SCHEDULE.

2. CONTINUOUS currents shall be generated at 230 to 250 volts where two wires are used, or at 460 to 500 volts between the outers of the system where three wires are used. The declared pressure at the consumers’ terminals shall be 230 and 460 volts. Incandescent lamp circuits for private lighting shall be supplied at a pressure of 230 volts.

3. All overhead mains shall be of hard-drawn copper or aluminium, and may consist of bare conductors when supported on any line of poles already constructed or erected,

or to be constructed or erected, by the Corporation along such streets as may be approved by the Public Works Department’s Electrical Engineer, subject to the arrangement of such mains being approved by such Engineer before the work is begun, and provided that no other bare wires or mains (other than those authorized by this license) are already erected or shall hereafter be erected on such poles. Where any overhead mains are erected to cross over or under open telegraph or any other aerial wires or cables, they shall be covered throughout the entire length of every crossing-span with triplex weatherproof compounded braiding, or, where it may be impracticable or undesirable to so cover the mains at such crossing-places, the Corporation shall bear the cost of insulating the telegraph or other aerial wires to the satisfaction of the Minister of Telegraphs.

6. No electric-light wire shall come within 3 ft. of any other class of aerial wires or of cables except where it may be permitted to pass the electric-light wires through the other wires or cables at a pole.

7. Where lead-covered telephone cables are crossed above by the electric-light wires the latter wires shall be covered with triplex weatherproof compounded braiding throughout the crossing-span, and over every such span they shall be suitably suspended from effectively earthed steel bearer-wires, if the Minister of Telegraphs shall so require.

8. In places where it may be required to cross with the electric-light wires through any other aerial wires, or through cables, because of the impracticability of crossing above or below (and crossing above or below shall be done if possible), all such through crossings, if permitted, shall be effected at a pole. In every case of a through crossing with telegraph wires or cables the method of carrying the electric-light wires across the pole, protecting them thereon, protecting other wires from coming into contact with them, and protecting persons working on the poles from danger of shock, shall be to the satisfaction of the Minister of Telegraphs. The electric-light wires shall be covered with triplex weatherproof compounded braiding where they pass through on the poles and over the whole length of the span on each side of the pole crossed through. Where the covered wires cross through on the pole they shall be encased in some hard protecting substance for the entire length of the arms on such pole.

9. Where it cannot be arranged otherwise, and there is room on the telegraph poles, and other circumstances do not render it unsafe or impracticable, the electric-light wires, if covered with triplex weatherproof compounded braiding, may be run along on the telegraph poles, subject to any special conditions that it may be found necessary to impose at the time that the placing of such electric-light wires on the telegraph poles is being considered.
