1. PURPOSE
This procedure establishes and describes the installation activities for electric power and
secondary cables.
2. SCOPE
The herein is applicable to installation of electric power and secondary cables within
electrical, automation and data systems and for the technological systems they serve.
3.2. - Secondary 3.2 – the cable used within instrumentation, signaling, control, block up, protection
cable and automation systems of voltage inferior to 400V. This category includes cables
for remote protection, tele-management, data transmission, having a service voltage
lower than 60V used in tele-signaling. Tele-measure, remote controls and remote
protection systems.
3.3. – Installation 3.3 – a document (cable list, IntEC sheet, DICON sheet, drawing, manufacturer
design specifications and instructions etc.) accepted by the client, containing all necessary
data (the equipment to be connected via a cable, cable type, route, terminal points
to connect the electric connection between two equipment.

6. PROCEDURE
6.1 Preliminary conditions
6.1.1. Before laying the cable, preliminary conditions must be ensured, as per IC-ELC-006.
6.1.2. Cable trenches have been digged and cable trays, conduits / tubes are installed and
the equipment to connect the cables are installed.
6.1.3. Before pulling cables the correspondence between design and site, regarding the
route shall be verified.
6.1.4. Cables reel was stored for at least 12 hours in a room at minimum 20 °C if air
temperature is lower than the one specified by cable manufacturer as minimum temperature when
pulling cables.
6.1.5. Before pulling cable on the drum continuity and insulation resistance have been
checked, according to IP-19 provisions, and the results are corresponding.
6.1.6. Before pulling each cable shall be identified according to design with a waterproof
tag.
6.1.7. When pulling cables in conduits / tubes, the cleanliness of the conduit / tube and lack
of moisture shall be verified. It is not permitted to pull cables in flashed conduits, with zinc spatters
or moisture.
6.1.8. Before pulling cables in conduits, the following verifications shall be performed:
a) interior diameter of conduit / tube is 1.5 greater than cable external diameter;
b) when several cables must be pulled in a conduit, conduit cross-section is 2+2.5
greater than the sum of cables cross-section.
6.1.9. A cable reserve to compensate deformations and to permit terminals and cable
sleeves renewal shall be provided in the following cases:
a) both sides of the penetrations;
b) for all cable sleeves, regardless of installation place, nominal tension or cable
type;
c) at the ends of cable route for cable with nominal tension of 6 kV or higher,
regardless of cable type;
d) when passing between structures with different vibration behavior.
6.2.0. The following minimum lengths shall be provided for the reserves:
a) for sleeves and penetrations the length necessary to remake twice the respective
sleeve;
4|8
b) for terminals the length necessary to remake once the respective terminal.

6.4 Cable installation on cable trays
6.4.1. Cables shall be laid in trays parallel to the edge of tray. Crossing is only permitted at
entry / exit points from trays.
6.4.2. Low-voltage power and control cables with a diameter smaller than 50 mm shall be
installed in cable trays without spacing.
6.4.3. Cables shall be fixed with plastic straps accepted by the client as close as possible to
entrance / exit points of trays.
6.4.4. Single-phase power cable shall be installed (as per design) in a triangle (club)
configuration, using nonmagnetic spacers and straps for fastening. Plastic spacers and straps are
accepted if they are correct dimensioned.
6.4.5. Three-phase power cables, for which spacing is required by design or installation
documentation, are to be laid in trays maintaining a minimum spacing of 0.25 outside diameter,
using for fastening the plastic straps.
6.4.6. Cables that needs to exit from the bottom of the tray will be protected with a piece of
cable descent “drop-out”.
6.4.7. The cables that are routed up to panels located at a superior elevation must be
supported with a “montant” type profile and fixed with plastic straps at minimum 300 mm under the
panels.
6.4.8. When power and control cables are to be installed on the same tray, a separation of
300 mm must be maintained between the two categories of cables.
6.4.9. Filling of trays shall not be more than 65% for power cables and 80% for control
cables.
