(i) Failure or interruptions due to factors beyond the reasonable control of the
Contractor e.g. failures or interruptions due to reasons which originated outside the
Contractor s scope of supply
Examples:
Natural disaster like earthquake, lightning, fire , flood , war or other force

Blackout due to loss of extemal electricity supply


Interruptions caused by the momenty loss of the auxiliary power supply

beyond the designed limits


Accidental operation of safety provisions by EVN s sta:ff, which is made
against the Contractor s Engineer s instruction.
Failure caused by unexpected obstacles in the fuel supply beyond the
designed limits
(ii) Defects of parts which can be repaired during plant operion within twenty four
(24) hours after Permit-To-Work (PTW) shall be considered minor, always
providing that load is maintained to suit the demand and it does not interrupt the
power supply or endanger plan'personnel safety.
These minor defect items sha11 be properly analyzed and reported to EVN within
