CONDITIONS.

“Earthed” means connected to the general mass of earth in such a manner as to ensure at all times an immediate and safe discharge to earth of electric energy.

“Electric line” means any wire, wires, conductor, or other means used for conveying, transmitting, or distributing electricity for power, lighting, or heating purposes; and includes any instrument, insulator, casing, tubing, pipe-covering, or post enclosing or supporting an electric line, or anything connected therewith.

“Inspecting Engineer” means and includes any Inspecting Engineer appointed by the Minister to inspect the works to be constructed or maintained by virtue of electric-line licenses issued under the Public Works Act, 1908, and any or all of its amendments, or under any one or more of such amendments only, or any Act or Acts passed in amendment thereof or substitution therefor.

“Minister” means Minister of Public Works.

“Telegraph line” has the same meaning as “electric line” in the Post and Telegraph Act, 1908, and also includes all telegraph, telephone, and electric signaling wires belonging to the Government Railways Department.

The positive conductor shall be covered throughout, and the covering may consist of vulcanized indiarubber or of triple braiding thoroughly impregnated with weatherproof compound. The negative conductor may be bare.

3. The conductors shall be carried on substantial and durable supports, which shall be designed to have a factor of safety of four in the case of steel, iron, or ferro-concrete, and five in the case of wood, calculated upon the ultimate strength of the material, assuming the wind-pressure to be 20 lb. per square foot upon a plane surface, and 12 lb. per square foot upon a diametral plane upon a cylindrical surface.
