depending on the level of constraint) when calculating fw. Strengths of commonly used poles are listed in Appendix B.
6.5
Longitudinal Wind The assessment of the pole strength for wind blowing along the line is a difficult assessment and generally beyond the scope of a basic design process. The significance of the along line wind will depend on the location of the pole, the size of the pole and along line stiffness of the poles and conductor. Many Stobie poles will not be self-supporting and will require the interaction with the conductor to be structurally adequate. Experience gained on transmission lines built throughout South Australia over a 50 year period has demonstrated good performance for wind alo ng the line using the standard methods of design provided the crossarms and extension pieces are c apable of resisting some basic longitudinal loads generated by wind on the pole. However, this does not guarantee that the same level of security has been achieved in the transverse and longitudinal direction for all poles. As a minimum, it is recommended that for poles over 12 m total length where the wind on the pole exceeds the capacity, a longitudinal load equivalent to 50% of the published SA Power Networks load (working) on the pole is a minimum design load to be resisted by any component connecting the pole to the conductors.

Page 8 of 38
TS-107 - Overhead Line Design Standard for Transmission & Distribution Systems This load should be shared between each of the conductors. This along line load is not required to be applied to the pole to determine adequacy in the direction along the line. For poles where the conductor does not deviate, the pole capacity need only be checked against strength in the transverse (strong) direction provided the ratio of strong to weak strength does not exceed 4.5 to 1. The designer should give individual consideration to every pole and make some assessment on the effect of wind in the direction along the line and how the pole is supported. Use of a previous successful standard pole/conductor/crossarm/span length arrangement is considered a reasonable assessment criterion for a basic line design. SA Power Networks may request that the design is given a more sophisticated assessment by an independent designer.
6.6
Standard Location of Poles Poles shall be located in positions which meet the requirements of Network Directive ND-P1 (re-printed in Appendix C)
7.
FOOTINGS
7.1
General Poles shall be selected such that they can withstand loads without the assistance of guy wires. The footing selection shall also be based on the correct assessment of the soil type.
7.2
Soil Types Soils are grouped into three classes, A, B, and C as follows;
Class A
Gravel, compacted sand and rock soils not subject to large variations in volume with moisture content, which offer appreciable resistance to boring and which remain stable after boring.
Note: If the excavation is in rock, the hole should be just large enough to take the pole at the recommended depth, and no reinforcement is necessary in the concrete.
7.3
Class B
Soils subject to large variations in volume with changing moisture content. Soils which offer little cohesion, ie clay.
Class C
Low bearing soil. Requires caisson to support sides during excavation. Examples are swamps, saturated soil and drift sands.
Footing Types The footing type shall be selected from the SA Power Networks Construction Manual (Drawing E1800 series). Alternative footing arrangements may be used if certified by an appropriately qualified civil engineer. The types are: 1. Full strength a. In Situ b. Two Block c. Cylindrical d. Deep Type 2. Unformed Footings The “Unformed” footing is acceptable where it can be certified by an appropriately qualified civil engineer that loads on the pole will not exceed the strength of the pole and cause movement.
An unformed footing may be used when : a. a pole is not to be loaded at more than 50% of its strong direction strength, or b. exceed half the design factor, ie 1.5 for terminal pole equates to 0.75. An unformed footing may NOT be used when for a terminal pole. TS-107

Materials Concrete for footings shall have a minimum compressive strength of 12 MPa at 7 days and 20 MPa at 28 days. A reinforcing cage must be used for all transmission poles.
7.5
Formers Formers shall be used for cored footings. Formers are numbered on size order from 0 to U5, where 0 is the smallest. Refer to SA Power Networks WC series drawings for former dimensions.
7.6
Footing Orientation All pole footings shall be orientated correctly in relation to the centre line of the mains, and shall be positioned so that the pole will have the direction of the resultant forces acting along the strong direction of the pole.
8.
CONDUCTORS
8.1
Definitions for Conductor Tensions Sustained Load means the tension in the conductor and applied to the pole at a temperature which is the mean of the winter season. This load is considered to be applied with no wind.

TS-107 - Overhead Line Design Standard for Transmission & Distribution Systems 8.2
General Vibration induced into the line shall be limited by careful selection of a tension at which the conductor operates for the majority of its design life to ensure that the fatigue endurance limit of the conductor wires is not reached.
8.3
Tension The design conductor tension under the everyday load condition is that the horizontal tension shall be no greater than the percentage of its calculated breaking load as derived from HB C(b)1. Under the short duration load, the tangential tension in the conductor should not exceed 50% of its calculated breaking load. It must be stressed that this is a maximum tension which should be used to avoid damage to the conductor over its expected service lif e. Lesser tensions may be used accordingly to pole capacities or other considerations. Design constants for bare conductors are contained in Appendix A
8.4
Side Swing All designs must include a check to ensure that the conductor will not swing, under the influence of wind, outside the requirements of the Electricity Act and Regulations. This design shall be checked at the conditions stated in clause 2 and 3, eg for rural application in terrain category 2, - T50 + 500pa wind.
8.5
Measurements of As-Built Condition SA Power Networks’ Compliance Inspector shall have at all reasonable times access to the work site, and shall have the power at all reasonable times, to inspect, examine, and test materials and workmanship of the works during its manufacture or installation.
Measurement Sheets are to be completed by the Contractor throughout the progress of the works. The Measurement Sheets shall be submitted with the Certificate of Practical Completion. Measurement Sheets shall be in accordance with Appendix E. Where tests are performed i.e. earth stake resistance readings, they shall be recorded in accordance with the Testing Standard (TS 105) and submitted with the Certificate of Practical Completion.

Network Directive ND J4 All new power lines constructed must conform to the Network Directive, ND J4: ‘Construction of New Power Lines’. A copy of ND J4 can be found in Appendix D.
9.4
Bushfire and Non-Bushfire Risk Areas The Network Directive, ND J4, specifies the construction requirements for Non-Bushfire Risk Areas (NBFRA), Bushfire Risk Areas (BFRA) and High Bushfire Risk Areas (HBFRA). The following table reiterates and expands on these requirements for 11 kV applications.

Refer to Section 4 of this standard for definitions.
9.5
Corrosion Zones and High Pollution Zones Standards for 11, 33 & 66 kV constructions in corrosion zone areas and high pollution areas may vary from those standards that generally apply. These variations of standards can be found throughout the E drawings, eg E1017, HV Insulators, in the Overhead Construction E drawing manual. Other construction drawings show alternatives for high corrosion/pollution. The locations of the States’ corrosion zones are shown in Appendix F, the ‘Atmospheric Corrosion Map of South Australia’. Note, the areas defined as ‘Very Severe Zones’ are regarded as the SA Power Networks Corrosion Zone Areas.
The pollution zones of the State are the same as the corrosion zones, plus, lines constructed near the coast* and any area subject to heavy atmospheric contamination. This m ap is intended to illustrate general areas that may be prone to corrosion or pollutants. Where additional areas are known to be corrosive or have high pollution due to local conditions, appropriate construction standards must be specified. All designs of overhead constructions for corrosion or high pollution zones must specify the appropriate standards. * The depth of the pollution zone from the coast varies (refer to the E drawings), but the minimum depth is 1 km.
9.6
High Load Corridors New overhead road crossings (including services) must be erected so as not to compromise existing clearances along high load corridors. Refer to the Transport SA maps in Appendix G for the location of ‘Principle Routes for Over dimensional Loads’ and contact the High Load Officer, George Hudson, for further details.

When there will be only one driveway adjoining the fence-line, poles will be located as near as practicable to 0.6m from the extension of the fence line dividing the two properties and on the side of the property in which there will not be a driveway adjoining the dividing fence. When a customer requests that a pole be located in a position other than those set out above, it will be placed in an agreed position in front of that customer’s property. Where appropriate, the customer must agree to a service line to an adjoining property crossing their property. Where no land subdivision has taken place, poles will be located in the most suitable positions from local and technical considerations. Position of Transformer Poles In addition to the above, transformer poles are to be located to minimise the visual impact where practical. Also, the location must ensure that access to two sides of the pole is maintained to replace the transformer. Position of Poles at Street Intersections The location of poles erected at street intersections will be determined by the above requirements and :
Giving due consideration to traffic requirements
Considering the needs of the property owner adjacent to the pole
Consideration of public lighting requirements.
6.8
Position of Service Poles The location of service poles will be determined by the above requirements. They will be erected so that the strong direction of the pole will be at right angles to the route of the roadway. 6.9 New poles will be placed in a standard location where practical, only Manager Customer Supply can approve a non-standard pole location. 6.10 Where practicable poles that are located in non-standard positions should be replaced in a standard location as defined in this directive. Otherwise replace in a similar position.

All distribution lines erected for SA Power Networks must be designed and constructed in accordance with the Electricity Act, amended Regulations and the South Australian Distribution Code. SA Power Networks preferred construction method is Bare overhead for HV throughout South Australia. These lines will be designed and constructed in accordance with TS107. SA Power Networks preferred construction method is ABC overhead for LV throughout South Australia. These lines will be designed and constructed in accordance with TS107. Triangulated construction should be used for HV in the BFRA and HBFRA of the State. Other standard overhead construction methods that SA Power Networks employ will be CC, CCT & ABC for HV in the HBFRA’s and BFRA’s. It must be demonstrated that the benefits exceed the initial higher cost to use these construction methods. The benefits to be considered are Customer funding of additional cost and operation and maintenance costs (eg vegetation clearance). The construction method chosen must provide the lowest possible “whole of life” costs after considering, design, construction, vegetation clearance, operation and maintenance costs of the supply line. Future costs will be Net Present Valued using the current SA Power Networks practice. Underground HV and LV mains will be installed in Local Council designated underground mains areas. They will be designed and installed in accordance with TS085, TS087 and TS100. Electricity Supply lines that supply strategic loads (eg major communities, emergency services and essential services) in the HBFRA which require electricity during FDL 3 conditions and satisfy following criteria can be left energised:
TS-107
constructed to transmission voltage design standards eg bare 11kV constructed to 33kV separation and clearances; and/or fully covered electricity distribution systems o

The construction of a new transmission line that will operate at 33kV or greater is subject to the provisions of the Development Act 1993 and the amended Development Regulations. The approval of this new transmission line may require the preparation of an environmental impact statement. Refer to Procedures NGQP 315 and NGQP 663. High Load Corridors (designated roads and highways to facilitate the movement of high loads through out the State) will have a minimum clearance between the carriageway and conductors of 9 metres. Major Loads will be supplied in accordance with Annex D of NGQP 620. All HV & LV constructions arrangements must be in accordance with SA Power Networks E-Drawings. Approval is required from the Network Standards Manager before any of the following are specified and erected on the same structure:
same voltage HV arrangements are combined and a single E-Drawing, showing the combination, does not exist; or E-Drawings do not exist for the proposed arrangement(s).
6.14 All lines over, on or under private property must be protected by a registered easement in accordance with TS 102 “Easement Standard for the Distribution Networks”. 6.15 Clearance to Railway Lines. The preferred method of crossing railway lines is with the use of underground construction methods, however overhead construction is an option. In instance, consultation with and approval from the relevant Rail Authority is required. Refer to NICC-252 for the form” Application to Cross Railways with Power Cables” .
