How are underground cables installed, and what equipment is needed?

2025-08-09

underground cable installation is a precise process that requires specialized tools and equipment to ensure safety and longevity. There are several methods, with the most common being direct laying and the draw-in system.

  • Direct Laying: A trench is dug, the cable is laid on a bed of sand, and then backfilled, often with protective bricks. Equipment needed includes trenchers and cable plows.

  • Draw-in System: Cables are pulled through pre-installed conduits or ducts. This method allows for easier maintenance and future expansions.

We specialize in manufacturing and supplying a wide array of underground cable laying equipment and tools, including trenchers, cable pullers, rollers, and winches, which are essential for the safe and efficient installation of underground power lines.
