Installation Guide

Step 1: Survey & Planning

Map route and check existing utilities
Determine trench depth and width as per standards

Step 2: Trenching

Excavate trench to required depth
Use sand bedding or soft soil to protect ducts

Step 3: Laying the Duct

Lay ducts straight, avoiding sharp bends
Use junction boxes for directional changes

Step 4: Coupling

Join duct sections with bell & spigot or couplers
Ensure secure, watertight connections

Step 5: Pull Rope & Tracer Wire

Install pull ropes for cable installation
Lay tracer wire for easy future locating

Step 6: Cable Installation

Pull fiber optic or copper cables manually or via air-blown methods

Step 7: Backfilling

Fill trench with clean, compacted soil
Avoid rocks or debris to prevent duct damage

Accessories

Couplers - connect several duct parts.
End Caps - keep vents safe from rubble prior to wire installation.
Pull Ropes - help with the pulling of the wire.
Tracer Wires - find ducts for future digging.
Junction Boxes / Manholes - points of access and changes in direction.
Warning Tapes - mark the position of underground pipelines to prevent unintentional digging.

Maintenance Tips

Inspect the ends that are exposed and cover them with end caps.
Tracer wires must be maintained for the purpose of future locating.
Prepare a drawing of the duct layout for any upgrades or repairs.
Do not use heavy machinery over the ducts that have just been installed.

Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

Incorrect trench depth – follow telecom standards
No pull rope installed – always pre-insert
Sharp bends without junctions – use junction boxes
