Tightening Torques and Cable Protection
4.5.1
Tightening Torques for Power Cable Connections
Tighten the cable with the proper torque shown in Table 4-2; for fear of loosen of cable
lugs that may cause poor contact or high contact resistance, even fire.

Cable Protections
z
Protection of communication cable:
−
Communication cables are thin and easily to be broken. Lay power cables first
then communication cables.
−
Communication cables should be laid in cable trench or cable support arms or
tighten up by cable ties.
−
Avoid heat element and the strong electric filed.
z
Protection of power cables:
−
Strong electric current in power cables. Protect the insulating layer from sharp
edges.
−
Tighten power cables up with insulated cable ties if necessary.
