9、a power cut for a long time in the quake-stricken region due to the breakdownof electric power equipment , which severely hampered the efforts of emergency disaster relief andhence aggravated the disaster.China is an earthquake-prone country. The previous earthquake cases demonstrate severe seismicd
10、amage to electric power facilities too. With the constant development of the economy in China ,especially in the West China development drive , many important electric power facilities have been orwill be constructed. Owing to the frequent strong earthquake activities in the west part of China , the
11、study on the seismogeological conditions in the selection of the sites of these electric power facilitieshas become very important . 1 SEISMOGEOLOGICAL CONDITIONS FOR THE SITE OF LARGE ELECTRICPOWERFACILITIES As is well known , a seismic disaster can obviously affect the engineering site in three as
12、pects :the first is ground faulting caused by the earthquake ; the second is strong ground motion ; and the thirdis earthquakeinduced geological disasters such as landslides , mud-rock flows and liquefaction. So thelargest influencing factors in seismogeology on an engineering site are active faults
13、 and seismicintensity. The large electric power facilities should be located in relatively tectonically stable areas ,i.e. areas with little influence fromfaults and lower seismic intensity. According to the electric powerindustry standards of China-Technical code for investigation of geotechnical e
14、ngineering of fossil fuelpower plants DLPT507421997 (Ministry of Power Industry , 1997) and the characteristics of actualseismic disasters , we should take measures to keep away fromfaults that may affect the stability of thesite area during site investigation for large power facilities. The distanc
15、e to the fault depends on theactivity level and the dimensions of the fault , the thickness of the overburdens , the seismic intensityand so on. Generally it can be determined according to Table 1 as below: Table 1 The safety distance of large electric power facility site to fault and the measures t
16、o be taken Classification of fault Safety distance and measures : Holocene intensely active fault and seismogenicfault (fault slip rate v 1.0mm/a ; with historicalearthquake of M 6.0) When basic intensity is ,the safety distance is 2000m3000m away from fault ;When basic intensity is , thesafety dist

19、97)So , regarding the seismic and geological safety for large electric power facilities , there are twomajor influencing factors , one is the earthquake intensity and the other is the activity of the fault andits spatial distribution relation to the engineering site. 2 CASE STUDIESTHE SELECTION OF T
20、HE SITE FOR THE 500KV TRANSFORMERSUBSTATION IN SHIMIAN, SICHUAN PROVINCE, CHINA An Overview of the Studied AreaThe Shimian , Sichuan area is located in the high mountainous area in the west of China , withabundant water resources. The Dadu river runs through the area with a length of 84km. There are
21、 27branch rivers in the area with a catchment area of over 30km2 each , e. g. the nanya river , theXiaoshui river , the Songlin river , and the Tianwan river , so on. The natural runoff volume in the areais 27.3 billion cubic meters , and the exploitable hydro-energy resource is 4 ,500 megawatt . Re
22、cently ,various kinds of hydro-power stations were or will be constructed in and around this area. So , theimportance of choosing the proper sites for large electric power substations is self-evident . The electricpower department selected four candidate sites in the area for evaluation , i . e. the Wajiao site , theSonglin site , the Sudaping site and the Meiluo site (Fig. 1) .The area is featured
