set up using star pickets and sandbags and the bend radius is to be
measured with a tape measure to ensure the bend radius will not be
exceeded.
• The rope where required will be run out along the route and placed
on the rollers.
• The cable on the drum will be checked again that it is the correct
size, type and length, then verified by QA before pull begins.
• The cable will be connected to the rope with rated cable swivel and
cable pulling sock, this sock will also be wired to the cable and all
edges that might catch will be taped up and protected.
• The sock will be fully inspected for signs of damage, if damage is
found the sock will be tagged out of service and reported to the
supervisor.
• Check the sock is the correct size for the cable to be pulled in
ensuring that the sock is not too large
• Expand the sock by condensing its length to cause the mouth to
open up, insert the cable fully up to the head of the sock.
• The sock will also be securely fixed to the cable and all edges that
might catch will be taped up and protected
• All cable shall be securely fixed to the tray, work and the complete
installation must be carried out in a neat and workmanlike manner

CABLE PULLING AND DRESSING
All persons involved with the cable pull will muster at the cable set up position and be
briefed by the supervisor in charge of the task that is being performed and radio checks
will be performed.
The cable will be installed by persons taking up stations along the cable route and they will
be responsible to monitor the cable as it is progressively pulled off the drum. The spacing
at which the persons are placed will be dependent on the cable size and weight. At all
deviations and corners a person will be stationed to assist and monitor the cable travelling
around the corners and all personnel will have communication via a hand held radio.
Where a hand pull rope is used the work crew will be stationed at pre-determined
position for the pull. When the start command is given by the pull coordinator the work
crew will pull in unison. A designated person shall walk with the head ensuring its smooth
passage along the trench and around corners. At all deviations and corners a person will
be stationed to assist and monitor the cable travelling around the corners and all critical
personnel will have communication via a hand held radio.
Minor cable roller adjustments will be made as required to ensure that the cable is
running correctly across the rollers.
At no point will any person be subject to excessive strain when making roller adjustments
and the cable pull will be stopped when these adjustments are required
The cable pull will continue until the required length at the destination point has been
reached.
Once the correct length has been pulled in, the supervisor will check that the correct
length has been reached, the cable will not be cut at this point.
Approved cable pulling lubricant shall be used in case of pulling cable through ducts.
Ensure the conduit ends terminated to concrete surface is with bell end fitting.
Ensure the conduit ends are smooth in order to avoid any outer sheath damage.
Any accident damage to outer sheath of the cable or factory damage found shall be
informed to SPQC for assessment before proceeding.
The cable will be lifted off the rollers and positioned on the sand bedding as required,
paying particular attention to the cable segregation as per the specifications and drawings.
All horizontal cables are to be set around all vertical rising services as necessary. Ensure
sufficient clearance from soffit for every installation.
All cable shall be securely fixed to the tray, work and the complete installation must be
carried out in a neat and workmanlike manner without crossovers
Cables will be dressed as per the site standards for cable segregation, trench and duct
section drawings

CABLE PULLING AND DRESSING
If there is a requirement to make fine adjustments to cable locations, this will be done
using sufficient persons to ensure that at no point wills any person is subject to excessive
strain or with the aid of a timber lever or soft slings to avoid bending.
Cables will be dressed into corners ensuring the bend radius as detailed in the
Manufacturers Data Sheet is not exceeded by measurement of the radius.
Once the cable has been dressed into the correct position, the supervisor will check that
both ends have the required length of cable and when this has been confirmed, the cable
will be cut.
If single core cables are installed, they will be dressed into a trefoil formation and
embraced with a non-magnetic PVC coated stainless steel cable tie of the appropriate
length for the size of the trefoil bundle as per SA Specification for Electrical Installation.
Once the cable is cut the QA/QC department will be called and they will complete the
required tests and install the cable end caps, if the cable has not been tested after
installation is complete, end caps will be fitted to prevent the ingress of moisture. This
will be achieved by means of a glue lined heat shrink cap or an approved cold shrink cap
placed over the end of the cable and shrunk with a heat gun / gas blow torch. (Hot works
Permit required).
Each Cable will be fitted with a Stainless Steel Cable Label permanently etched with the
cable number allocated by the relevant IFC Cable Schedule, attached by use of 2 PVC
coated stainless steel cable ties at 30m spacing, changes in direction, entry and exits to
duct banks and at each end of the cable as per SA Specification For Electrical Installation.
Any damage found on cable shall be recorded and QA notified ASAP.
The cable will be required to be coiled into positions determined by the Contractors coil
position drawing.
During the coiling of the cable all personnel involved with the task will work together as
a team and all movements will be communicated by the leading hand before any
movement takes place.
The manufactures minimum bending radius will not be exceeded at all time during
coiling.

Work Permit should be returned and signed as closed by Aramco as works completed.
Cables can be seriously damaged if proper care is not exercised in its storage, in the warehouse
or laydown yard. The following factors shall be considered for cable storage:
• Cable drums shall be stored on firm and flat surfaces to ensure that
flanges of the drum do not sink into the ground.
• Water shall not accumulate at the storage location.
• Storage location shall be away from any ongoing construction, chemical
or petroleum sources, open fires, heat sources or heavy vibration areas.
• Cable drums shall be supported on flanges only. Drums shall never be kept
flat.
• Loose cable coils shall be stored on wooden pallets. Coiled cable shall be
properly tied with rope or wire at four (4) or more points round the coil.
The coil radius shall not be less than the minimum-bending radius of the
cable. (Cable bending radius shall be as per the manufacturer
recommendations).
• During storage, cable ends must remain capped with appropriate heat-
shrinkable caps to prevent moisture from entering the cable.
• Cable shall not be stored exposed to sun for long term once the outer
cover of the drum is open.
• All empty drums and balance cable shall be removed from work site
immediately after completion of activity to that cable drum.
