Under the Electricity Act and Gas Act, any person who carries out earthworks in the vicinity of high voltage underground electricity cables (6.6kV, 22kV, 66kV, 230kV or 400kV) or gas pipes, is required to obtain information of the existing electricity cables or gas pipes, engage a Licensed Cable Detection Worker to carry out cable detection and notify SP no less than 7 days prior to the commencement of earthworks. This is to avoid any damage to the electricity cables and gas pipes.

We strongly recommend prior diversion of electricity cables and gas pipes in advance, if they are affected by the proposed earthworks. This would avoid any damage and minimise disruption to the progress of the earthworks.
Should any diversion of cable or gas pipe be required, please click here to request for diversion.
Before the start of earthworks, please send your Notice for Commencement of Earthworks (NCE) through e-submission here.

EMA and SPPG has implemented the Registered Earthworks Supervisor (RES) scheme to enhance the cable/gas pipeline damage prevention. Site supervisors, and anyone interested to be a RES, may enrol for the RES course conducted at BCA Academy (BCAA) or Singapore Institute of Power and Gas (SIPG). For contractors working under SPPA/SPPG, they will attend RES course conducted at SIPG. Upon successful completion of the RES course, site supervisors will have to register as a RES with SPPG, and be issued with a RES registration pass. RES registration has commenced as of 1st April 2017.
