3 Basic provisions
3.1 The following principles shall be followed in the electric power design of production plant:
a) Earnestly implement national technical and economic policies to ensure personal and equipment safety, reliable power supply, advanced technology and economic feasibility.
b) Give priority to near-term design and combine it with the long-term design according to project characteristic, scale and development planning; properly remain the development side and reserve no land for expansion in principle.
c) Take overall consideration and determine reasonable layout and design scheme according to the nature of the load, capacity and environmental conditions.
d) Take various energy-saving measures actively for electrical design to reduce power consumption.
3.2 The implementation of this specification shall also meet the requirements of the relevant current national and professional standards and codes.
4 Power supply & distribution system
4.1 Load classification
4.1.1 The electrical loads of the production plant shall be classified into Class I loads, Class II loads and Class III loads according to their importance in the production process and requirements for power supply reliability and continuity.
4.1.2 Class I loads refer to the electrical loads for the production plants which need a long time to resume production after power restoration as well as the public works ensuring their normal operation where the working power supply of production plant is interrupted suddenly and thus leads to disruption of key continuous production processes and significant economic losses.
4.1.3 Among Class I loads, upon sudden power interruption of the production plant, those which cannot be subjected to power interruption in order to ensure safe shutdown, avoid causing explosion, fire, poisoning, casualties and key equipment damage, or make timely treatment in case of an accident to prevent accident expansion, protect key equipment, rescue and evacuate the working personnel shall be regarded as particularly important loads.
4.1.4 Class II loads refer to the electrical loads for the production plants which need a long time to resume production after power restoration as well as the public works ensuring their normal operation where the working power supply of production plants is interrupted suddenly and thus leads to significant economic losses.
4.1.5 Class III loads refer to all electrical loads other than Class I loads and Class II loads.
4.2 Power supply requirements
4.2.1 The power supply for Class I loads shall meet the following requirements:
