Minimum Bending Radius for Permanent Training - Tape Shielded Cable -- The minimum bending radius for tape shielded cables given below applies to helically applied flat tape or longitudinally applied corrugated tape or combination tape and wire shielded cables. The minimum bend radius to which insulated cables may be bent for permanent training during installation is twelve times the overall diameter for single conductor cable. For multiplexed single conductor cables, the minimum bending radius is twelve times the diameter of the individual conductor or seven times the overall diameter, whichever is greater.

PULLING GRIP - A basket-weave grip shall be used for relatively light pulls only. (IEEE 576, 4.1.2)
Schedule Q Sec. 1.3
A66
PULLING GRIP- Non-Metallic Sheathed Cables -- The smaller sizes of non-metallic sheathed cables shall be gripped directly by the conductors by forming them into a loop to which the pull wire or rope can be attached. The insulation on each conductor is removed before the loop is formed. Larger sizes are more easily handled by applying a pulling grip over the cable or cables, provided the pull is not too severe. if more than more than one cable is involved, the ends should be bound together with a friction tape before applying the grip overall. Long hard pulls will necessitate the use of pulling eyes . (IEEE 576, 4.6.1)
Schedule Q Sec. 1.3
A67
PULLING GRIP - Armor Cables -- In pulling armor cable it is necessary to grip to grip the armor and the conductors. This can be accomplished in a number of ways. One method requires that a portion of the armor be removed. Friction tape is then applied over the armor and down over the conductors, and a long basket weave grip is applied in such a way that it grips both the armor and the conductors. Another method requires that two holes be drilled through the cable (armor and conductors) at right angles to each other and that a loop be formed by passing steel wires through the holes and out over the end of the cable. A third approach would be to use a pulling eye and a grip together, the grip being applied over the armor to prevent its slipping back. The armor is not a tension member. Be certain pulling load is taken by the conductors. (IEEE 576, 4.6.3)
Schedule Q Sec. 1.3
A68
MINIMIZING PULLING TENSION - In order to minimize the pulling tension on the cable's), the cable should be fed into the duct run from the end nearest the bend. (IEEE 576, 4.5)

After installation, check to determine that end seals are still intact and have not been damaged to the point where water could enter. Apply plastic or rubber tape to help protect against invisible damage if the cable will be subjected to immersion or rain. This is particularly important if there will be a delay of some time between the pulling operation and splicing and terminating. (IEEE 576, 4.5 (d))
Schedule Q Sec. 1.3
A70
Jam Ratio - A check should be made by computing the ratio between the conduit inside diameter (D) and a single conductor overall diameter (d) to evaluate the potential for jamming. Because bending a cylinder produces an oval cross-section in the bend, use 1.05D for the conduit inside diameter. Evaluate for the jam ratio as follows, If 1.05D/d is larger than 3.0, jamming is impossible. If 1.05D/d is between 2.8 and 3.0, jamming is probable. If 1.05D/d is less than 2.5, jamming is impossible but check clearance. Note: Avoid jam ratios of 2.8 to 3.2 for extruded dielectric cables. (IEEE 576, 6.1)

CONTINUITY TEST FOR CABLE SHIELD AND CONDUCTOR - For shielded power cable, continuity test shall be performed on each conductor and the shield.
SAES-P-104 Sec. 13.2 (a)
B2
TESTING FOR NEW CABLES AND SPLICES - New installations of cable and splices shall be 5 kV megger tested between each conductor, and each conductor and the shield (for shielded-cable) and then DC high-potential tested after installation at voltage levels specified in 15SAMSS-502 and listed in Table 3.
SAES-P-104 Sec. 13.2 (a)
B3
TESTING OF NEW CABLE TO BE SPLICED TO EXISTING CABLE New cables to be spliced to existing cables shall be megger tested and DC high-potential tested prior to splicing. After splicing, the new and existing cable combination shall be 5 kV megger tested. In addition, if the existing cable has been in service for less than five years, the new and existing cable combination shall be high-potential tested to the voltage listed in Table 3.
SAES-P-104 Sec. 13.2 (b)
B4
TESTING OF EXISTING MV CABLES - Under special circumstances, as determined by the cable Proponent, an existing or old cable may be 5 kV megger tested, and, if it has been in service for less than five years, it may be high-potential tested to the voltage listed in Table 3. DC highpotential testing shall not be performed on cables that have been in service for more than five years.
SAES-P-104 Sec. 13.2 (c)
B5
HIGH-POTENTIAL TEST AFTER MOUNTING OR FORMING THE TERMINATIONS - The high potential test on medium voltage cables may be performed after mounting or forming the terminations, provided: (i) terminations have creepage distances (ii) terminations are not connected to equipment, unless the equipment can also be tested at the same voltage; and (iii) there are sufficient clearances from enclosures and other adjacent objects.
SAES-P-104 Sec. 13.2 (d)
B6
HIGH POTENTIAL TESTS AFTER INSTALLATION OF ELBOW CONNECTORS - If separable connectors (elbows) conforming to ANSI/IEEE 386 are used, the high potential test on medium voltage cables may, at the request of the cable Proponent, be performed after installation of the elbows. In this case: (i) the test must be performed with the elbows plugged into insulated parking bushings; and (ii) test voltage shall be the lesser of the ICEA cable test voltage listed in Table 3 and the ANSI/IEEE 386 DC withstand voltage. Commentary Notes: A) For new 15 kV cable, when tested with elbows, the test voltage is reduced from 64 kV to 53 kV DC; for 35 kV cable it remains unchanged at 100 kV DC (the ICEA cable test value); B) If 200 A elbows are installed on both ends of the cable, a feed-thru bushing instead of one of the two parking bushings may be used to apply the test voltage; C) In most cases, it is chosen to test the cables without the elbows.
SAES-P-104 Sec. 13.2 (e)
B7
The integrity of the overall jacket of direct buried cables rated 5 kV and higher shall be tested by conducting a 5 kV megger or high potential test between the cable insulation metallic shield (and sheath or armor, if any) and ground. (See Attachment, Table 11)
