It is a good effort. However as per Electricity Act (EA) 2003, Central Electricity Authority has
formulated Regulations for Electrical safety 2010 & published in Gaze e of India. Hence as per
provision of EA 2003, IE Rules 1956 are repelled.

Sir, We have a request from electrical transmission company for crossing of underground EHV cable
( 33KV) across over existing underground LPG pipeline( crossing is perpendicular@ 90 deg angle).
What shall be mini. clearance between pipeline top and cable bo om. Pipeline is Cathodic protected (
-0.85 to -1.5 v). What precautionary measures we can take to avoid interference to our pipeline CP
system and avoid detrimental effect to our pipeline by high voltage in cable or any fault in cable.
We are planning to put RCC slabs in between pipeline and cable and enclose cable( 20 meter length)
in thick PVC pipe

Thanks a lot for sharing the Abstract of IE Rules.

One more thing I wanted to know that DG set Installion upto 10KVA permision is not required from
Electrical inspector, but above 10KVA is required,

I have tried to get the reference from where it has been taken, but could not get .

Can you tell me the reference clause of IE rule / Act or any other standards/documents in support of
it.

Dear Parmar, I am really thankful to you for this valuable piece of Article, I am a law professional
from Himachal Pradesh. Although your article is based on technical knowledge and a person
belonging to engineering sector may well understand your article but still it has some good enough
material for layman like me. Actually I am searching for some info regarding the distance of a
electricity transformer(63 kv) from a residential home but I am not ge ing the proper information on
this point. So if you can write on this topic it would be more helpful for a layman to gain some bit
more knowledge from your scholarly article. If you can provide me this info as to how much distance
a electricity transformer should be having from a residential house? I shall be really thankful to you
for this solicited help. If anyone reading this reply may give me the answer please onto the following

Dear Mr Jignesh. I am pleased to read your article,May you prosper always.
I may add that you also quote the no. of the relevant clause of the act against each note to make your
extracts more authentic.
Further to the above , for the flexible cables I wish to add in the relevant context,that sectional area of
the conductor of one of the wire should be larger as compared to others so that it may not burn off if
all other leads are burnt out due to short circuit & heavy fuse. This will keep the lead from breakage
which often results in the spread of elrctricity & fire.(This condition is essential for the unshielded
rubber insulated cables only, which are being used for domestic purpose in a large quantom now a
days.

Dear Shri Jignesh.Parmar,
I am D K Sharma, Retired Ass Electrical Engineer from Railways.
I feel very sorry, whenever I read about deaths due to overhead electrical wires snapping and falling
on the roads or in fields.
Para 87(1) of Indian Electricity Rules, 1956, stipulates ”Where an overhead line crosses or is in
proximity to any telecommunication line, either the owner of the overhead line or or the
telecommunication line, whoever lays his line later, shall arrange to provide for protective device or
guarding arrangement. This Guarding arrangement should be made for all LT and HT lines which do
not have any tripping arrangement in case the wire breaks.”

My question is, why Guarding is not made mandatory under Indian Electricity Rules 1956.
I have seen in UP, MP and Rajasthan, overhead lines in streets and on roads having no guarding
arrangement. Every year many deaths are reported due to falling of live electric wires on the ground
and causing deaths due to electrocution.

We want to know about horizontal distance between insulated AB cable of 415 volt system and
consumer premises. As per record there is 1.2 meter but this is in case of bare conductor but I want to
