Equipment List

Crane Cable scissors Drums Truck Hand tools Scaffold

5.3.

Transport, Storage

Transportation of cable is made when the site is ready. Crane will be used and all necessary precaution will be taken. Providing crane to transportation of cable drums from lay down area to the field. Transportation pickup or crane carriage will have 4m length space. Use crane and pickup for lifting and carrying cables and accessories. Cable stay suitable place, so it prevents to work and workers work safely.

5.4.

Preparing Element Prior to Installation

5.4.1. Elements Cutting Cables comply with the project requirements. Where cutting of the cables is needed, cable scissors will be used.

5.5.

Installation

Installation will be carried out in accordance with the last approved revision of the installation projects. Request form for materials will be prepared. Cables will be transported from lay down area to site with crane. Crane will be loaded with slings and manpower. Cables will be fixed safely in the pickup board. At the working area, the cables will be placed in a way that will not prevent safe access and egress. The assembly drawings will be checked on the place of installation. Tower, fixed and movable type scaffold, which is approved and build according to safety requirements, will be used as access to works at high. The personnel that will erect the scaffolding will be competent. Scaffold will be tagged, ladder will be color-coded. Drums will be transported to the site, drums will be put on drums truck. Drums will be rolled with rod, cables will be pulled easily, and then meter of cable will be enough to cut, cables will be cut with cables scissors. Then edges of cutting cable will be prepared properly where it will be connected. When the works will be gone area that give permission to work, we will take permission from Customer for working. After cables will be pulled, cables direction will be coded according to projects where it goes. After the works is done daily, working areas will be cleaned.
