The Queensland Work Health and Safety Act 2011 provides the framework to protect the health,
safety, and welfare of all workers at work, and of all other people who might be affected by the
work.
Under the WH&S Act everyone has duties (obligations), and the duties for a person conducting a
business or undertaking are defined and involve:
management or control of workplaces
management or control of fixtures, fittings or plant at workplaces
design of plant, substances or structures
manufacture plant, substances or structures
Importation of plant, substances or structures
supply plant, substances or structures

Reasonably Practicable
Section 17 Management of Risks of the Work Health and Safety Act 2011 states A duty imposed on a person to ensure health and safety requires the person
(a) to eliminate risks to health and safety, so far as is reasonably practicable; and
(b) if it is not reasonably practicable to eliminate risks to health and safety, to minimise those risks
so far as is reasonably practicable.
Safety in Design is defined as the integration of hazard identification and risk assessment and
control methods early in the design process to eliminate, and if this is not reasonably practicable,
minimise the risk to health and safety throughout the life of the product being designed.
The Designer must document using the Safety in Design Risk Assessment Form any hazards or
risks associated with the design, construction, operation, maintenance, and decommission of the
structure in the design development phase. These risks must be assessed, and any residual risks
assessed as higher than a low risk must be documented in the Simple Project Risk Management
Plan. For design works undertaken by an Ergon Energy Designer, the Designer will supply a
Simple Project Risk Management Plan (SPRMP) detailing any specific risks or hazards not
covered by Ergon Energys Standard Safe Work Method Statements (SWMS), Standard Work
Practices (SWP), or Work Instructions for identified risks or hazards for the construction work.

PROJECT DELIVERY
8.1
Project Phases
To provide an integrated design, all design deliverables for all design disciplines must be provided
for each phase of a project.
The Ergon Energy project delivery model comprises four distinct phases being:
(a) Concept Phase
This phase normally commences with the issue of a Recommended Works Report (RWR) and is
complete at the initiation of an approved project (PIA).
The milestone for this phase is WPIA (Works Planning Project Initiation Advice).
The concept design can consist of a number of options and has the following deliverables:

8.2
Projects in Ergon Energy can be generally classified into 3 types, being:Site Acquisition
Acquisition projects include new substation sites and line easements. The Designer may be
involved as a Subject Matter Expert to assess the suitability of potential substation sites. In
assessing a potential substation site, the Designer should consider the requirements as detailed in
Ergon Energy Standard SS-1-1.4 Substation Design Requirements Section 25 Site Requirements.
Refer also section 11.3 of this manual.
Greenfield
Greenfield projects are projects at new substation sites where there is no existing electrical
infrastructure. All greenfield projects must be designed strictly in accordance with the Zone
Substation Standards.
Brownfield
Brownfield projects are projects at established sites where there exists energised, electrical
infrastructure. Brownfield projects must be designed generally in accordance with the Zone
Substation Standards while considering the interface to the existing High Voltage Plant and
Secondary Systems equipment. Brownfield considerations for the Designer on how to manage the
interface between new and existing plant and equipment can be found in this manual.
8.3
The Designer must consider the constructability of the project design with regards to the
construction costs and duration, Network security, and customer outage durations during
construction. At the completion of the client verification drawings showing the final arrangement for
the project, (Single Line Diagrams, General Arrangements, and Feeder Arrangements), the
Designer in conjunction with the Project Manager must consult with the Commissioning group and
Construction Coordinators to assist in the development of the project staging plans and
commissioning schedules. Additional details and requirements can be found in the Ergon Energy
MN000301R171 Test and Commissioning Manual.
The project staging plans that are developed may require additional designs, including staged
SLDs, temporary GAs, and staged secondary systems designs to be provided to ensure that at
Page 17 of 120
Ergon Energy Corporation Limited ABN 50 087 646 062
Ergon Energy Queensland Pty Ltd ABN 11 121 177 802
Drawings
A design deliverable for all substation projects are completed sets of design drawings. The design
is not considered complete until all project design drawings are approved in the EDMS and
transitioned to either the Released for Construction state for construction drawings, or the Final
Release state for As Commissioned projects. Specific requirements for the management, types of
substation drawings, and drafting can be found in section 9 of this manual.
The Designer must ensure all project drawings issued for a project are accompanied by a
document transmittal note (refer NI000401F104 Transmittal Note) and managed in accordance
with Ergon Energy Work Instruction NI000401R117 Substation Controlled Drawings.
8.5
Bill of Materials
It is the Designers responsibility to collate from the design drawings all the materials required for
the project (except Civil) and include these on a Bill of Materials (BOM).
The BOM must include all of the required information to enable procurement and collection of the
items as needed and must be in a format compatible with NI000402F100 Equipment and Materials
Procurement List.
Some items may have already been selected during the concept development phase and ordered
to meet the project delivery timeframe.
The Designer must take design responsibility to ensure the suitability of all plant and materials for
the project, including the pre-selected items. Accordingly, the Designer must check and verify the
suitability of the materials on order and highlight to the Design Manager any discrepancy as early
as possible in the design process.
To ensure standardisation of equipment and materials for all projects, the Designer must specify
materials from Ergon Energys period contract and stock items in the first instance. A catalogue of
substation materials, including stock codes is available to assist the Designer. Details of any items
selected for the project that are not stock items must be forwarded to the Design Manager for
possible stock coding.
The Designer generally will not specify on the BOM minor materials and consumable items such as
bolts, nuts, screws, cable & wire numbering ferrules, terminal lugs for LV cables, miscellaneous
terminals, LV cable clamps and ties, grease, cleaning liquids etc. These will normally be supplied
by the Constructor.
The BOM must include the responsibility of supply for all items. For some items, this may need to
be decided on a case by case basis in consultation with the Project Manager.
The Designer must provide to the Project Manager or Design Manager an updated version of the
Bill of Materials on request and at each design review.
Page 18 of 120
Ergon Energy Corporation Limited ABN 50 087 646 062
Ergon Energy Queensland Pty Ltd ABN 11 121 177 802
Material Ordering
The Designer must ensure that any items on the BOM with lead times that may impact on the
project delivery timeframe are identified to the Project Manager or Design Manager for ordering as
early as possible in the design process. This will necessitate that the Designer (or Tech Rep for
contract works) will be responsible for placing orders for major plant items on period contract and
other items with long lead time delivery.
The Designer must also consult with the Project Manager in relation to ordering of items with
medium lead time (eg. protection relays, control cables, etc), as these may need to be ordered
sufficiently ahead of construction approval, in order to enable prompt commencement of panel and
modular building manufacture etc.
On commencement of construction, the Constructor will take over responsibility for maintaining the
BOM, keeping it up to date with details of equipment and materials ordered, received, etc.
Procurement of any miscellaneous items indicated on the BOM as still unordered, plus all
consumable items is the responsibility of the Constructor.
Refer also to Clause 8.4 of NI000401R122 Ergon Energy Substation Construction Manual for
further information in relation to the Construction phase of project works.
8.7
Work Specifications
A Works Specification must be produced for all projects and is a mandatory design deliverable.
The Works Specification contains or references the Design and/or Construction requirements that
apply to the Design Contractor and/or Constructor performing the Works including:
Project Overview
Electrical Design Scope of Works
Civil Design Scope of Works
Civil Construction Scope of Works
Electrical Construction Scope of Works
Electrical Test and Commissioning Scope of Works
General Requirements
Refer to Ergon Energy Substation Works Specification Template
The completed Works Specification for a project must be allocated an EDMS document number,
entered into the EDMS, and checked/approved in accordance with the Substation Design approval
process. The EDMS must be used to track all updates and subsequent revisions of the project
Works Specification.

9.1
All drawings are to be stored in the Ergon Energy Electronic Document Management System
(EDMS). This database system provides a means of electronic storage, management and control.
Its use is crucial to the Quality Management System for substation design work as it provides a
means of electronically approving designs. The standard drawing borders have interactive
database field links with the EDMS for automatic population of title block information. The EDMS is
linked to other software programs such as Microstation, AutoCAD, Word and Excel. The Designer
must be familiar with and follow the EDMS Manuals when performing design works. Refer to
References Section 4.3 for EDMS Manuals.
9.2
9.2.1
The drawings required for a substation project must generally be in accordance with those as listed
in ANNEX J SUBSTATION DRAWING LIST. Substation Project Design Drawings include Single
Line Diagrams (SLDs) General Arrangements (GAs) in plans and elevations, material lists,
earthing, conduit, foundations and steelwork details, panel layouts, schematics, connection
diagrams and cable schedules.
Single Line Diagrams illustrate the logical functioning of the primary plant and secondary
protection, control, indications and communications. General arrangements describe the physical
primary plant and electrical connections. Layouts, schematics, connection diagrams and schedules
detail the secondary equipment, locations and terminations.
9.2.2
Drawing Approvals
In accordance with the requirements of the Professional Engineers Act 2002 (Qld), it is mandatory
that all design be either carried out by an appropriately qualified and experienced Registered
Professional Engineer of Queensland (RPEQ), or be directly supervised by the RPEQ.
Ergon Energy requires further that all new or modified drawings produced as part of a project
design must be individually approved (certified) by the appropriate RPEQ, who having had
reasonably close oversight of the production of the design, will be familiar with it.
For internally produced designs, the relevant RPEQ or delegate provides approval by transitioning
the drawings to a Released for Construction or Final Release state in the EDMS, as
appropriate. This action records the RPEQ or delegates name and approval date in the EDMS and
populates the design drawing signature block.
For externally produced designs by contractors, the contractor must provide the RPEQ certification
via an electronic stamp that will remain on the drawing, independent of the transitioning of the
drawing through the EDMS. The stamp must include RPEQ number, date, revision number and
signature.
When an existing approved (RPEQ certified) Ergon Energy standard design is used for a project,
eg. standard steel supports and associated footings, there is no requirement to re-certify these
individual standard designs, however it is a requirement that the application of the standard
designs into the project has RPEQ certification. i.e. the Substation General Arrangement, plus any
modified structure and footing designs. This is necessary to confirm that the structures have been
selected appropriately to ensure that the combinations of footings, structures and HV equipment
are appropriate to meet the required design criteria for wind and short circuit loading, electrical
clearances, substation layout, soil type, etc.

Prior to commencement of detailed design, the set of high level drawings listed below must be
submitted to the Project Owner for Verification as per process document NI000401W103 Produce
and Verify Concept Design.
The required drawings are:
Single Line Diagram Plant
Single Line Diagram Operating
Single Line Diagram Protection and Metering
Single Line Diagram Communications and SCADA
Switchyard General Arrangement
These drawings will be based on the initial concept drawings provided for the project, subject to
any minor modifications approved by the Project Owner.
Prior to submission for Verification, the design drawings must be checked and approved by the
Design team, including the relevant RPEQ approval.
Each drawing must be stamped with a red Client Verification stamp and forwarded via the Design
Manager (or Tech Rep).
9.3
Equipment Identification
The general requirements for substation electrical design drawings with respect to equipment
identification codes, voltage colours for single line operating diagrams, indicator light colours, small
wire numbering and small wire colouring must be in accordance with Ergon Energy Standard
SS-1-1.2 Substation Standard Equipment Identification. This standard must be applied to all new
greenfield substation designs or where total replacement is occurring. Where a whole section is
being replaced or reworked, such as a new panel or bay, it is desirable for this standard to be
applied.
Operational equipment identification as shown on the substation SLDO must be in accordance with
Ergon Energy STNW1169 Standard for Network Operational Identification and Naming. This
standard must be applied to all new greenfield substation designs or where changes to 50% or
more of the primary plant at a specific voltage level is occurring. It is not necessary to change the
operational identification of all primary plant within the substation at all voltage levels. A small
change at a brownfield site will continue to employ the existing in-situ identification convention.
9.4
9.4.1
CAD
CAD Standards - General
All Ergon Energy Electrical Design Drawings must be produced using Bentley Microstation.
Conversion from AutoCAD or other formats is not acceptable. Other drawings (e.g. Mechanical
and Civil) may be produced in AutoCAD format.
All drawings must be clear and legible without imperfection of any sort in the printing or
reproduction.
Dimensions of drawings must be in accordance with AS1000, the International Systems of Units
(SI) and its application.
Drawings must conform to the following Australian Standards:
AS1100 Technical Drawing
AS1101 Graphical Symbols for General Engineering
AS1102 Graphical Symbols for Electrotechnical Documentation
AS3883 Computer Graphics Computer Aided Design (CAD)

Ergon Energy Corporation Limited ABN 50 087 646 062
Ergon Energy Queensland Pty Ltd ABN 11 121 177 802
Hybrid Drawings
A hybrid drawing consists of a raster file (scanned image of a drawing) linked to a vector file (CAD
file). The Bentley Descartes program operates with Microstation to create hybrids. Physical rasters
must be entered 1:1 in the design model and electrical rasters must be incorporated in the sheet
model. Include the raster revision information.
When working with a raster, ensure that the original file is added to the EDMS prior to beginning
current works to maintain design history. Consider the possibility of redrawing a hybrid as a
complete vector file only. A good rule of thumb is if it will take less than eight hours to redraw then
redraw is viable. Other considerations are the impact of future works and the importance of the
drawing itself such as SLDs. Discuss the viability with the Project Design Manager.
9.4.3
Ergon Energy has a configuration for Microstation that standardises the way CAD drawings are
created. When the program starts and closes a macro is run in the background that sets the
workspace to a normal status that includes changing to the sheet model view, removing any view
rotations, fitting all elements to the screen and many other actions that are listed in the Ergon
Energy CAD Standards Manual.
The substation design workspace includes standard text, lines and dimension tools that make the
CAD drafting process more efficient. Special line styles are used for SLDs that symbolise functions
such as current and voltage transformer supplies or tripping of circuit breakers. These are
accessible from the Microstation task dialog box which consists of tool palettes that are docked on
the left hand side of the Microstation application window. Standard borders are accessible from the
Ergon menu at the top of the Microstation application window.
9.4.4
Seed Files
Seed files are base Microstation templates that include the Ergon Energy CAD Standards. For an
electrical or physical drawing the Ergon_seedgen_mm.dgn file must be used. If the drawing is of a
large site layout then the Ergon_seedgen_m.dgn may be used.
9.4.5
Cells
Cells are created symbols drafted in Microstation to make the CAD process more efficient. They
include relays, contacts, switches, LEDs as well as items of major plant such as current
transformers and disconnectors. Commonly used cells have been made available in the
Microstation task dialog box. Other cells may be accessed using the menu selections of Elements
cells. This gives the user access to folders that have cells stored in them.
Page 22 of 120
Ergon Energy Corporation Limited ABN 50 087 646 062
Ergon Energy Queensland Pty Ltd ABN 11 121 177 802
When creating a new drawing the latest approved seed files must be used. When creating a new
drawing an appropriately sized border is chosen and the design is begun. The drawing must
comply with all Drafting Standards, Substation Standards, Design Templates and Manuals. All
Design Drawings must be added to the EDMS as per EEAD-0003 EDMS Author Manual.
9.4.7
Revising a previously released or approved drawing must be done through the EDMS. The EDMS
will automatically perform the revision, update the database information and rename the file. Within
the EDMS you still need to manually change the data fields Created By and Project Number. The
drawing can then be checked out, worked on and checked back into the EDMS on completion.
Refer to EEAD-0003 EDMS Author Manual.
When revising an existing drawing the latest approved seed files must be applied.
All drawings that are being revised must have new borders applied. Before a new border is placed
the existing border must be removed using the Ergon menu items. The new border database
fields contain default information. To avoid overwriting the EDMS data the drawing must be closed
but not checked back in. Open the dgn file using Microsoft Explorer and the EDMS link macro will
run which will automatically populate the border with the correct EDMS database fields.
9.4.8
Clouding
Clouding is used to identify or highlight on a drawing where changes or additions are required. If
the drawing is of a completely new panel with all new equipment then no clouding is required.
However, if the panel is existing but all the equipment is new then the new equipment must be
clouded. The clouding should encompass only the new or changed components. This is very
important as it is the only way that Construction and Commissioning Staff can ascertain what work
is needed to be done.
To cloud an entire terminal block when only adding one terminal to the block is misleading and will
make the construction service providers believe and estimate the addition of the entire block that
may have CT or VT circuits that need to be accessed and isolated.
When checking and approving drawings clouding must be rigorously reviewed. Microstation
includes a cloud tool that can draw a cloud or can change a series of joined lines into a cloud. To
maintain a consistent look and feel across the drawing only use the one radius size for all clouding.
This is easily achieved using the tool that is available from the Microstation task dialog box.
Accurate clouding results in clear design interpretation for approvals, estimating, construction,
commissioning and markedly reduces the number of support calls when construction service
providers are on-site.
9.4.9
Multiple projects may occur at a substation at the same time. This can be due to project time
delays, failed in service projects or project staging that has not gone as planned. The Designer
must take care in the management of drawing revisions, clouding, document states, and the
tracking of the As-Built mark-ups.
When multiple projects require design changes on the same drawing, each separate project must
be identified by a revision triangle which is placed inside or adjacent to the cloud. These should be
grouped with the clouds to simplify removal when doing the as-built drawings.
Page 23 of 120
Ergon Energy Corporation Limited ABN 50 087 646 062
Ergon Energy Queensland Pty Ltd ABN 11 121 177 802
On receipt of the as-built drawings, the Released for Construction Drawings must be up-revved in
the EDMS, and the clouding for only the projects where the as-built drawings have been completed
must be removed. All other clouding for future projects must remain on the drawing. If the as-built
drawings returned are for more than one project at the site, then each project must be referenced
separately in the revision note.
As-Built Drawings with future project works must be transitioned back to a Released for
Construction state. At no time must a Final Release Drawing contain revision clouds for future
project work. Drawings that have been amended as-built and still contain future project works must
be issued back to field crews and to the substation as the latest record of completed works. It is
suggested that these drawings be identified on the document transmittal as not being in a Final
Release state. All previously issued drawings for future construction works must be destroyed and
replaced with the current revision.
9.4.10 Releasing drawings for construction
All designs must be checked and approved by authorised staff when completed. They are then
transitioned in the EDMS to a Released for Construction state. Drawings are printed, collated into
drawing sets with a transmittal and sent to the Project Manager for distribution to Service Providers
and Stakeholders. Refer to NI000401W105: Produce Design Outputs Work Instruction Manual.
9.4.11 CAD Drafting Hints and Tips
A number of specific hints and tips for Ergon Energy CAD users is included in ANNEX A CAD
HINTS AND TIPS. These drafting tips are predominantly for electrical designers using Bentley
Microstation and are included to provide assistance and clarification to the Designer to produce
drawings to the required CAD quality. They should be used by the Designer to supplement the
Ergon Energy CAD manual, not as a replacement to the CAD standards.
9.5
Substation Single Line Diagrams (SLDs) are a simple, one line representation of the installed
substation HV plant and the associated secondary systems.
The Substation SLDs are initially produced for a project during concept phase and form part of the
drawing package required to be submitted for customer verification before detailed design
commences.
Brownfield Site Considerations
Where significant augmentation work is being undertaken at an existing substation, the Designer
should give consideration to producing a new set of SLDs to the latest standards for the
substation. Examples include full or significant protection upgrades, replacing or installing new
SCADA systems, major extensions to switchyard, rebuilds of existing substations.
Page 24 of 120
Ergon Energy Corporation Limited ABN 50 087 646 062
Ergon Energy Queensland Pty Ltd ABN 11 121 177 802
Switchboard circuit breakers can be used to earth feeders, transformer cables and bus sections.
These earthing positions must be shown on the SLD for staff to operate the equipment correctly.
Page 25 of 120
Ergon Energy Corporation Limited ABN 50 087 646 062
Ergon Energy Queensland Pty Ltd ABN 11 121 177 802
Reclosers are a small pole mounted circuit breaker that can contain in-built protection systems and
communications. When they are used within substations their internal CTs and CVTs and any
associated external CTs and VTs must be shown correctly on the substation SLDs.
Example:
Plant Manuals
Operations and maintenance manuals for substation plant are stored in the Ergon Energy library in
either hard copy or electronic format. It is the responsibility of the substation standards group to
ensure the manuals and any associated test reports for all period contract plant items are
submitted to the library for registration and storage. It is the responsibility of the relevant design
group to ensure all other purchased plant items, i.e. those not covered under a period contract, are
submitted and registered in the library.
To register a library document for substation plant:
the Designer creates an EDMS document against the relevant asset identifier for the
equipment. This EDMS document number becomes the document registration number for the
copy of the document held by the library. Plant manuals and test reports are registered in the
EDMS against the substation asset identifier for any plant that is considered as being specific to
the particular substation, i.e. switchboards, capacitor banks, AFLC plant, etc. Any standard,
period contract plant, or plant not specific to the substation site, will have the manuals and test
reports registered in the EDMS against the specific plant asset identifier, i.e. disconnectors,
current and voltage transformer, circuit breakers, power transformers etc.
a Transmittal Note and Registration form must be completed and added to the EDMS document
record. This form records all of the relevant plant data to assist registration and searching of the
document in the library system. Refer to BS001603F100 Transmittal Note - eLibrary Storage
and/or Registration Form
all copies of the manual or test report (hard copy and/or electronic) are sent with the Transmittal
Note and Registration form to the library
the library will register the documents in e-library, and send out copies to the relevant groups as
identified on the transmittal note.
9.7
Equipment Records
The registration and identification of the locations of substation plant assets in the Ergon Energy
asset register is developed initially from the substation SLDO. The Designer must ensure all new,
and any changes to existing substation SLDOs are communicated to the Network data group for
creation/update of the Smallworld asset, and subsequent upload to the Ellipse asset register. This
is essential to ensure that the commissioned plant assets are registered against the correct
position (eg. feeder bay, phase etc.) in the substation.

As-Built Drawings
A controlled process exists for the issue of Project Design Drawings and the return of the As-Built
mark ups. This process must be used for all Ergon Energy projects and it ensures drawing sets
and mark up procedures are standardised. A summary of the process is:
Project Management receive the same drawings sets irrespective where the design is
completed.
At the development phase all design service providers produce the same range of drawings.
The Controlled Drawings belong to the Service Provider carrying out the actual activities and
the individual work groups.
All Construction Service Providers transfer mark ups to master copy and sign master copy prior
to completion of work.
All Test Service Providers obtain mark ups from master copy prior to testing, transfer mark ups
to master copy prior to completion and sign master copy.
With the exceptions on the SLDO all work groups will get all revisions so they are aware of
changes on the project

The switchyard bay spacing and HV plant separation distances for greenfield substations, and new
switchgear bay extensions to existing substations, must be in accordance with the Ergon Energy
substation standard drawings and Ergon Energy standard SS-1-3.1 Clearances in Air, Table 2 Bay and Busbar Spacings.
For 132kV Bay and Plant spacings, refer:
913703-02 Z1-63 Zone Substation 132/22kV Substation General Arrangement
For 66kV Bay and Plant spacings refer:
913703-02 Z6-32 Zone Substation 66/11kV General Arrangement.
The location of underground cables must be clearly indicated on substation underground services
and cable route drawings. Cross sections showing cable arrangement must be detailed on cable
trench section drawings. In order to minimise induced voltages, cable ducts and cable runs must,
wherever possible, be designed to be a right angles to the HV busbars. Where parallel runs are
unavoidable, the multicore cables must be separated from the busbars by as large a distance as
practicable.
13.2 Plant Ratings
The requirements for the ratings of substation primary plant and equipment including power
transformers, circuit breakers, disconnecting switches, earthing switches, current transformers,
voltage transformers, indoor switchgear, surge arresters, insulators, rigid busbars, bare conductors
and insulated HV cables are specified in the Ergon Energy Standard SS-1-4.1 Primary Plant
Ratings.
The Designer must ensure the plant ratings for all project plant and equipment meet the specified
requirements in the Project Scope Statement. Any deviations to the standard plant and equipment
ratings which are not specifically stated in the Project Scope Statement must be approved by the
Project Sponsor.
13.3 Power Transformers
Power transformers used on Ergon Energys network are purchased from period contract and are
listed in ANNEX B PERIOD CONTRACT PLANT, with the design parameters for the transformer
specified in the Project Scope Statement. These parameters must as a minimum include:
Voltage ratio
Page 40 of 120
Ergon Energy Corporation Limited ABN 50 087 646 062
Ergon Energy Queensland Pty Ltd ABN 11 121 177 802
All circuit breaker functionality, including controls, status, alarms, and trip circuit monitoring must
be designed and installed in accordance with the Ergon Energy SS-2-3.1 SCADA Standard Points
List. If the associated protection relays do not have the capability for trip circuit monitoring, the
design must include termination of this circuitry in the protection and control panel for future use.
13.5 Current Transformers, Including CT Marshalling Box
High voltage current transformers used on Ergon Energys network must be from the current period
contract and are listed in ANNEX B PERIOD CONTRACT PLANT. If a special, non-standard
installation is required to suit existing substation installations, e.g. to meet fault levels, match
existing CT performance or ratios, pollution ratings, space restrictions etc., then this must be
approved by Ergon Energy Substation Standards Group before proceeding with design and
procurement.

The standard CT polarity convention is that the P1 terminal is installed on the bus side. This
polarity must be shown on the Single Line Diagram Protection and Metering.
CT Marshalling Boxes
A CT secondary marshalling box must be provided for each three phase set of CTs. The
marshalling box must be made of either stainless steel or aluminium. The construction and layout
of internally mounted equipment must be in accordance with the Substation Standards.
The marshalling box must also have a rotating handle, not a key type access mechanism. The
secondary terminals of all CT cores must be connected by multicore cables to the terminals in the
marshalling box. These cables must be a minimum of 8 cores with primary & secondary protection
cores in different cables. Temporary earths must be made for each 3 phase set of CT cores in the
marshalling box. This provision should take the form of a suitable link type terminal block with plugin feature with the temporary earth connected to the cubicle earth bar.
Refer to EESS-10224-01 to -06 Stainless Steel CT Marshalling Box
Brownfield Site Considerations
When replacing high voltage current transformers in existing substations, the Designer must take
into account the following design considerations:
(a)
Page 43 of 120
Ergon Energy Corporation Limited ABN 50 087 646 062
Ergon Energy Queensland Pty Ltd ABN 11 121 177 802
Page 45 of 120
Ergon Energy Corporation Limited ABN 50 087 646 062
Ergon Energy Queensland Pty Ltd ABN 11 121 177 802
A new VT marshalling box in accordance with the current ZSS Drawings must be installed.
The exceptions to this replacement are:
- if the physical condition of the existing box is still satisfactory and internal space permits,
then a new fit-out can be undertaken. The marshalling box fit-out must be in accordance
with the current ZSS Drawings.
- if the existing marshalling box is used for the marshalling of other related bay circuitry
and considerable design and construction would be required.
Control cables between the voltage transformer and the voltage transformer marshalling
box must be replaced in accordance with the ZSS Template Drawings.
Control cables between the voltage transformer marshalling box and the substation
protection and control panels should be replaced in accordance with the ZSS Template
Drawings. The exception to this is if existing control cables are in accordance with the
current Control Cable Standard and have sufficient length to terminate in new control box
without intermediate junction boxes, or substantial construction work would be required to
replace the control cables.
(b) Replacing Two Phases of a VT Installation
If the project scope is requiring only two phases of a VT Installation to be replaced, then the
Designer should question the validity of this scope with the Project Manager, Project Sponsor and
Asset Manager as it can be more economical and prudent to replace all three phases.
(c) Replacing Only One Phase of a VT Installation
Footing and structure must be assessed in accordance with Section 11.2.5 of this manual
The existing marshalling box may be re-used. There must be adequate space in the
existing marshalling box to ensure the termination of all new VT secondary cores. There is
no requirement to upgrade the existing VT cores, including the installation of secondary VT
fuses to current Standards.
Control cables between the voltage transformer and the voltage transformer marshalling
box must be replaced in accordance with the ZSS Template Drawings.
13.8 HV Switchboards
High voltage switchboards used on Ergon Energys network must be from the current Period
Contract and are listed in ANNEX B PERIOD CONTRACT PLANT.
When specifying a switchboard from period contract items, the Designer must select the following:
Configuration of switchboard, including the position and required number of incomer, feeder,
and bus section circuit breakers, bus earthing, bus risers and VTs. The configuration for all
greenfield projects must be in accordance with the Ergon Energy Standard Substation SLDs.

All metallic cases of instruments, control switches, relays etc, mounted on control panels or in
cubicles, must be effectively earthed to the nearest earth bar with stranded copper
green/yellow insulated conductors of not less than 2.5mm2.
All LV power cables (except for building lighting and power circuits to AS 3000) must have
double brass tape screens with both ends of the screens bonded to earth via a suitable earth
bar. Earthing conductors for power cable screens must be stranded, green/yellow insulated
copper of minimum cross sectional area of 2.5 mm2.
All multicore control cables must have double brass tape screens with both ends of the screens
bonded to earth via a suitable earth bar. Earthing conductors for control cable screens must be
stranded, green/yellow insulated copper of minimum cross sectional area of 2.5 mm2.
The earth bars in each individual protection/control, AC Systems, DC Systems and other
panels must be connected to the main earth bar using a conductor of equivalent cross
sectional area to the main earth bar. The main earth bar is typically installed in the overhead or
under floor cable tray.. The common earthing conductor which provides the main earth bar may
be either stranded, green/yellow insulated, copper conductor of minimum cross sectional area
of 70mm2 laid in and regularly bonded to the cable tray, or tinned copper strap with minimum
cross section of 25mm x 2.5mm, regularly bolted to the cable tray.
All separate sections of cable tray must be bonded by a continuous earth bar, with the earth
bar connected to the main earth grid at a minimum of two connection points, one from either
end of the cable tray. For very long cable trays/ladders additional connections to the earthing
system should be provided.
All control building metalwork, including door and window frames, roof, metal trusses etc must
be directly connected to the main earth grid and not connected via any equipment earthing, eg
cable tray main earth bars. Bonding conductors for the building metalwork may be either
stranded, green/yellow insulated, copper conductor of minimum cross sectional area of 35mm2,
or bare copper strap with minimum cross section of 25mm x 2.5mm.
The Designer must provide suitable drawings showing the earthing arrangement and earthing
connections of the building and the building equipment.

For CT and VT test links the wiring from the CT or VT is connected to the top of the link and
the relay is connected to the bottom. This convention ensures that applied CT shorting
leads are above the test instrument leads and hence are not in the way when reconnecting
test leads. The exception to this is ESAA metering test blocks, where the CT shorts are
integral to the test block and are on the bottom of the links, hence the wiring from the CT
(and also VT) must be connected to the bottom of the link.
For supply fuses and links, the positive and negative supply side is connected to the bottom
of the fuse or link and the panel is connected to the top. This is considered an industry
standard, provides consistency with manufacturers of MCBs etc., and provides fuse
protection for accidental contact from falling objects on to live rear terminal studs.
For trip isolation and initiating links, the relay contact initiating the trip is connected to the
bottom of the link and the item being operated (CB trip coil, multi trip relay, or initiated
protection relay) is connected to the top of the link. This convention is consistent with the
CT and VT test links in that the field (or outgoing panel) wiring is on the top side of the link,
with the connected test instruments on the bottom of the link.

All trip circuits to the trip coil must be disconnected when switch is in Off position
Control trips via SCADA or manual push buttons/switches must be hard-wired directly to the trip
coil circuit, and not via protection relays. i.e. It is not permissible to utilise serial communications
between the SCADA and the protection relay for circuit breaker control tripping.
When main and backup protection supplies and trip coils are available, the manual control trips
must be wired to the backup trip coil circuit.
Trip Circuit Supervision (TCS) circuitry must be designed and included for all circuit breakers in
new Greenfield Substations. Both main and backup coils must be monitored in the circuit breaker
closed and open states. TCS is implemented in the main and backup protection relays in
accordance with the Standard Template Drawings and Protection Application Guides. There is no
requirement to install additional relays for the purpose of providing trip circuit supervision functions.
A simplified representation of the TCS circuitry is as follows:

All close circuits to the close coil must be disconnected when switch is in Off position
Control close via SCADA or manual push buttons/switches must be hard-wired directly to the close
coil circuit, and not via protection relays. i.e. It is not permissible to utilise serial communications
between the SCADA and the protection relay for circuit breaker control closing.
When main and backup protection supplies are available, the manual control close must be wired
to the backup supply circuit.
There is no requirement to provide supervision of the close coil circuits.
Capacitor bank circuit breakers must have a close inhibit to allow for capacitor bank discharge.
This scheme is best implemented by utilising the capacitor bank protection relay to perform the
timing function which is initiated from the CB status. The protection relay is required to have a
close inhibit output contact placed in the signal path to the circuit breaker close coil and is best
positioned in the close coil negative to ensure all sources of the closing signal are inhibited, i.e.
from SCADA, control panel, and local at circuit breaker.
15.5 Auto Reclosing
The preferred method for the design and implementation of auto-reclosing (A/R) of substation
circuit breakers is to utilise the protection relay logic. If the protection relays are not capable of
providing an auto-reclose function, then an alternative is to use the substation SCADA system. The
installation of dedicated auto-reclose relays is not permitted.
There is no requirement to include auto-reclosing blocking schemes for bus protection and
transformer faults. Application of the standard relay circuitry will ensure an auto-reclose initiate
signal is not present for these faults.
When designing an auto-reclose scheme the Designer must include:

Ergon Energy Queensland Pty Ltd ABN 11 121 177 802
AC schematics must show how the high voltage cable screens are connected to insulated or
substation earths. Cable connection diagrams must have notes or details explaining that cable
screens must be connected at remote ends only.

The SCADA points and communication configurations are defined by the Ergon Energy Standards
SS-2-3.1 SCADA Standard Points List and SS-2-3.2 SCADA Standard Point Naming. The design
work for this is performed using the Ergon Energy development tool SSDB.
The SCADA displays are defined by the Ergon Energy Operating Schematic Drawings and the
SCADA Display Style Guide. The design work for this is performed using the SCADA Master
Station development tool PED500.
All SCADA Master Station Design Work is performed internally by Ergon Energy Control Systems
Design group.
For substations that border other electricity entities, SCADA data sharing may be required as
defined by the Ergon Energy standard SS-2-3.11 SCADA Points List for ICCP.
For a brown field design, the new bay numbering needs to consider the existing bay numbering
defined in the SCADA Master Station to ensure the continuity of data available to the control centre
operators.
15.11.2
The current Ergon Energy standard RTU is the Invensys Foxboro SCD5200. The RTU hardware
can be made up of a number of separate RTUs with each RTU comprising various cards. The
standard RTU cards used by Ergon Energy are:
COE (CPU Optonet Ethernet),
Wide Range Power Supply,
8 channel Serial Communications (for serial connections to Intelligent Electronic Devices),
ADI (Analogue and Digital Inputs),
DO (Digital Output controls).
For analogue inputs, precision resistors are fitted with a 100 ohm resistor being the standard.
A standard RTU is available from the Ergon Energy stores. Additional RTU cards are to be added
as required for the project.
RTUs must obtain supply directly at the Substation DC supply and must have a separately fused
DC supply for the COE card and the I/O cards.
The Open / Close controls for the primary plant circuit breakers must be provided directly from the
RTU and not via the protection relays. These controls must be performed by utilising momentary
action voltage free trip close contacts on the RTU.

15.11.3
The LCF hardware is defined in SS-2-3.1 SCADA Standard Points List. The current preferred LCF
is the Wonderware touch screen. Other current LCFs include the Uticor touch screen and the
Wonderware PC. The LCF must be located to allow close access to telephones, radio
communications equipment and a work area suitable for performing switching operations.
The LCF must be provided power supply via the Substation DC system.
The SCADA points are defined by the Ergon Energy Standards SS-2-3.1 and SS-2-3.2. The design
work for this is performed using the Ergon Energy development tool SSDB.
The SCADA displays are defined by the Ergon Energy Operating Schematic Drawings and
generally by the SCADA Display Style Guide. The design work for this is performed using the LCF
manufacturers configuration software.
The LCF must include remote engineering access interface.
All LCF design work is performed by Ergon Energy Control Systems Design group.
15.12 Communications
15.12.1
Site Classification
The Project Scope Statement for a project should clearly specify the communications classification
(e.g. TDM CAN) for a substation site and the required inter-site connection requirements. The
detailed design document for that site classification can then be referenced on NocNet to
determine the standard communications equipment that is required at that location and the various
communications links that can be established for intra/inter site connections. These documents
also specify the standard port allocations for the various communications devices to be installed at
these sites.

DC Schematic
Comms Schematic Diagram
SensorProbe Schematic Diagram
Main Distribution Frame Diagrams
Cable Connection Diagram
Data Cable Connection Diagram
Cable Schedule/s
15.12.3
Equipment Coding
Communications Cabling
Communications cabling installed within substation must comply with the requirements of Sections
11-14 of STMP004: Standard for Communications Equipment Installation and Section 13 of SS-11.4: Substation Design Requirements. Refer to:
STMP004 Standard for Communications Equipment Installation
SS-1-1.4 Substation Design Requirements
15.12.5
Engineering Access
Engineering access to IEDs within a substation is generally provided via a combination of two
different means depending on whether the IED has a suitable Ethernet or serial interface. For an
Ethernet equipped device the connection is via the OCN switch at the site whereas for serial
devices the connection will be via a Lantronix terminal server.
The OCN switch has standard port allocations which are detailed in the OCN Switch Port
Allocations spreadsheet located on the pccomms drive. OCN Drawings produced by the CNOC
detailing device connections at substation sites can be found in the EDMS under the
OPERATIONAL COMMUNICATIONS NETWORK asset identifier.

Ergon Energy Corporation Limited ABN 50 087 646 062
Ergon Energy Queensland Pty Ltd ABN 11 121 177 802
SCADA Communications
The SCADA communications to a substation site will be DNP3.00, connecting the RTUs to the
regional ABB RDAS. An IEEE 802.3 10Base-T half duplex interface must be provided via the
Operational Communication Network (OCN) to connect to RTU-2. If Sequence of Events (SOE)
time-stamping is required for SCADA events then either a GPS clock will need to be installed at the
substation or revert to a legacy serial connection as mentioned in Section 6 of the Ergon Energy
Telecommunication Requirements v1.0 document.
Refer: NocNet Intranet > Documents - Corenet > Technical Docs > Network Design Docs > Ergon
Energy Telecommunication Requirements v1.0
15.12.7
Protection Communications
There are generally two forms of communicating protection schemes current differential and
communicating distance. For current differential the standard interface between the protection
relay and PDH multiplexer will be C37.94. For communicating distance schemes the standard
interface between the protection relay and PDH multiplexer will be V.24. Where there is an
economic/technical advantage C37.94 could be used instead for this circuit by placing a SEL2894
converter on the serial port of the protection relay.
Refer: NocNet Intranet > Documents - Corenet > Technical Docs > Network Design Docs > Ergon
Energy Telecommunication Requirements v1.0
15.12.8
Telephony
Where required, a substation control room telephone can be provided using either a subscriber
interface on a PDH multiplexer or Telstra landline. If a Telstra landline is used a telephone isolation
cubicle will be required in the substation control room to prevent hazardous voltages being induced
into the Telstra network. In the future, VOIP will be used.
15.12.9
Where required a VHF mobile radio must be provided within the substation control room. The
folded dipole antenna will either be mounted on a dedicated communications pole (refer drawings
903384-01 & 903384-02) or fitted to one of the lightning masts within the substation yard. The VHF
radio will require a 12VDC negatively earthed supply.
15.12.10 Communications DC Supplies
Where a Communications DC Supply is required at a substation site in accordance with Ergon
Energy Standard SS-1-5.1: Substation DC Supplies, Section 16.2 of this document and/or the
Project Scope Statement it will generally be designed in accordance with the Ergon Energy
Standard SS-1-5.1: Substation DC Supplies.
The capacity and autonomy of the DC system must be determined using the principles of Appendix
1 of the above Standard. Higher autonomy times may be required for remote sites without standby
generation and some critical point of presence or backbone sites.
Ergon Energy currently uses a number of Rack Power Systems (RPS) to suit various equipment
loads and installation requirements. The specifications/drawings of each of these systems can be
found in the EDMS under the COMMUNICATIONS STANDARD asset identifier.

General
The metering design must be in accordance with the Project Scope Statement and meet the
requirements of SS-1-1.4 Substation Design Requirements, SS-2-4.1 Metering, and
NA000403R328 Queensland Electricity Connection and Metering Manual (QECMM).
Metering in a substation is classified into the following types:
Panel and SCADA Metering
Statistical Metering
Revenue Metering
The Designer must represent all substation metering, including the associated connections to
communications and SCADA, on the Single Line Diagrams for the substation.
As an example, the following standard drawings can be referred to:
EESS-10480-03 Z6-32D Zone Substation Single Line Diagram Protection and Metering
EESS-10480-05 Z6-32D Zone Substation Single Line Diagram Revenue Metering
Meter types, mounting details and panel locations, and standard wiring must be as specified in
Ergon Energy Standard SS-2-4.1 Metering and the ZSS template drawings.

Statistical Metering
Statistical meters must record substation bus voltage and the total substation load, including
connected reactive loads, and are therefore required to be installed on the following:
Incoming Transmission and Sub-transmission feeders
Substation Transformer LV incoming supplies
Capacitor banks
AFLC plant
SVCs
For all new substation installations, the statistical metering and associated hardware, including
ESAA test blocks, and communications modems, must be installed in dedicated metering panels.
There is no requirement for statistical metering to comply with Australian Energy Market Operator
(AEMO) requirements.
Page 69 of 120
Ergon Energy Corporation Limited ABN 50 087 646 062
Ergon Energy Queensland Pty Ltd ABN 11 121 177 802
Revenue Metering
A Voltage Transformer auto-changeover scheme using voltage selection relays must be installed in
the metering panel for all new metering installations where two VTs are available as a suitable
meter VT supply. The voltage changeover must be initiated for loss of voltage detection on any
phase. The VT changeover output is also used to power the remote communications serial server.
Refer to:
EESS-10312-03 =QX01 11kV Statistical Metering Voltage Selection AC Wiring Schematic
The VT rated burdens specified are based on estimated loads. The Designer must ensure that the
VTs have adequately rated burdens such that the load on each metering winding at rated voltage
will lie between 25% and 70% of the winding's rated burden.
Metering VT loads must be balanced on all three phases as far as possible. For any 3 single phase
VT installation, the least loaded metering winding must not carry less than 80% of the load
experienced by the most heavily loaded metering winding. The Designer must follow
manufacturers' installation guides for transducers and meters with respect to metering inputs. VT

Ergon Energy Corporation Limited ABN 50 087 646 062
Ergon Energy Queensland Pty Ltd ABN 11 121 177 802
The CT rated burdens have been specified on the basis of estimated loads. The Designer must
ensure that CTs are rated such that the total burden at rated current on each metering winding lies
between 25% and 70% of the winding's rated output.
Each metering core of a 3 phase installation must be loaded to achieve an acceptable balance
between phases. The least loaded core must carry not less than 80% of the load experienced by
the most heavily loaded metering core. 3Ph, 3w transducers and meters must be wired to the
preferred phases indicated in their appropriate installation guides.
Dummy loads may be fitted where necessary, for balancing purposes and to achieve the loadings
stipulated above. Dummy loads must be connected close to and on the load side of the CT
terminals such that the burden measured at the CT terminals will include the effects of the applied
burden.
15.14 LV Cabling, Secondary Wiring and Terminals
The design of secondary wiring, terminals and multicore cables must meet the requirements of SS1-1.4 Substation Design Requirements, SS-1-4.4 Substation Cables and Cabling and AS3000
Wiring Rules. Additional requirements are detailed below.
Current ratings of LV power cables must be determined either from using relevant tables in
AS/NZS 3008-1.1 or manufacturers catalogues. The Designer must ensure voltage drop along
LV Power and secondary control cabling is allowed for when selecting cable sizes.
The current rating of Station Services Transformer 415V cabling must be designed for the full
load capacity of the Station Services Transformer, not the maximum demand of the substation.

LV Power cables must have an orange outer sheath for AC circuits, and a black outer sheath
for DC circuits. Control and instrumentation cables must have a black outer sheath. All
protection and control panel secondary wiring must be grey with the exception of LV power AC
wiring where the phase colouring must be Red, White and Blue for the active phases (R W B),
Black for neutral (N) and Green/Yellow for ground (G). The cores of DC power cables must be
Red and Black.
AC and DC circuits must be run in separate cables. Where X and Y protection systems are
used, the X and Y secondary circuits must be run in separate cables.
Cable separation distances between LV AC power cables, control cables and instrumentation
cables must be maintained in accordance with SS-1-4.4 Substation Cables and Cabling
Sections 6.3 and 6.4.
All cable runs must be in conduits, cable trays, ladders or cable trenches. Underground cable
runs must be in conduits or trenches. It is not permissible to direct bury LV power, control and
instrumentation cables, and must not be run in the same ducts or conduits as HV cables.
Each cable must have a unique identifying number and the cable numbering must be in
accordance with Section 3.11 of SS-1-1.2 Substation Equipment Naming Guidelines and the
Zone Substation Template drawings. The Designer must ensure all cables are identified on the
substation cable schedules. The cable schedules must include the following details:
Cable Number
Cable Length
Purpose
Each cable core must have an identifying number and the wire numbering must be in
accordance with Section 3.12 of SS-1-1.2 Substation Equipment Naming Guidelines and the
Zone Substation Template drawings.
All secondary wiring terminal blocks, fuses etc, must be readily accessible through doors or
readily removable plates which do not require the use of tools to open.
Terminals in 415V and 240V AC circuits must be protected by inherent design features or an
insulated cover to protect against inadvertent contact. All such terminals and surrounding
barriers must be identified as 415/240V AC by means of a label with white lettering on a red
background, attached to the terminal barriers or covers.

Given that the requirement for Type S CTs is only 20mm less than that for Type T & W CTs, it is
recommended that we aim to standardise on a minimum depth of 255mm in all cases if possible.
(c) Drawing ECMM-9.2 in Section 9 of QECMM indicates that the three phase CTs may be
mounted either in line across the chamber, or staggered. The staggered arrangement shown
in the QECMM Drawing results in the voltage fuses needing to be mounted at the bottom of
the chamber, which is likely to be near floor level. It is recommended that the CT staggering be
inverted vertically from that shown (i.e. middle phase highest and outer phases lowest), so that
the fuses can be mounted near the top of the chamber, as indicated for in-line mounting of the
CTs. Ergon Energy Metering Group have indicated verbal agreement with that approach and
may amend the QECMM in the future.
(d) The minimum depth for the metering panel will be determined by the depth of the meter from
front to back, plus a minimum clearance of 175mm from the front of the meter to the inside of
the closed panel door, as required by Clause 9.10 of QECMM.
(e) The metering CTs, fuse blocks, meters and test blocks must be ordered in advance from the
Ergon Energy Metering Group by the relevant Design Group. If available early enough, these
can be forwarded to the AC panel supplier for installation.
16.1.5 AC Distribution
Following the metering chamber, the selected main AC supply must be connected to a main AC
Distribution Busbar via a main isolation switch. The busbar is also supplied from an emergency
generator connection, as indicated in section 16.1.7. The fire indication supply must be connected
to the incoming supply from the changeover contactor, before the main switch for the AC
Distribution Busbar, as required by Clause 7.2 of AS3000.
The AC Distribution Busbar provides the following outgoing supplies through individual circuit
breakers:
(a) Essential Supplies Sub-Board for each control building providing essential supplies for
control building and switchyard services.
(b) Non-Essential Supplies Sub-Board for each control building - providing non-essential supplies
for control building and switchyard services.
(c) Each separate transformer oil filter 100A outlet. (One outlet only may be sufficient to service
both transformers, in some cases dependent on switchyard layout).
(d) AFLC circuit (where required)

Create a new blank drawing from the standard seed file with a different file name and add the
same size border using the Ergon menu.
2.
Copy the elements from the existing drawing to the new file.
3.
Use the power selector tool to update the elements to current standard. For example, all lines
can be selected and moved to the lines level. Level display can be used to turn off all other
levels, yellow lines selected and changed to weight of 3. All text and text nodes (multi-line text)
can be selected and the change text attributes tool can be used to change the standard font.
4.
Once complete the drawing can be closed but not added to the EDMS.
5.
Save the dgn file in the EDMS checkout folder and give it the filename of the original file. The
existing drawings filename will need to be changed first to avoid a conflict. An underscore
character positioned at the start of the filename is best used for this.
6.
Open the new dgn with the correct filename and the EDMS will recognise this file as the linked
original and automatically populate the border database fields.

To add an additional dimension or remove one that is not required the add or remove vertex tool
can be used.
When using line styles within an SLD some have arrow heads that point to the required logical
operation. For example, if an initiate line is drawn and the arrow head is pointing in the wrong
direction the arrow head can be reversed by using the TOOLS - CURVES MODIFY CURVES
CHANGE CURVE DIRECTION tool.
If an element is required to be scaled, and the scalar value requires calculating, insert the division
or multiplication calculation directly into the scale tool to get and set the value all at once.
Microstation contains a tool called the FENCE. This tool can be used as a special selection tool, for
copying sections of a drawing or can be used to manipulate elements. The most beneficial option
is the fence stretch. First a section of the drawing is selected in a box or shape and then the
manipulate fence content stretch tool is used to pull an entire area of elements in a particular
direction. This is used consistently to adjust the spacing between the elements of a drawing.
