Answer: Safety is paramount in any electrical construction project. At Ningbo Changshi, we strongly recommend the following best practices:

  1. Pre-Pull Planning: Always perform a thorough site survey to identify potential hazards, obstacles, and the exact cable route.

  2. Equipment Inspection: Before each use, inspect all equipment—including winches, ropes, and grips—for any signs of wear or damage. Ensure everything is in good working order.

  3. Adhere to Cable Specifications: Know the cable’s parameters, such as its maximum pulling tension and minimum bending radius, and never exceed these limits.

  4. Use Appropriate Lubrication: Apply a suitable lubricant to reduce friction and protect the cable.

  5. Tension Monitoring: Utilize tension monitoring equipment, such as dynamometers, to ensure that the pulling force remains within the safe limit throughout the entire pull.

  6. Proper Training: All operators should be properly trained in the use of the equipment and the specific safety procedures for the job.
