1.1 INTRODUCTION

1.1.1 SP Services Ltd (SPSL), SP PowerAssets Ltd (SPPA) and SP PowerGrid Ltd
(SPPG) are subsidiaries of Singapore Power Ltd. SPSL provides support services
for the electricity market. It receives requests for electricity service connection;
offers terms and conditions of service connection; arranges for service connection
energisation/turn-on; and collects transmission charges, security deposits and
charges for other services on behalf of SPPA. SPSL also bills customers for
consumption. SPPA is the Transmission Licensee and owner of the transmission
and distribution network. SPPG, the managing agent for and on behalf of SPPA,
develops, operates and maintains the transmission and distribution facilities.

1.1.2 The supply of electricity and electrical installation practices are governed by the
Electricity Act and its subsidiary legislation.

1.2 CONNECTION VOLTAGES AND SUPPLY FREQUENCY

1.2.1 In Singapore, the customers’ load installations are connected at the following
voltages:

1.2.1.1 Transmission voltage of 66kV and 230kV

1.2.1.2 Distribution voltage consist of 230V, 400V, 6.6kV, 22kV (may vary within ± 6%)

The supply voltages are classified in the following categories:

1.2.1.3 Low Tension (LT) refers to 230V,single-phase and 400V, 3-phase

1.2.1.4 High Tension (HT) refers to 22kV and 6.6kV

1.2.1.5 Extra-High Tension (EHT) refers to 66kV

1.2.1.6 Ultra-High Tension (UHT) refers to 230kV

6
1.2.2 The following connection schemes are provided, according to customers’ load
requirements:

1.2.2.6 230V, 50 Hz, single-phase, up to a maximum of 23kVA, 100A

1.2.2.7 400V, 50 Hz, 3-phase, 4-wire.

of 85,000 kW.

1.2.3 Where the customer requires a connection voltage and/or frequencies that differ
from those specified above, the customer is required to provide, install and
maintain the necessary transformation equipment.

1.3 SUBMISSION OF APPLICATION

SPSL serves as a one-stop customer service centre. It receives all application

forms on behalf of SPPA, and responds to all applications made by the Licensed
Electrical Worker (LEW), who acts as the customer’s agent for connection to the
transmission system.

Customers applying for their installations to be connected to SPPA’s transmission

system must submit their applications through their LEWs. Every application must
be accompanied by all supporting documentation requested by SPSL. A copy of
the Application Form is shown in Appendix 1.

For a development in the conception/planning stage, the customer is advised to

seek consultation regarding SPPA’s requirements, such as the provision of a
substation, for load connection. The Consultation Form (Appendix 2) must be
submitted directly to SPPG by the customer’s LEW.

1.4 PROVISION OF A SUBSTATION

1.4.1 Direct service connection from SPPA's LT network to the customer’s installation is
available for a small load requirement not exceeding 280kVA (400A). However,
the provision of a direct service connection is dependent on the available network
capacity in the vicinity. If there is insufficient capacity, the customer is required to
provide a substation for the connection.

7
1.4.2 For a larger load requirement exceeding 280kVA (400A), the customer has to
provide a substation for SPPA to install necessary equipment to cater for the load.

1.5 DOMESTIC PREMISES AND LOAD REQUIREMENT

NOT EXCEEDING 45kVA

1.5.1 For premises where the electricity meter has already been installed by SPPA and
no extension or rewiring work is required, electricity service connection will be
turned-on on the next working day from the date of the opening of an account with
SPSL.

1.5.2 For premises where there is no electricity meter or where extension or rewiring
work is required, the customer has to engage a LEW and submit an application for
load connection (See Section 2).

1.6 METER
All meters required for measuring a customer’s electricity consumption and
demand (where applicable) are provided and maintained by SPPA. The customer
provides meter boards, compartments, kiosks, etc as SPPA may require for the
installation of its metering equipment.

1.6.1 Master- And Sub-Metering

A “Master-meter” is a meter measuring the consumption for all units and common
areas in a building or cluster of buildings, which are used or occupied by multiple
consumers.

A “Sub-meter” is a meter measuring the consumption for a unit in a building or

cluster of buildings used or occupied by multiple consumers, whose electricity is
taken through a Master-meter.

A master and sub-metering scheme is applicable for multi-tenanted premises.

Under this scheme, the electricity supply is metered at the intake point and each
tenant’s supply is also separately metered and billed under the appropriate tariff.
The owner/developer/landlord shall be billed for the difference in the consumption
between that metered at the intake point and the summated consumption of the
tenants. Where the owner/developer/landlord takes supply at high tension and is
responsible for stepping down the supply to 230V/400V for distribution to tenants,
then a rebate of 2½% on the summated consumption of the tenants will be
granted.

1.6.1.1 Multi-Metered Premises

The following are categories of multi-metered premises:

1.6.1.1.1 Residential premises which have landlord and tenant supply connections

1.6.1.1.2 Commercial complexes which have landlord and tenant supply connections

8
1.6.1.1.3 Multi-storey factories or industrial complexes which have landlord and tenant
supply connections

1.6.1.1.4 All multi-metered premises fall under the Master- and Sub-metering scheme with
the exception of HDB residential premises.

1.7 TARIFFS FOR NON-CONTESTABLE CUSTOMERS

1.7.1 Tariffs are currently charged for low tension, high tension and extra-high tension
electricity consumption.

1.7.2 Tariffs are subject to change and are published by SPSL from time to time.
Online information on the latest electricity tariffs is available at
www.spservices.com.sg.

1.8 PAYMENT FOR ELECTRICITY CHARGES BY

CONTESTABLE CUSTOMERS

Contestable customer pays to SPSL or authorised retailers, charges for electricity

consumption as ascertained by meters, and transmission charges and other fixed
charges as determined by SPSL. Payment for electricity charges must be made
on or before the due date specified in the bill.

1.9 OPENING ACCOUNT AND PAYMENT OF SECURITY DEPOSIT FOR

USE OF SYSTEM (UOS) CHARGES

The customer must open an account and place a security deposit for UOS
charges with SPSL upon application for energisation of service connection.

1.10 TERMINATION OF ACCOUNT

Non-contestable customers must give 4 business days' notice and contestable

customers must give 12 business days’ notice to terminate an account. Such
notices must be in writing to SPSL.

1.11 DISCONNECTION OF SERVICE CABLES UPON TERMINATION OF

ACCOUNT

Disconnection work involves the de-energisation and removal of service cables

and equipment. The following are indicative lead times for the work:

9
1.11.1 After the disconnection of LT, the lead-time is about 5 business days for the
removal of LT service cables where road-opening work is not involved. Where
road opening work is involved, a lead-time of 1 month is required.

1.11.2 After the disconnection of 6.6KV and 22KV where removal of service cables and
equipment are involved, the lead-time is about 1 month.

1.11.3 For disconnection of 66kV and 230kV service cables, the service cable and
equipment are de-energised within 10 business days, subject to the approval of
the Power System Operator (PSO). The subsequent removal of service cables
and equipment will depend on the operational requirement and approval of the
PSO.

10
 Application For
Load Connection

2.1 DISTRIBUTION CONNECTION

2.1.1 Introduction

Each premises can have only one customer’s intake connection point. For
modification of connection (such as upgrading of the load requirement) to existing
premises, the customer is required to amalgamate the existing service connection
into one intake.

2.1.2 Consultation

For a development in the initial planning stage, the customer is advised to seek
consultation with SPPG to ascertain SPPA‘s requirements for a new or modified
connection to the transmission system. The LEW is required to submit the
Consultation Form (Appendix 2), together with a site/location plan to SPPG.

After receipt of the submission for consultation, SPPG will send a reply stating the
approved load and other technical requirements, such as the provision of
substation requirements necessary for the load connection to the transmission
system.

2.1.3 Application

The Application Form (Appendix 1) together with a copy of the site/location plan,
must be submitted to SPSL by the LEW for new or modified connections of new or
existing premises to the transmission system.

2.1.3.1 Processing of Application

Generally, SPSL responds to applications within 10 business days.

11
 The responses are made according to the following customer categories:

2.1.3.1.1 Contestable Customer

- A Consumer Connection Agreement, containing the service connection charge

payable, the offer letter and the standard terms and conditions with respect to
the distribution service connection.
- If a substation is required, a letter stipulating the requirements will be
forwarded to the customer, and an Agreement offered after the substation
plans are endorsed.

2.1.3.1.2 Non-Contestable Customer

- A Quotation, containing service connection charge payable and the conditions

of service with respect to the distribution service connection
- If a substation is required, a letter stipulating the requirements will be
forwarded to the customer. A Supply Agreement including the service
connection charge payable and the terms & conditions with respect to the
distribution service connection, is offered after the substation plans are
endorsed.

2.1.3.2 Commencement of Work

- SPPG commences work only when the Agreement has been signed and
received by SPSL, together with payment of service connection charges.

2.1.4 Type of Premises

2.1.4.1 Multi-Metered Premises

2.1.4.1.1 A multi-metered premises is one where the landlord/MCST (i.e. a master-metered

consumer or directly connected consumer) receives bulk intake service
connection from SPPA, and transforms/reticulates the supply to all the tenants
(i.e. sub-metered consumers) within the premises. Any application for new or
modified connection (including upgrading) for the bulk intake to the multi-metered
premises must be made by the landlord through its LEW.

A master-metered consumer means a consumer that is responsible for the

common usage of a master-metered installation, which is connected to the
transmission system.

A master-metered installation means an installation in which supply is received by

a master-metered consumer and sub-metered consumers

A sub-metered consumer means a consumer, other than a master-metered

consumer, that receives supply in a master-metered installation via the electrical
system owned by a master-metered consumer.

2.1.4.1.2 The landlord/MSCT or HDB, in the case of HDB premises, must ensure that the
total applied load requirement for service connections to the multi-metered
premises meet the total existing and future load requirements for all tenants. All

12
 tenants applying for any upgrading of load must do so through their master-
metered consumer. In this regard, the master-metered consumer must approve
the load of all tenants within the premises.

2.1.4.1.3 If the landlord’s existing approved load is insufficient to cater for the tenants’ load
requirement, the landlord, as a master-metered consumer, must submit an
application to SPSL for modification (upgrading) of service connection to the
existing premises. In this case, the existing service cables are amalgamated with
the new intake. Hence, there will not be separate direct connections to the
tenants of such premises.

2.1.4.2 Premises in Private Housing, Industrial Estates, Commercial Developments

Requiring Provision of Low Tension (LT) Distribution Network

2.1.4.2.1 For connection to premises where several parcels of land are to be sold or leased
individually, one or more substations must be provided by the developer. Where
the individual parcels of land are to be sold prior to development of these
substations, details of the substation requirements and approved load must be
included in the sales agreement by the future land parcel’s owner or lessee.

2.1.4.2.2 The developer must provide the development’s total load requirement and include
the breakdown of the individual premises’ load requirement (as specified in the
sales agreement) and the communal load requirement, if applicable.

2.1.4.2.3 In the case of landed housing estate development, the LEW must liaise with
National Parks Board for the siting of overground distribution boxes on turfed
areas. SPPA will provide and install the LT distribution network and service
connection cables for the development.

2.1.4.3 Premises Involving Temporary Connection With Provision Of Substation

2.1.4.3.1 Special terms and conditions apply in such cases for temporary connection to
construction worksites and other temporary premises. The term granted for
temporary connection is usually 24 months.

2.1.4.3.2 Where there is a need for the provision of a temporary substation, the customer
must provide the site and construct the structure of the substation according to the
requirements of SPPA.

2.1.4.3.3 There will be a need to install the necessary cables and equipment to facilitate the
temporary connection to the distribution network. The customer pays outright
costs for the cables and a monthly hiring charge for the use of the equipment
(including the cost of insuring the equipment) during the term for temporary
connection.

13
2.1.5 Provision of Substation

2.1.5.1 When an application for load connection necessitates the provision of a substation
(See Appendices 9 and 10), a site must be provided and a substation constructed
by the customer at its own cost.

2.1.5.2 The customer can either choose his substation to be a dedicated or non-dedicated
one (See Appendix 35). If the customer opts for a dedicated substation, he has to
inform SPPG when he applies for connection. Otherwise, it shall be assumed that
the substation would be non-dedicated.

2.1.5.3 The customer is advised to site the substation at an inconspicuous location, away
from the main entrance of the development and major public roads. The customer
is also encouraged to harmonise, blend and integrate the substation with its
development.

2.1.5.4 SPPG’s officers and vehicles will have full and unrestricted access to the
substation.

2.1.6 Service Connection Cables

Generally, SPPA supply, install and maintain customer service cable. However, if
the customer intake point is at different level to the substation building, or service
cable to be installed in cable tray/ladder, the customer shall supply, install and
maintain the service cable. In the event that customer supplies the service cable,
the customer’s LEW shall ensure that the service cable complied with SPPA cable
specification, and submit cable sample and specification to Distribution
Engineering Section for approval prior to procurement. The general type of cables
for service connection is shown in Appendix 36.

2.2 TRANSMISSION CONNECTION

2.2.1 Consultation

2.2.1.1 A customer may choose to seek preliminary comments from SPPG via the
connection consultation process before submitting a formal application. This
practice is encouraged as incorporating SPPA’s requirements in a developer’s
preliminary proposal would expedite the application process at a later stage.

2.2.1.2 To initiate the connection consultation process, the customer has to submit the
Consultation Form (Appendix 2) through an LEW to SPPG.

2.2.2 Application

The following are steps in the application for service connection:

2.2.2.1 The customer submits the Application Form (Appendix 1) through an LEW to
SPSL.

14
2.2.2.2 A connection proposal, duly endorsed by the PSO, is given to the customer. It
outlines the connection scheme, connection voltage, connection equipment and
facilities required of the customer and the estimated connection charges. SPPG
endeavors to respond to the customer, through SPSL, within 60 business days
and 100 business days for 66kV connections and 230kV connections respectively.

2.2.2.3 Where the application requires the provision of an EHT substation, the customer
must adhere to the general requirements attached in Appendix 17.

2.2.2.4 Once customer acknowledges acceptance of SPPG’s connection proposal, SPPG

proceeds to execute the Consumer Connection Agreement through SPSL. The
Agreement contains an Offer Letter, the standard terms and conditions associated
with the connection and an estimation of the connection charges

2.2.3 Lead-Time for Application of Transmission Connection

2.2.3.1 The timely provision of electricity supply to a development involves the joint efforts
of SPSL, SPPG, and the customer and their agents, such as the LEW. While
SPSL and SPPG will make every effort to engineer and implement the connection
scheme, it is at the same time essential for the new customers and their agents to
co-operate via timely submission of applications and plans, timely acceptance of
the terms and conditions of connection and compliance with the necessary SPPA
or Transmission Code requirements.

2.2.3.2 As a guide for the customer and their agents, the normal lead-times for the events
leading to the energisation of 66kV service connections are listed in the box
below. The actual time-lead to energisation may vary for each connection,
depending on the actual service cable length and the progress of intermediate
events leading to completion of service connection works. Customers will be
informed accordingly either at the point of application or at any time a review is
required. For 230kV service connections, the customer will be informed of the
lead-time only at the point of application.

2. Transmission
Charges

3.1 CONSUMER CONNECTION AGREEMENT

3.1.1 All customers are required to enter into a Consumer Connection Agreement with
SPPA and to pay Use of System (UOS) charges. Customers having a direct
connection to the transmission system must also pay a service connection charge.
For non-contestable customers, the Connection Agreement is part of the Supply
Agreement.

3.1.2 The Consumer Connection Agreement for customers taking HT supply at 6.6
kV/22 kV, EHT supply at 66 kV or UHT supply at 230 kV and above will, inter alia,
state the Contracted Capacity, which is deemed to be the requirement for a period
of five years. Customers cannot reduce their Contracted Capacity until the
expiration of the 5-year period or additional 5-year period. Furthermore, a
customer who terminates the supply agreement during the 5-year period or
additional 5-year period will be required to pay SPPA through SPSL/Retailer, the
Contracted Capacity Charge for the unexpired portion of the 5-year period.

3.1.3 UOS charges are payments for the use of the transmission services. The UOS
charges are paid for electricity consumption at each metered intake supply point in
accordance with the voltage at which a customer receives the electricity supply.
The UOS charges are subject to annual review and the revised UOS charges will
be published by SPPA.

3.1.4 In the case of HT and EHT supply to multi-metered premises, the landlord has to
enter into a Connection Agreement for the network capacity required for his own
load only, i.e. supply for common services, etc.

16
3.1.5 The UOS Charges are applicable for the following categories of supplies :

• Low Tension (LT) Supplies (400V/230V)

Supply to Low Tension-Small Consumer

Supply to Low Tension-Large Consumer

• High Tension (HT) Supplies (22kV and 6.6kV)

Supply to High Tension-Small Consumer, whose Contracted Capacity is

less than 1,700 kW per month at each metered intake supply point.

Supply to High Tension-Large Consumer, whose Contracted Capacity is at

least 1,700 kW per month at each metered intake supply point.

• Extra-High Tension (EHT) Supplies (66kV)

Supply to Extra-High Tension Consumer

• Ultra-High Tension (UHT) Supplies (230kV and above)

Supply to Ultra-High Tension Consumer

• Temporary Supplies

Temporary Supplies apply only to LT and HT supplies for temporary civil

engineering and building construction sites.

3.2 USE OF SYSTEM (UOS) CHARGES

3.2.1 Low Tension Small Customer

LT supplies (in kWh) to all non-contestable LT consumers are metered on a

monthly basis. A flat per kWh UOS rate is levied at each metered intake supply
point.

3.2.2 Low Tension Large Customer

The large industrial and commercial LT consumers, who are contestable and
have time-of-day metering, come under this category. LT Supplies to these
contestable consumers are metered on energy (kWh) on a half-hourly time-of-day
basis. The respective per kWh charges shall be levied at a “Peak” and an “Off-
peak” period for the energy supplied at each metered intake supply point.

3.2.2.1 Peak Period Charge

The Peak Period Charge payable shall be the monthly charge based on the
energy (in kWh) supplied to an installation during the peak period, 7.00 am to
11.00 pm, in that month.

17
3.2.2.2 Off-Peak Period Charge

The Off-Peak Period Charge payable shall be the monthly charge based on the
energy (in kWh) supplied to an installation during the off-peak period, 11.00 pm to
7.00 am, in that month.

3.2.3 High Tension, Extra-High Tension and Ultra-High Tension Supplies

For HT (i.e. HT Small and HT Large), EHT and UHT Supplies, UOS Charges
shall be levied at each metered intake supply point as follows :

a. Contracted Capacity Charge;

b. Peak Period Charge;
c. Off-peak Period Charge;
d. Reactive Power Charge;
e. Uncontracted Capacity Charge, and
f. Uncontracted Standby Capacity Charge (applicable to consumers with
embedded generation who opt to cap their power demand drawn from
the network).

3.2.3.1 Contracted Capacity Charge

3.2.3.1.1 The Contracted Capacity Charge is a monthly charge payable in any month for
the Contracted Capacity at each metered intake supply point of a consumer. The
Contracted Capacity of a consumer's installation shall be the supply capacity (in
kW), which is requested for that metered intake supply point. For the avoidance
of doubt, and without prejudice to paragraph 3.2.3.1.3 herein, the consumer shall
not be allowed to reduce the declared Contracted Capacity upon the signing of
the Consumer Connection Agreement / Supply Agreement, notwithstanding the
fact that the energisation of the new supply has still not taken place.

3.2.3.1.2 For a new supply, the Contracted Capacity shall be deemed to be the consumer's
requirement for a binding period of 5 years from the target date or the
commissioning date for SPPA’s plant and equipment, except for the service
cable, whichever is later. For new HT, EHT and UHT supplies, the minimum
Contracted Capacity for each metered intake supply point shall be as follows :

HT with 1 or 2 feeders 1,700 kW,

HT with 3 or more feeders 12,750 kW,
EHT 25,500 kW,
UHT 85,000 kW.

For new supplies, a request may be made for intermediate steps before the full
Contracted Capacity is implemented during the first year of the 5-year binding
period. The first step shall be at least one quarter (¼) of the consumer’s
requested full Contracted Capacity at each metered intake supply point.

3.2.3.1.3 After the initial 5-year period, the consumer may, by giving one month's notice in
writing, reduce his Contracted Capacity at each metered intake supply point
subject to the following minimum values :

18
 HT with 1 or 2 feeders 850 kW,
HT with 3 or more feeders 6,375 kW,
EHT 12,750 kW,
UHT 42,500 kW.

Any such reduction in Contracted Capacity shall be deemed to be the consumer’s

requirements for one year commencing from the first day of the billing cycle that
follows after the end of the notice period and the consumer shall not be entitled to
make any further reduction in the Contracted Capacity within one year following
any such reduction. Market Support Services Licensee will inform the consumer
of the date of their billing cycle.

3.2.3.1.4 Upward revision of the Contracted Capacity may be allowed during the validity of
the binding period of 5 years or 1 year of the Contracted Capacity. The revised
Contracted Capacity shall in such cases commence from the first day in which it
is effective and shall apply for the remainder of the initial 5-year period or for a
minimum period of 1 year, whichever is the greater, provided SPPA is not
required to install new or additional equipment. Downward revision during such
binding periods will not be allowed.

3.2.3.1.5 A consumer whose revised contracted capacity requires SPPA to install new or
additional equipment shall be considered as receiving a new supply with a new
5-year binding period.

3.2.3.1.6 For a new development with landlord and tenants, the supply capacity required
by the landlord himself must meet the minimum values set out in paras 3.2.3.1.2
to 3.2.3.1.5 above in order for the landlord to qualify for HT, EHT or UHT
supplies.

3.2.3.1.7 For those HT, EHT or UHT consumers whose Contracted Capacity are below the
minimum values specified above before the implementation of these rates, they
may request to increase (but not decrease) their Contracted Capacity in the
manner as described above.

3.2.3.2 Peak Period Charge

The Peak Period Charge payable shall be the monthly charge based on the
energy (in kWh) supplied to an installation during the peak period, 7.00 am to
11.00 pm, in that month.

The Off-Peak Period Charge payable shall be the monthly charge based on the
energy (in kWh) supplied to an installation during the off-peak period, 11.00 pm to
7.00 am, in that month.

3.2.3.4 Reactive Power Charge

The Reactive Power Charge is a monthly charge payable in any month for the
installation's excess kVArh consumption. The excess kVArh shall be the

19
 difference by which the installation's kVArh consumption drawn from the network
in that month is greater than 62% of its kWh consumption drawn from the network
in the same month.

3.2.3.5 Uncontracted Capacity Charge

3.2.3.5.1 The Uncontracted Capacity Charge is a monthly charge payable in any month for
the Uncontracted Capacity utilised. The Uncontracted Capacity is the capacity in
kW by which the maximum demand in kW (measured by the half-hour integration
meter) exceeds the Contracted Capacity at that metered intake supply point.

3.2.3.5.2 The Uncontracted Capacity Charge shall apply to the following HT, EHT and UHT
consumers :

a. Normal consumers without embedded generation;

b. Consumers with embedded generation whose monthly maximum

demand in kW is the maximum summated demand in kW in the month,
determined by summating the kW demand drawn from the network and
the kW output from embedded generation (i.e. Summation Scheme);
and

c. Consumers with embedded generation who opt to cap their power

demand in kW drawn from the network in the event that the maximum
demand in kW (measured by the half-hour integration meter) exceeds
the Contracted Capacity at that metered intake supply point (i.e.
Capped Capacity Scheme or Extended Capped Capacity Scheme).
The Uncontracted Capacity for these consumers shall be limited to 20%
of the Contracted Capacity.

3.2.3.6 Uncontracted Standby Capacity Charge

3.2.3.6.1 The Uncontracted Standby Capacity Charge is a monthly charge payable in any
month for the Uncontracted Standby Capacity utilised. The Uncontracted
Standby Capacity Charge shall apply to those HT, EHT and UHT consumers with
embedded generation who opt for the Capped Capacity Scheme or Extended
Capped Capacity Scheme.

3.2.3.6.2 For Capped Capacity Scheme, the Uncontracted Standby Capacity Charge
applies in the event the demand in kW drawn from the network (measured by the
power meter) exceeds 120% of the Contracted Capacity at that metered intake
supply point for a duration of more than 10 seconds continuously.

3.2.3.6.3 For Extended Capped Capacity Scheme, the Uncontracted Standby Capacity
Charge applies in the event :

• the demand in kW drawn from the network exceeds 120% and up to

200% of the Contracted Capacity at that metered intake supply point for a
duration of more than 100 seconds continuously; or

20
 • the demand in kW drawn from the network exceeds 200% of the
Contracted Capacity at that metered intake supply point for a duration of
more than 10 seconds continuously.

3.2.3.6.4 For the avoidance of doubt, in the event Uncontracted Standby Capacity Charge
applies in accordance with Clauses 3.2.3.6.2 and 3.2.3.6.3 above, Uncontracted
Capacity Charge shall also be applicable for the Contracted Capacity portion
which is 20% above the customer’s declared Contracted Capacity.

2. Energisation and
Turn-on Procedures

The term ‘energise’, in the case of a customer’s installation that is directly connected to the
transmission system, refers to the closing of a circuit breaker or other isolating device that is
owned and controlled by SPPA. “Energisation”, “de-energisation” and “re-energisation” and
all grammatical variations of the term shall be interpreted accordingly.

Arrangements need to be made with SPSL for energisation of the service connection and
turn-on of a customer’s electrical installation. This is taken care of by the LEW. The
following are arrangements needed by type of premises:

4.1 PREMISES WHERE ELECTRICAL INSTALLATIONS ARE PREVIOUSLY

INSPECTED AND ENERGISED

of SPSL, SPPG, and the customer and his agents, such as the LEW. While SPSL
and SPPG will make every effort to engineer and implement the connection
scheme, it is at the same time essential for the new customers and their agents to
play their part such as the early submission of applications and plans, the
acceptance of terms and conditions of connection including making the necessary
payments and the compliance of the necessary SPPA or Transmission Code
requirements.

4.8.2 As a guide for the customer and his agents, the normal lead-times for the various
events are listed on the following page. Depending on the progress and
completion time of precedent events, the actual completion dates of events
leading to the energisation of the service connection may need to be reviewed
and adjusted.

§ Implementation of connection work shall only be effected upon the payment of service
connection charge and execution of the Connection Agreement by the customer.
** For connection by underground cable, SPPG will have to seek road opening approval from the relevant
authorities before cable work can commence. The approval process usually takes about 3 weeks.
Depending on the length of cable to be installed, supply will normally be available 4 to 6 weeks from the
date customer's premises is ready to receive the service cable.
+ Energisation of service connection will normally take place within 10 weeks of handing over of
substation. This lead-time may vary from case to case, depending on the customer’s schedule.

■ Appendix 9
Types and Layout of Substation

The type of substation required will depend on the customer's load requirement. SPSL shall endeavour to provide the
requirement of the substation within 10 business days following the receipt of application form.

Typical layout plans and details for substations of the independent building type are given in Appendices 11 to 14.

As a guide, the types of substations applicable for the various load requirements are as follows: -

Load Requirement Primary Type of Drawings Applicable/Substation size

Distribution rooms
Voltage
Up to 1,000 kVA at 400/230V 6.6kV Appendices 11
22kV Switchroom 7.6M x 6.2M x 5.6M
Transformer 4.0M x 4.5M x 3.6M
Up to 2,000 kVA at 400/230V 22kV Appendices 12
Up to 4,250 kW at 22kV 22kV Switchroom 6.9M x 6.2M x 5.6M

The functional requirements of the substation structure, however, must be complied with. For example, the minimum
clear height of the cable chamber and switchroom must be 1.5m and 3.1m respectively even if the substation is
integrated into a multi-storey building.

Subject to the layout and access being suitable, the customer may incorporate the substation as part of his main
building. The typical layout plans shown in this handbook depict only the functional requirements.

60
 ■ Appendix 10
Submission of Substation Site and Design Plans

Before construction of the substation, the LEW shall submit to SPPG, 2 sets of plans showing the location of the
proposed substation in relation to the rest of the development and detailed layout plans for the substation. One set of

for the planning, design and supervision of the installation. To facilitate processing, SPSL's Application Reference
Number must be indicated in all submissions which shall be accompanied by a Checklist for Submission of
Substation Plans (Appendix 15).

In the case of re-submission of plans, all amendments (addition/deletion/revision) made must be highlighted in the
new set of drawings and listed out in covering letters.

All plans are to be drawn to scale and dimensions used shall be in metric units.

Substation Site Plans

These plans should show the location of the proposed substation(s) in relation to the surrounding area and should
include the following:

(i) The proposed substation(s)

(ii) The customer's switchroom(s)
(iii) The proposed SPPA's incoming cable and customer's service cable routes
(iv) The orientation of other buildings within the development site
(v) The proposed driveway to the substation entrance (to be shaded in red)
(vi) The existing and proposed drains; and
(vii) North-East Gridlines or 2 NE survey coordinates.

Substation Design/Layout Plans

It is mandatory that the drawings must include
1 The detailed requirements for the design of the substation are listed in Appendix 16. Unless explicit
waiver is granted, these requirements are to be incorporated in the architectural plans.
2 Plan, Front, Rear and Side Elevations of the substation and at least 2 cross-sections showing the

BASIS FOR THE SERVICE CONNECTION CHARGE

1 Service Connection Charges for Low Tension (LT) Connection

All LT consumers are required to pay a one-time upfront service connection charge. These charges which vary for
different load requirements are categorised depending on the provision of a substation.

For larger consumers with substations, their supply intake point is usually adjacent to the substation, which requires a
service cable of approximately 15m in most instances. Therefore, the standard connection charge is computed based
on a cost of service cable length of 15m. Consumers shall pay the additional cost for service cable exceeding 15m. In
addition, consumers shall also pay for those dedicated assets, such as switchgear and transformers, which are
serving them and do not benefit others.

For individual small consumers without substations, the cost of LT service cable for the same capacity may vary
widely depending on their locations with respect to the nearest LT mains. These consumers are not the sole
beneficiaries of the extension of the LT network. To achieve a greater degree of equity in terms of cost for these
general consumers, a standard cost approach is adopted based on similar requirements. The average global cost
based on capacity is determined from past statistics. As such, this category of consumers which comprises mainly the
individual landed residential owners, applying for the same applied load would pay the same standard connection
charge regardless of the location of their premises from the existing LT network.

Standard charges are only applicable to consumers who are connected to the shared network. The rates, which are
approved by EMA, are available in the Transmission Services Rate Schedule. Standard charges are not applicable to
consumers where the network created is unlikely to be shared by others. Some of these include supply to HDB
premises, premises involving installation of bigger capacity cable in order to overcome the excessive voltage drop,
temporary work sites, public installations and offshore island premises. These consumers would have to pay for the
full connection network cost, based on user-pay principle, as they are the main beneficiaries.

2 Service Connection Charges for HT and EHT Connection

Customers receiving HT and EHT connection shall pay the cost of the service connections to their intake equipment
including cables, associated equipment and facilities to effect the connection of customer’s equipment to SPPA’s
substation/network. The service connection shall cater for single contingency.

Customers requesting for additional level of contingency above single contingency are required to pay for the full cost
of such provision.

3 Dedicated Network/Substation

The customer shall pay the full cost for all associated equipment and facilities under a dedicated network/substation
scheme which the network capacity is intended to serve to its development exclusively.

Substation comprises land, building, electrical equipment and associated cables. Substations which serve a
development or premises have to be provided and paid for by the developer or customer. As the capacity of electrical
equipment is lumpy, the substations may have excess capacity. The developer or customer will carry the cost of this
excess capacity which cannot be avoided. As these substations are required to serve the development or customer
loads, they are dedicated substations.

To reduce cost, a developer or customer can choose to let SPPA bear the cost of the electrical equipment and
associated cables. In return, SPPA must therefore be allowed to sell off the excess capacity. Even after the excess
capacity is sold off, SPPA remains committed to return the capacity to the customer if his demand grows later. At
present, most substations provided by developer or customer are non-dedicated substations.

 ■ Appendix 39.1

TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR CAPPED CAPACITY SCHEME (CCS)

1 The Consumer shall at its own expense, install and maintain, in accordance with such
requirements that Transmission Licensee may from time to time stipulate:

1.1 at the Consumer’s incoming switchboard (or at such other point that
Transmission Licensee may specify), a Load Limiting Device (“LLD”), which will
automatically disconnect the Service Connection from the Transmission
System in the event (“Event”) that the Consumer’s intake from the
Transmission System exceeds one hundred twenty percent (120%) of the
Contracted Capacity (“CC”) continuously for more than ten (10) seconds.

1.2 at the HT metering kiosk (or at such other point that Transmission Licensee
may specify), a Load Monitoring Device (“LMD”) including all control cables for
the LMD as well as metering accessories and telephone line(s) for
Transmission Licensee to monitor the Consumer’s intake from the
Transmission System.

2 Upon installation, all title, rights and interest in the LMD shall vest immediately in
Transmission Licensee. However, the Consumer shall ensure that:

2.1 The LMD shall at all times be set and adjusted to the satisfaction of
Transmission Licensee;

2.2 No modification, reset or adjustment to the LMD is carried out without first
obtaining Transmission Licensee’s approval;

2.3 The testing, commissioning and subsequent annual testing of the LMD as well
as any modification, reset or adjustment to the LMD approved by the
Transmission Licensee is to be carried out by a Licensed Electrical Worker and
in the presence of a representative from Transmission Licensee;

2.4 The LMD is re-tested and re-commissioned as and when required at the
discretion of Transmission Licensee;

2.5 All test results are submitted to Transmission Licensee at such address as
notified by Transmission Licensee within two (2) weeks of the testing;

2.6 The telephone line(s) set up for Transmission Licensee’s remote data
downloading from LMD shall be operational at all times;

2.7 Transmission Licensee officers are granted unrestricted access to substation

premises for on-site inspection and retrieval of data from the LMD; and

2.8 The LMD is covered under a valid maintenance contract providing for relevant
technical support and replacement parts to keep the LMD in good operational
condition at all times.

3 The Transmission Licensee shall witness the testing of LMD at its own expense. All
other expenses in connection with the testing of the LMD shall be borne by the
Consumer.

i
4 The conversion to CCS shall be effective upon the following (the “CCS Effective
Date”):

4.1 the Consumer’s compliance with Item 1 above; and

4.2 the successful commissioning of the LLD and LMD.

5 In the event that the LLD fails to cap the power demand (kW) drawn from the network
in the circumstances as described in Item 1.1, the Uncontracted Standby Capacity
Charge (“USCC”) shall apply and be payable.

6 USCC is a monthly charge payable in any month for the Uncontracted Standby
Capacity utilised. The Uncontracted Standby Capacity is the peak power demand in
kW drawn from the network exceeding 120% of CC, recorded from the time the power
drawn exceeds 120% of CC to the time the power drawn falls below 120% of CC. This
peak power demand is recorded by the LMD at single second intervals.

7 The rate of USCC shall be the prevailing rate stated in the Transmission Service Rate
Schedule. SPPA reserves the right to review the USCC rate applicable to the
Consumer from time to time, such review to be subject to EMA’s approval. The
current rate for USCC is 5 times CC Charge for demand drawn exceeding 120% of
CC.

8 For each Event, as defined in Item 1.1 above, the Consumer is required to submit,
within two weeks of the occurrence of the Event, a report to the Transmission Licensee
on the causes of the occurrence. The report shall also include the Consumer’s follow-
up actions to prevent similar Events from occurring.

9 The Consumer shall ensure that multiple sources of Transmission System are not
connected in parallel at any time, and that any switching between circuits is
undertaken on “black changeover” or “break before make” basis.

10 Transmission Licensee reserves the right to withdraw the CCS from the Consumer if
the Consumer fails to comply with the terms and conditions applicable to the scheme,
and to offer only the Summation Scheme (as outlined in Clause 12.14(a) of the CCA)
to such Consumer.

11 In the event of a change in scheme for whatever reason, the Service Connection may
be disconnected temporarily to facilitate the installation of energy meters and other
equipment for the purposes of the implementation of the Summation Scheme.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR EXTENDED CAPPED CAPACITY SCHEME (ECCS)

1 The Consumer shall at its own expense, install and maintain, in accordance with such
requirements that Transmission Licensee may from time to time stipulate:

1.1 at the Consumer’s incoming switchboard (or at such other point that
Transmission Licensee may specify), a Load Limiting Device (“LLD”), which will
automatically disconnect the Service Connection from the Transmission
System on the happening of any one of the following events (“Event”):

(a) when the Consumer’s intake from the Transmission System exceeds
one hundred twenty percent (120%) of the Contracted Capacity (“CC”)
continuously for more than one hundred (100) seconds; or

(b) when the Consumer’s intake exceeds two hundred percent (200%) of
the CC continuously for more than ten (10) seconds.

1.2 at the HT metering kiosk (or at such other point that Transmission Licensee
may specify), a Load Monitoring Device (“LMD”) including all control cables for
the LMD as well as metering accessories and telephone line(s) for
Transmission Licensee to monitor the Consumer’s intake from the
Transmission System.

2 Upon installation, all title, rights and interest in the LMD shall vest immediately in
Transmission Licensee. However, the Consumer shall ensure that:

2.1 The LMD shall at all times be set and adjusted to the satisfaction of
Transmission Licensee;

2.2 No modification, reset or adjustment to the LMD is carried out without first
obtaining Transmission Licensee’s approval;

2.3 The testing, commissioning and subsequent annual testing of the LMD as well
as any modification, reset or adjustment to the LMD approved by the
Transmission Licensee is to be carried out by a Licensed Electrical Worker and
in the presence of a representative from Transmission Licensee;

2.4 The LMD is re-tested and re-commissioned as and when required at the
discretion of Transmission Licensee;

2.5 All test results are submitted to Transmission Licensee at such address as
notified by Transmission Licensee within two (2) weeks of the testing;

2.6 The telephone line(s) set up for Transmission Licensee’s remote data
downloading from LMD shall be operational at all times;

2.7 Transmission Licensee officers are granted unrestricted access to substation

premises for on-site inspection and retrieval of data from the LMD; and

2.8 The LMD is covered under a valid maintenance contract providing for relevant
technical support and replacement parts to keep the LMD in good operational
condition at all times.

3 The Transmission Licensee shall witness the testing of LMD at its own expense. All

iii
 other expenses in connection with the testing of the LMD shall be borne by the
Consumer.

4 The conversion to ECCS shall be effective upon the following (the “ECCS Effective
Date”):

4.1 the Consumer’s compliance with Item 1 above; and

4.2 the successful commissioning of the LLD and LMD.

5 In the event that the LLD fails to cap the power demand (kW) drawn from the network
in the circumstances as described in Item 1.1, the Uncontracted Standby Capacity
Charge (“USCC”) shall apply and be payable. The USCC is a monthly charge payable
in any month for the Uncontracted Standby Capacity utilised.

6 For the purposes of this ECCS, the term “Uncontracted Standby Capacity” shall mean
the capacity by which the demand in kW drawn from the network:

6.1 exceeds 120% up to a level of 200% of the CC at the metered intake supply
point for a duration of more than 100 seconds continuously; or

6.2 exceeds 200% of the CC at the metered intake supply point for a duration of
more than 10 seconds continuously,

in both cases, arising from a failure by the Consumer to cap the demand in kW drawn
from the Transmission System. The definition of “Uncontracted Standby Capacity” as
stated in the CCA is hereby superceded.

7 The rate of USCC shall be the prevailing rate stated in the Transmission Service Rate
Schedule. SPPA reserves the right to review the USCC rate applicable to the
Consumer from time to time, such review to be subject to EMA’s approval. The
current rate for USCC is:

7.1 5 times CC Charge for demand drawn exceeding 120% up to 200% of CC; and

7.2 12 times CC Charge for demand exceeding 200% of CC.

8 For each Event, as defined in Item 1.1 above, the Consumer is required to submit,
within two weeks of the occurrence of the Event, a report to the Transmission Licensee
on the causes of the occurrence. The report shall also include the Consumer’s follow-
up actions to prevent similar Events from occurring.

9 The Consumer shall ensure that multiple sources of Transmission System are not
connected in parallel at any time, and that any switching between circuits is
undertaken on “black changeover” or “break before make” basis.

10 Transmission Licensee reserves the right to withdraw the ECCS from the Consumer if
the Consumer fails to comply with the terms and conditions applicable to the scheme,
and to offer only the Summation Scheme (as outlined in Clause 12.14(a) of the CCA)
to such Consumer.

11 The Consumer acknowledges and accepts that in the event of a change in scheme for
whatever reason, the Service Connection may be disconnected temporarily to facilitate
the installation of energy meters and other equipment for the purposes of the
implementation of the Summation Scheme.
