Power CabinetThe power cabinet will be placed on a precast concrete slab adjacent to the BTS cabinet (described above) andwill be oriented to the north-west. The cabinet will be aluminium and be approximately 1700 millimetres high by1000 millimetres long by 880 millimetres wide. It will be placed on a steel plinth with a minimum height of 200millimetres to allow for the management of cables entering the cabinet. The power supply will enter the cabinetvia conduit located at the rear of the cabinet.The power cabinet will consist of the following:• AC and earth terminations;• transfer switch (mains and generator positions);• surge protection;• general purpose outlet;• low voltage disconnect;• rectifier modules;• controller/supervisory module;• DC distribution rack; and• batteries (with the capability of providing a minimum of four hours back-up).MonopoleA 20 metre monopole will be erected approximately two metres to the east of the BTS and power cabinets in therail corridor 13 metres east of the track. The monopole will be constructed with a bored pile foundation. The polewill be hinged about 1200-1400 millimetres from the base to assist in the erection of the pole, but onceestablished, the hinge will be bolted in order to fix the monopole in place.Two Argus antennas will be mounted 19 metres above the ground with azimuths of 20° and 190°. The anten naswill be installed to have a zero degree tilt, but will be able to be remotely adjusted to different degrees of tilt,without the need to climb the monopole for such adjustments.3.1.3 Power SupplyThe power will be supplied from the existing street pole number 3A0168 on Montague Street, Fairy meadowwhich is approximately 70 meters from the proposed BTS site. A single phase aerial supply will be taken fromthis pole to a new pole, metering cabinet, 25 kVA isolation transformer all located in the vicinity of the monopole.Power wil be supplied to the power cabinet via a new buried cable placed in a conduit.3.1.4 Fibre OpticsThe nearest two designated Network Access Points (NAPs)/Communications Rooms are at 2ATJ0101 atSW79+290 which is 470 metres from the site. The second is at NAP 2ATJ0440 at SW80+250, which is 490metres away from the site. Both NAPs will be utilised at this site.Page 22 of 67
Two new 12 core single mode optical fibres (SMOF) will be run in two new separate conduits within a singletrench from the BTS cabinet to a new pit at SW79+774 in the down cess, approximate trenching distance is 17metres, from this point the two fibres will run through a new underline crossing to existing pit 2ATP04281 atSW79+774 in the up cess, at this point the two 12 core SMOF will take diverse routes to connect to theRailCorp Bearer Network. From pit 2ATP04281 fibre 2ATSXXXA will be routed through an existing RailCorpdirectional bore and pit and pipe route to NAP 2ATJ0101 where the fibre will be spliced to the RailCorp BearerNetwork. From pit 2ATP04281 fibre 2ATSXXXB will be routed through an existing RailCorp pit and pipe anddirectional bore to NAP 2ATJ0440 where the fibre will be spliced to the RailCorp Bearer Network. Fibreconnections are to be carried out by RailCorp.3.1.5 EarthingThe earthing installation will comprise six earth stakes at a pre determined distance apart. The grid will benominally 4.0 metres x 2 metres, placing the 6 earth stakes 2.0 metres apart. Once these earth stakes havebeen installed, the system will be tested and modified if needed.The initial extent of the trenching for earthing grid will be around 20 metres. However, it can be extended if theresults show that the earthing arrangement is insufficient3.2 Construction MethodologyConstruction of the BTS facility will require the use of approximately 200 square metres of land within theeastern side of the Illawarra Relief track. This area will allow for the erection of the monopole, power pole andthe slab containing the BTS and power cabinets.The monopole foundation will require an excavation approximately five metres deep with a diameter of onemetre. Approximately 10 square metres of ground disturbance is expected as result of excavation for monopole,power pole and a concrete slab. This will result in approximately ten cubic metres of excavated material. Thesoil from these excavations will be stockpiled before being used for backfilling and/or disposed of site. Soil thatcannot be used for backfilling (including, paving, rocks, etc) will be placed into a skip bin and removed from siteat the completion of construction works.Installation of the earth grid as well as power and fibre optic cables will require excavation of trenchesapproximately 1000 millimetres maximum depth. A total length of trenches is estimated to be around 100metres. All trenching excavation will be backfilled before the end of shift. If not practicable, trenches will becovered during nightThe construction methodology of the facility will include elements outlined below.• Non-destructive excavation before construction to establish underground installations.• Site establishment.• Excavation of the foundation for the monopole using excavator, drills or auger.• Delivery and pouring of concrete on site for the monopole foundation.Page 23 of 67
