Condition and LV Poles “S” “D” The ICP working under this procedure is not authorised to undertake work upon LV poles recorded, marked or determined by testing as condition and “S” “D”. Shared HV/LV Poles The ICP working under this procedure is not authorised to undertake work on UK Power Networks poles that carry both LV and HV conductors. Access to HV poles is prohibited. In addition, access to LV poles where HV conductors are present at a higher level but on separate supports, is also prohibited. Four-wire Open Crossed Networks The ICP working this procedure is not authorised to undertake work on overhead line LV distribution networks where records indicate the lowest height conductor is not a neutral conductor. If no records are available and the required on site phase / neutral demonstration indicates that the lowest conductor is a live line, the work shall not proceed on that section of LV distribution network. The tested LV network shall be reported to UK Power Networks. Split-phase Networks The ICP working this procedure is not authorised to undertake work on LV distribution networks where records indicate three-wire, two-wire, split-phase or other variations of overhead line LV distribution network that do not utilise a three-phase and neutral network. If any variations of overhead line LV distribution network are found on site the work shall not commence on that section of the overhead line LV distribution network. The network variation shall be reported to UK Power Networks.
