5. INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
5.1.1 T h e cable route drawings for power, control, instrumentation cables indicates the
run route of cable to be pulled from the origin to the destination.Use the cable
route drawings to identify, check and confirm the cable rollers has been placed at
proper spacing and location. Identify also the location and placement of the cable
drum jockey for easy unwinding of cable during cable pulling.
5.1.2 The Cable Schedule indicates the cable drum number and cable designation tags
to be pulled from the origin to the destination.
5.1.3 Check the cable drum schedule to make sure the length specified on engineering
document and actual measurement of the cable route matches. If the design
length is shorter than the actual measurements, the foreman shall notify the Main
Contractor of the discrepancy.
5.2.1 Ensure all measurement equipment and tools are used safely and shall come
along with the calibration certificate.
5.2.2 Transfer the required amount of cable from storage to the floor at the installation
point as per cable schedule using fork-lift with cradle both reel flange between fork
tines and for the larger cable drum using crane, the cable drum from storage to the
B
crane access point by pickup/truck lifted by crane and when lifting the drum using
crane, use a shaft through the center of the drum and a spreader beam to the
particular floor to the work place and down carefully. The cable drum should
always be in an upright position. The cable drum shall be placed on a jack and
spindle resting it vertically on cable flange edge and not in horizontal position.

5.2.3 Cable unwinding shall be performed as per manufacturer standard, the cable is
unwound from the drum with the axis in horizontal position. The drum must rotate
easily so that the pulling strain to the cable will remain as small as possible. The
drum must not be slowled down except when preventing an extra loop when the
cable pulling stop.
5.2.4 All sharp & cutting edges of the cable tray and supports shall be removed
B ,smoothen, cleaned and the paint to be touched must applied at each welding
point / cutting edge and at any rude side support must be smoothen before cable
laying.
5.2.5 Check and ensure the duct bank cable raceways are clean without dirt, pebbles or
small debris. Clean the raceways by blowing compressed air into them.
5.2.6 Clean and smoothen the sharp edges of the entry and end points of the cable
raceways.
5.2.7 Ensure All hard materials and flakes on the cable tray/raceway shall be removed
prior to the cable pulling
5.3.1 Erect scaffolding along the cable pulling route wherever it is required before
starting the cable pulling work. It must been sured that the scaffolds are inspected
properly, provided with safety tags and safe touse. Ensure there is a safety line or
tie in point for safety harnesses.
5.3.2 Inspect and conduct an insulation resistance test on the cable drum together with
the contractor prior to cable pulling.
5.3.3 Before cable pulling, open required cable tray cover. P a t h blockage shall be
checked by inserting a draw wire and check that it reaches to other end
without hindrances.
5.3.4 Check and ensure cable ladders and trays are free from any sharp edges and
have the sufficient space for laying the cables.
5.3.5 Before pulling the cable, ensure it is marked at both ends according to the cable
number on the cable schedule by using paint markers. The markings shall be
protected with clear tape to prevent from getting wet or worn off during cable
pulling.
5.3.6 Place the cable drum jack stand or cable jockey along the side parallel to the duct
bank or the cable tray. Mount the cable drum to the drum jack stand or cable
jockey. Adjust the height until the cable drum can rotate freely when pulling the

cable in place.
5.3.7 Place a suitable number of the cable rollers, spaced evenly onto the cable trays to
prevent friction making it easy to pulling the cable along its route especially for
large diameter cables.
5.3.8 After the cable drum is already setup and ready for use, the end of t h e cable is
tied using a guide rope. The cable is unwound from the drum and laid over the
cable rollers. I t i s then pulled a n d l a i d o v e r the tray or cable trenches until
the cable end has reached its destination. The Power cables shall be installed on
B separate cable trays or trenches with mechanical separators from other cables. In
case of long distance or hidden areas to pull the cable, Use two-way radio in both
ends as a means of communication to synchronized the pulling cable process.
5.3.9 When the required length has been pulled and cut, both ends shall be provided with
identification markings again or with name plate.
5.3.10 Ensure that the cables are properly arranged on the tray and the cable shall be
B arrage to minimize twist,crossover etc. The cable will then be tied securely in place
using nylon cable ties making sure the cable spacing is maintained.
5.3.11 When the high voltage cable is installed, the fixing tools allowed are the
pulling-head; pulling-eye, attached directly on the metal conductor, or the pulling-
stocking; pulling-grip, which shrinks due to the traction, and which is placed on top
of the cable oversheath. Short cable lengths can also be pulled by people in
special cases, by grabbing and holding the cable by hand from its oversheath. In
this case the maximum traction is calculated in the same way as when using the
pulling- stocking. When a pulling-head or a pulling-stocking is used for the
B
installation pulling, the required cable lengths must be determined in such a way
that the cable ends being pulled can be cut by at least 1 metre (the
section being strained by pulling tension) before installing the accessories.
The cable tension various type of cable will not be more than those specified
below :

Ensure the bending radius various type of cable will not be less than those
specified below :
Minimum of 20 % spare capacity will be maintained in the cable raceway for future
use.
5.3.12 Measure the required length of cable from the bottom entry of panel for
termination to destination terminal block. The total length of cable allowance for
dressing and termination shall be determined and measured according to the
need and space available running to its terminal point.
5.3.13 Inspect and conduct an insulation resistance test and continuity on the cable
together with the contractor after cable pulling.
5.3.14 Cable ends shall be sealed properly with electrical tape until the glanding and
termination begins.
