Cable pulling and jointing, end to end.
Whether it's a single LV service feeding a new build or a run of 33kV triplex through a live substation, we pull, terminate and joint cable to DNO, ICP and ENA specification.
Cable pulling
Tension-controlled, drum-to-drum pulling using the right kit for the run — not whatever's left in the yard.
From tight duct runs through congested urban footways to open-field installations of 500m+, we plan every pull around the manufacturer's maximum tension and sidewall pressure. Rollers, swivels, cable lubricant and dynamometers — all in-house, all calibrated.
- Cable drum trailers for sizes up to 4m diameter
- Tension-controlled winches with live monitoring and logging
- Bellmouth, straight and bend rollers for every duct configuration
- Cable bonding, racking, cleating and identification
Cable jointing LV – 33kV
Certified jointers covering heat-shrink, cold-shrink and resin systems across polymeric (XLPE/EPR) and paper-insulated (PILC) cables.
- Straight joints, branch joints and cable terminations
- LV service joints, link boxes and distribution pillar terminations
- HV pot-ends, indoor and outdoor terminations
- PILC to polymeric transition joints
- All jointers authorised to DNO standards and kit calibrated
Every joint is photo-recorded at each stage and handed over with a full joint report. When things go wrong on jointing jobs, it's almost always because somebody skipped a step — we don't.
A typical pull & joint
Survey & plan
Route walk, duct proving, bend radius check, tension calcs. We'd rather spend a day planning than a week redoing.
Set up & protect
Traffic management, rollers set, drums positioned, protection mats down, live service awareness briefed.
Pull & monitor
Controlled winch, live tension data logged, comms at the drum and at the winch end throughout.
Joint & test
Joints built clean, then VLF / insulation tested and handed over with full documentation.
