10.5.2 BELOW GROUND CABLE
For transmission of the below ground signal, a below ground cable with steel reinforcement especially developed
for BAUER company, is used which serves above all as anti-bite protection (
against rodents etc. ).
It is pointed out expressively that perfect and long-lasting function can only be guaranteed with the original BAUER
below ground cable. Multi-part below ground cables must be connected exclusively with the connecting sleeves
supplied along and they must be closed so that they are absolutely waterproof. Mind that the original status of the
cable at the connection point must be re-established, that is, the copper wire must be insulated duly and in addition
the wire must be enveloped with the steel cover. Then the connecting sleeve can be sealed and closed.
ATTENTION: Mind the correct connection of the below ground cable to the EARTH STRIP!
Laying of the cable must be done by means of appropriate machines and devices in order to ensure exact
straightness of the cable. The maximum cable deviation must not exceed ±1,5 cm. Be sure that there are no abrupt
"changes in direction" such as buckles etc. in the cable because they would cause increased stresses in the
trusses and/or in the system and they would hence lead to malfunction.
If you use an
OPEN CONDUCTOR LOOP WITH ASYMMETRICAL LAYOUT for the track guide ( see 7.2.2 Limits
when using an open conductor loop with ASYMMETRICAL LAYOUT ), you must lay the below ground cable with a
slight curve “to the inside” at both ends of the field because this begins to “sense” the return conductor and would
subsequently cause a deviation from the straight line.
The path of the curve depends on 2 factors: the height of the antenna relative to the buried cable and the distance
to the return conductor at the respective end of the field. It is recommended to initially refrain from closing the
“cable trench” at the ends of the field after laying the cable. A test run with any necessary corrections must be
performed in order to ensure that the system moves straight, as intended. It should also be ensured that the ground
at the start and end of the field is sufficiently level since any unevenness would alter the height of the antenna,
which could have an influence on the straight travel of the machine as described above.
