How is the pulling tension controlled during cable installation?

2025-08-14

Controlling pulling tension is one of the most critical aspects of cable laying to prevent stretching or damage. We use specialized equipment and techniques:

  • Cable Pulling Winch: A tension-controlled winch is used to pull the cable. The winch is equipped with a dynamometer to monitor the tension in real-time, ensuring it does not exceed the cable manufacturer’s recommended limit.

  • Pulling Rollers and Lubricant: Rollers are placed along the trench or duct route to minimize friction. A compatible cable pulling lubricant is also used to reduce friction and decrease the pulling force required.
