Pulling 11kV cable is a heavy-duty task that requires specialized, professional-grade equipment to ensure safety and cable integrity. This includes:

• Hydraulic Cable Winches: Due to the weight and length of 11kV cables, a high-capacity hydraulic winch is necessary. Unlike smaller electric winches, a hydraulic winch provides the consistent power and control needed for long-distance, high-tension pulls.

• Cable Drum Stands (Jacks): Heavy-duty hydraulic or mechanical cable drum stands are required to safely lift and unspool the massive cable drums.

• Cable Pulling Grips and Swivels: A properly rated wire mesh pulling grip is used to connect the cable to the winch's pulling rope. An anti-twist swivel is essential to prevent the pulling rope from rotating, which could damage the cable.

• Cable Rollers and Sheaves: A sufficient number of heavy-duty conduit rollers and manhole sheaves must be placed at regular intervals and at all bends to support the cable and minimize friction during the pull.
