8 10.4 Protection against fire General The housing and all associated equipment shall be designed to prevent the propagation of fire either from external sources (e.g. power transformers) or in the event of an electrical failure of the high voltage switchgear or power cables in accordance with clause 8.6 of IEC The materials used in the construction of the housing shall be non-flammable. The housing shall be so constructed to provide adequate fire protection in the event of a transformer fire in an outdoor installation in accordance with clause and table 3 of IEC The transformer shall be assumed to be oil-filled with a oil volume of up to 20,000 litres. The housing shall provide the minimum fire ratings detailed below, such that in the event of an external fire, its stability shall be maintained for this period (i.e. in the event of an external fire, spread of fire to inside the prefabricated substation housing shall not occur for a minimum period as specified by the fire rating). i) Where a fire separating wall is installed between the transformer and the prefabricated substation housing, then the housing shall offer a minimum 60 minute fire rating. ii) Where a minimum clearance of 5m is provided between the transformer and the prefabricated substation housing, then the housing shall offer a minimum 60 minute fire rating. iii) Where no fire separating wall is installed between the transformer and the prefabricated substation housing and the above clearance cannot be achieved then the housing shall offer a minimum 90 minute fire rating. Additionally, in the event of a fire initiating within the housing, spread of fire to external areas shall not occur for a minimum period of 60 minutes The Tenderer shall provide costs for substation housings and indicate the fire rating duration within the schedules in Appendix A. SPEN may design out the level of fire risk by installing the substation housing in a low risk area. For example: - not in the vicinity of other plant and apparatus or buildings. Provision is made within schedules A1, A4 and A7 (Fire Resistant for Low Risk Locations) to allow a cost effective solution to be offered. The Tenderer shall provide details in relation to materials used and fire resistance should the housing be subject to fire as a result of vandalism. The required fire rating requirements shall be specified by The Company at the time of order Escape paths The housing shall be designed such that escape paths and emergency exits can be used in the event of fire in accordance with IEC There shall be a minimum of two exits from any position inside the housing. The exits shall be positioned such that personnel inside the housing shall have unrestricted access to at least one of these exits. The travel distance to the unrestricted available exit door shall not exceed 12m. The minimum unobstructed width of the escape route, or any part thereof, shall be not less than 900mm. The escape route shall have a clear height of at least 2m except that in a doorway this may be reduced to 1.9 m. The minimum door width shall be 750mm. A minimum distance of 600mm shall be provided at the rear of the switchgear to allow for installation, commissioning, fault repair and maintenance activities. Switching operations associated with the switchgear shall be considered as an escape route and a minimum of 900mm shall be provided. SP Power Systems Limited Page 8 of 47

9 Where the civil design, switchgear type and housing construction allows (i.e. no work or maintenance requirements inside the housing) the Company shall install the switchgear adjacent to the rear wall providing a minimum clearance of 50mm. A minimum distance of 500mm shall be maintained when the door of a switchgear or control panel is in the open position. An example sketch showing minimum clearances is detailed within Appendix B. The exit doors shall open outwards. The doors shall open without the use of a key and have a suitable notice explaining the operation of the opening device. The exit doors shall be clearly marked on both sides with a suitable sign. In addition, the doors must be sized and positioned to afford the entry and manoeuvring of additional plant and the removal, or replacement, of pre-fitted switchgear and equipment. The doors shall be fitted with neoprene seals and self-closing mechanisms Signage Signage indicating escape routes shall be installed Protection from danger resulting from arc fault The installation shall be designed and installed so that SPEN personnel and the public are protected as far as reasonably practicable from arc faults. Failure within the prefabricated substation housing due either to a defect or mal-operation may initiate an internal arc, which can constitute a hazard if persons are present. To consider this hazard, distinction must be made between personnel and the general public. Personnel may be inside the substation, however, the general public may be in the vicinity of the substation at any time. The high voltage metal-enclosed switchgear shall be tested to provide protection to operators in accordance with accessibility Type A class IAC AF as detailed in clause of ENATS Evidence of the effectiveness of the design at providing protection to the general public in case of an internal fault shall be provided. This evidence shall be obtained by type testing for class IAC-B substations as detailed in Annex A of IEC Satisfactory proof of performance under the test shall be provided within the schedules in Appendix A. Where the prefabricated substation housing has not been type tested in accordance with Annex A of IEC , then, The Company may consider acceptance of either a simulated test or a calculation. The criteria for acceptance of the simulated test shall be an energy release of equal or greater magnitude to that which would be caused by an internal arc failure at rated voltage and current, using a predetermined value. The Tenderer shall provide full details of any simulated tests or calculations (preferably in lieu of testing) as detailed within IEC at the time of tender for consideration by The Company Earthing A main earthing system shall be provided connecting all extraneous metal of the substation housing to earth. The earthing system shall also be suitable for the connection of all ancillary and control equipment earthing systems. The earthing conductor shall be in accordance with IEC and shall be sized to match the type tested short time current rating of the switchgear installed within the substation housing. The system shall be designed such that in the event of an external HV fault no system fault current shall flow through the earthing system of the housing. The substation earth mat shall be connected directly to the switchgear earth bar at two separate points, normally one at each end of the switchboard. The substation earth mat shall be connected to the housing earth bar at one point only to prevent the possibility of circulating currents through the housing. SP Power Systems Limited Page 9 of 47

10 A permanently fixed engraved label shall be fitted adjacent to each earth connected to the housing earth bar to clearly identify what item is being earthed at that point. Earthing tape shall be copper and the connections shall be within the housing to deter vandalism/theft. An example sketch of a compliant solution is detailed within Appendix B Cable access Containerised solutions (Typically used to house 11kV swgear at Primary substations) The cable trenches and access points shall be fitted with non-magnetic blanking plates and gland plates to prevent entry of vermin or other pests. The blank plates associated with the HV power cables shall be predrilled to suit the cables specified by The Company at the time of order. The pre-drilled holes shall have suitable protection provided to prevent vermin access at site prior to cable installation. All cable holes and other access points shall be covered over during transit with covers that shall be readily removable with light hand tools Enclosure solutions (Typically used to house 33kV loose fit swgear at Grid substations) As there is no floor to the housing, there is no requirement to provide any facilities for cable access Drainage The housing shall be designed to ensure the hygienic and safe disposal of water discharges from the roof and dehumidifier. The roof and the dehumidifier drainage shall be so designed as to channel and pipe any rainwater or condensate to ground level on the outside of the housing. These channels or pipes shall be designed to be robust and vandal resistant Finishes The external finishes shall be heavy duty coatings designed to provide a minimum 10 year period to first maintenance. The external walls, unless otherwise directed will have a final finish colour of RAL7033, Cement grey. The walls and roof shall be constructed and finished in such a way that moisture from the ground or the weather will not damage the fabric or penetrate to the inner surface of the building. The internal walls and ceiling shall be designed in such a way as to provide a minimum 10 year period to first maintenance. The internal walls, unless otherwise directed will have a final finish colour of RAL9010, Pure white. The colour of the floor in containerised solutions shall be red. On completion of delivery and installation any and all damage to any of the surfaces shall be made good to no less a standard than the above finishes Maintenance The prefabricated housing shall be maintenance free as far as practicable. The Tenderer shall provide details of recommended maintenance requirements and frequencies including repairs to damaged paintwork etc. The housing shall be designed so that any inspection and maintenance can be carried out safely. Where special tools or equipment are required for maintenance of the housing then the Tenderer shall provide details at the time of Tender within the schedules in Appendix A. SP Power Systems Limited Page 10 of 47
