The maximum water head endured by the floor of the high-pressure branch pipe at the Zhongdong Pumped Storage Power Station in Huizhou, Guangdong, is approximately 800 m during operation. The stability of the surrounding rock under this high internal water pressure is critical to the station's safe operation. To address this, in-situ stress and high-pressure water injection tests were conducted. Combined with three-dimensional in-situ stress field inversion, the stress field distribution, permeability characteristics, and hydraulic fracturing resistance of the high-pressure branch pipe area were analyzed, and the layout of bifurcated pipe was optimized. The results indicate that the maximum principal stress in the high-pressure branch pipe section ranges from 15.0 to 16.6 MPa, and the minimum principal stress ranges from 8.4 to 9.7 MPa. The rock permeability ranges from 0.01 to 0.19 Lu, indicating very low to low permeability. The initial high-pressure branch pipe location meets the stability requirements against uplift and seepage. However, within a 7 m range of the branch pipe opening, the class Ⅲ rock mass segment is affected by faults and does not meet the engineering requirements for hydraulic fracturing resistance. Based on a comprehensive analysis of the surrounding rock conditions, uplift resistance, hydraulic fracturing resistance, and seepage resistance, the initial high-pressure branch pipe location was shifted 10 m toward the powerhouse, which meets the stability requirements for uplift, hydraulic fracturing resistance, and seepage resistance.
