INTRODUCTION 1.1 This document replaces the previous design criteria of April 2008 created in the Styldrift feasibility study. The reason for the change is due to the guideline specifications and IEC standards that have changed since the original document was drafted. The previous design criteria of April 2008 were also vague in some areas which are addressed in this document. 1.2 Change of ownership occurred in 2010. This brought with it a new approach challenging some of the Anglo Platinum specifications. This said that where savings cost can be realised without compromising the safety of personnel and the integrity of equipment then the specification could be changed. 1.3 The approach taken now is to update the design criteria as the project proceeds. This is not an unusual approach because standards / guidelines do changes regularly. This document details the design criteria which will be applied to the electrical portion of the Bafokeng Rasimone Platinum Mine Styldrift Merensky Phase 1 Project. 1.4 All project role players will be encouraged to continually use energy accounting practices and methodologies to ensure sustained energy savings. All relevant South African energy Efficiency Codes and Standards of Best Practices together with relevant Building Regulations, Health and Safety Legislation and all other pertinent statutory requirements will be adhered to. 1.5 The various energy efficiency recommendations described in this document are regarded as a minimum for existing and future loads. Energy efficiency should be coordinated across the Styldrift project to ensure commonality of energy efficient equipment, spares etc. 1.6 This document shall be read in conjunction with other specifications prepared for the project and the requirements of the applicable codes, standards, and regulations.

DESIGN BASIS 2.1 The basis of the design will be in accordance with; The Mine Health and Safety Act 29 of 1996 and Regulation (as amended) The Occupational Health and Safety Act 85 of 1993 (as amended)

2.2 In addition to the above, compliance with the latest amendments of the following organizations codes and standards shall be considered a minimum requirement. In the event of differing requirements between codes and standards, the most stringent code or standard shall apply.
