Heating Cables
ELEKTRA
To maintain fixed positioning of the cable and
steady spacing conforming to the calculated
values, the cables need to be attached with the
ELEKTRA TMS installation tape (the tape should be
positioned with the distances of 40 cm) or instal-
lation mesh of 5 cm x 5 cm grid, made of Ø 2 mm
wire.
The heating cable layout should be commenced
from the side of the power supply conductor,
in such a way to enable easy reach to the switch-
board.
If the cold tail needs to be extended, a heat
shrink joint must be used. Ensuring that the con-
nection is safely sealed.

Stage 1: Heating cable’s
installation
1) in the surface
Before commencing the installation of the sys-
tem, it is required to assess the necessary heat
output per m
2
, as well as calculate the required
spacing of the heating cable.
In order to calculate the required heating cable’s
spacing, apply the following formula:
a-a = S/L
where:
a-a : distances between cables,
S : surface area, for the surface heated with
the heating cable,
L : heating cable’s length.
