Safety is paramount in any electrical construction project. Key precautions and the tools we provide to support them include:

1. Risk Assessment: Always perform a thorough risk assessment and use utility detection tools to map out existing underground services before any excavation begins.

2. Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): Workers should be equipped with insulated gloves, safety boots, hard hats, and high-visibility clothing to prevent electric shock and physical injury.

3. Proper Handling: Utilize appropriate cable handling equipment such as cable drum jacks, cable reel trailers, and underground-Cable-Laying-Equipment-and-Tools.html target='_blank'>cable rollers to manage the heavy and rigid armored cables safely, preventing mechanical damage and reducing strain on workers.

4. Earthing and Termination: The armor of the cable must be properly earthed (grounded) to prevent electric shock hazards. This is done with the use of the correct cable glands and earthing tags, ensuring a safe and secure termination.

5. Testing: Post-installation, perform rigorous electrical tests, such as high-potential (Hi-Pot) testing, to verify the cable's integrity and ensure compliance with all safety standards before energizing the line.
