NOTE: Class 1 tools shall not be approved for PDO contracts.

Class 2 A tool with double insulation and/or reinforced insulation throughout and without provision for earthing (IEC 61140).

All class 2 tools of accepted design have the symbol on the nameplate and are often referred to as "Double insulated".

Class 3 A tool designed for operation at safety extra low voltage (IEC 61140).

Safety Extra Low Voltage (SELV)

A nominal voltage not exceeding 42 Volts between conductors and between conductors and earth. No-load voltage not exceeding 50 Volts

2.2 WELDING MACHINES

When engine driven welding generators are equipped with a 240 V auxiliary single phase winding, supplying socket outlets for the use of hand held tools in compliance with Class 2 requirements, the installation shall be fitted with overload and earth fault protection devices as detailed in 2.6.4 and Figures 3 & 4. All sockets outlets shall be mounted on the generator.

2.3 DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM

2.3.1 Basis

The system and equipment described in this Specification are designed to allow safe, efficient, flexible and economic working on construction worksites in all matters relating to the distributing and use of electricity.

Installation of equipment and cables shall be in accordance with the same stringent standards used for permanent installations, with minor exceptions relating to cable supports. Although the installation may be only temporary, the harsh conditions on site require that the standard of installation should be equal to that of the company's permanent installations.

Installation of equipment on a PDO worksite shall allow convenient and safe access to permit authorised and competent operatives to work on apparatus contained within.

2.3.2 Source of Supply

The Contractor shall be responsible for the provision of electrical power in the construction site area. Normally this will be in the form of portable AC generator sets. Where a main supply is available, this requirement may be waived. However, it will be subject to agreement with the Company. Auxiliary socket outlets on welding machines may be used for the supply of hand tools of Class 2.

Metalwork of generating sets shall be bonded to metalwork of the Site distribution system. The star point of a three-phase generating set and the neutral of a single-
