2. Service density underground is considered as per suburban development.
3. Shield at structure boundary is conductive frame with non-conductive cladding.
4. The structure surroundings are considered to be similar in height.
5. Dimensions of the structure are 5 x 3 x 5.1 (L x W x H) in meters.
6. The length of the service lines from the Transformer LV side to MDB is considered to be
550 mts.
7. No. of zones considered for this structure is two zones.
8. Type of floor is ceramic/concrete.
9. Risk of fire is ordinary (400M.J/m2 - 800 M.J/m2)
10. Fire protection system is manual.
11. The panic level in the structure is low.
12. No. of occupants in this structure is considered to be 2 persons.
