CITY OF DANVILLE CONSTRUCTION SPECIFICATION STR #38 – NEW DESIGN SECTION 01110 RIVERSIDE – NEW DESIGN 69kV TRANSMISSION LINE SUMMARY OF WORK SPECIFICATION No. 06455-000.00100 of 94

14

01110:1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION

01110:1.1 This specification covers the WORK required to construct the Str. #38-New Design section of the Riverside – New Design 69kV Transmission Line.

01110:1.2 This is a comprehensive specification intended for application to

electrical utilities construction. It shall be the responsibility of BIDDERS and subsequent CONTRACTOR to obtain a clear understanding of the applicability of the various sections shown herein relative to the WORK described in the following Summary and Reference Documents.

01110:2 SUMMARY OF WORK

01110:2.1 The WORK consists of rebuilding the Riverside (Str. #38) to New

Design 69kV Transmission Line. This line section is approximately 1.06 miles in length and consists of twenty-seven (27) structures. The structures are of steel pole design to accommodate a single circuit 69kV transmission circuit, one shield wire, one (1) three phase 34.5Kv circuit, one (1) three phase 12kV underbuilt distribution circuits, and a single CATV/Tele/FO ADSS cable. The 12kV circuit and neutral are to be transferred from the existing structures. The CATV/Tele/FO ADSS cable relocations or installations are not part of this scope and will be done by others at a later date. The conductor, shield wire, and ADSS will continue from Str. #62 to New Design, but the 34.5kV, 12kV, neutral, and other joint use will continue along Piney Forest Rd. The 34.5kV will span from Str. #61 to a new engineered steel pole (Dist #31) across Piney Forest Rd., where it will convert back to Hendrix cable.

01110:2.2 Where feasible, the old wood poles will remain or cutoff if occupied with

CATV/Tele/FO cable(s). CONTRACTOR will be required to transfer all existing single phase circuits, taps, and services. The majority of new steel pole structures are within close proximity to the existing wood pole structures locations (see plan and profile drawings).

01110:2.3 All outages are to be coordinated through the City of Danville.

02300:7.1 Removing Material

A. The CONTRACTOR shall excavate earth, rock, tree stumps, roots, pavement, foundations and other materials encountered. All excavated


35

materials shall be disposed of by the CONTRACTOR unless required for backfill material. Rock encountered during the excavation will be paid for as an additional unit. For the purpose of this bid, rock is defined as any dense material that slows the forward advance of digging to less than 3” per hour with standard carbide bits and requires the use of explosives, hydraulic or pneumatic breakers, or core barrels to remove. The Owner must be notified if rock is encountered. If explosives are required, the blaster must be knowledgeable, experienced and certified, and all the local, state, and federal laws must be followed including transporting and storing the explosive. Any rock encountered must be recorded on the appropriate form enclosed in this booklet. Rock will be calculated based on the designed hole diameter and depth for the specific pole being installed and not the actual hole diameter.

B. The center of the excavated hole shall be within ± 3” laterally of the

centerline of the specified location.

C. The excavated hole shall be vertically plumb.

D. For direct embedded poles: 1. The hole shall be excavated a minimum of two (2) feet deeper than

the setting depth to allow for a layer of crushed stone to be placed under the pole.

2. The hole diameter shall be as small as possible, but not less than a total eighteen (18) inches greater than the point to point diameter of the bottom of the pole shaft, in order to allow sufficient room for proper compaction and consolidation of backfill material.

E. For drilled pier foundations, if holes are drilled deeper than required, the

extra depth shall be backfilled with compacted No. 57 crushed stone before the steel reinforcing cage is set.

F. Excavations shall be maintained in a safe, clean and sound condition up to the time of placement of foundations. Whenever necessary, the CONTRACTOR shall re-excavate materials which have accumulated in previously prepared holes. Any muck or other unsatisfactory bearing material or the entrance of water into excavations previously prepared shall be removed and replaced with well compacted backfill at the CONTRACTOR’s expense. The CONTRACTOR shall effectively cover all holes when not attended to prevent hazardous conditions and ensure safety of people and livestock. The CONTRACTOR shall be responsible for all damage to persons, property, and livestock as a result of ineffective covering.


36

G. Generally, surplus excavated soil shall be uniformly spread at the site. The spreading of excess excavation material should not channel surface run-off water past the pole location. When holes are in the yards of property owners, the excess soil shall be removed from the site and disposed of. If excess excavation material conflicts with farming operations or endangers livestock, the material shall be disposed of at suitable locations selected by the CONTRACTOR.

02300:7.1 Unexpected Conditions – The CONTRACTOR shall notify the OWNER’s

Site Representative of unexpected subsurface conditions and discontinue affected work in area until notified to resume work.

02300:8 DEWATERING

02300:8.1 All work areas occurring below the groundwater level shall be drained, dewatered and maintained in stated condition while work is taking place at those elevations.

02300:8.2 Dewatering methods shall be those selected by the CONTRACTOR, subject

to approval by the OWNER.

02300:8.3 CONTRACTOR shall be responsible for maintaining dry excavations and sub grades continuously while work in each area is being done. Water level shall be reduced to sufficient depth to assure that bottom soils are not saturated or develop a quick condition.

02300:9 BACKFILL FOR DIRECT EMBEDDED POLES

02300:9.1 Backfill – Native Soil A. After the pole is placed in position and aligned properly, the excavation

shall be backfilled. Soil removed from the excavation can be used unless it contains large stones, muck, frozen material, roots, organic material, etc., or is rejected by the Line Inspector. The material used for backfill shall contain sufficient natural moisture or added water to ensure that the backfill can be adequately compacted.

B. When backfilling , one shovel shall be used in filling the hole, while one

or more pneumatically operated taps continuously tamp the earth until the hole is completely filled. Placement and tamping of the backfill shall be done evenly around the pole to ensure maximum compaction but not less than 95% Standard Proctor. Care shall be exercised during the placement and compaction of backfill material so that the pole or any attached grounding materials are not damaged by the operation.


37

C. At the completion of the backfilling operation, the backfill material shall

be banked and compacted around the pole to an elevation of six (6) inches above the natural ground line to prevent “ponding” of water around the pole after backfill settlement.

D. If soil cannot be used as backfill, then soil borrow obtained by the

CONTRACTOR and approved by the Line Inspector shall be used as backfill. Any borrow material shall conform to the requirements stated previously for the use of excavated soil for backfill material. If local soil is not suitable, crusher run or No. 57 washed, crushed stone shall be used.

02300:9.2 Backfill – Crushed Stone

A. Crushed stone shall be used for backfill when specified on the drawings,

when water is in the hole, or when specified by the OWNER. The crushed stone shall be No. 57 washed or an OWNER approved equivalent. Crusher run is not a substitute for crushed stone when water is present.

B. The crushed stone backfill shall be placed in even lifts with a maximum

depth of six (6) inches per lift. Stone backfill shall be compacted mechanically tamping each lift after placement in the excavation. The

maximum uniform density from the bottom of the excavation to the natural ground surface shall be attained.

C. At the completion of the backfilling operation, the backfill shall be banked

around the pole to an elevation of six (6) inches above the natural ground line.

02300:9.3 Backfill – Concrete

A. Concrete shall be used for backfill when specified on the drawings, or

when specified by the OWNER. B. Concrete backfill shall be 3000 PSI. It shall be placed in a manner which

will prevent segregation of the aggregate and cement. Care should be taken to avoid getting soil mixed with the concrete.

02586:1.1 The work includes the installation of multi-helix square shaft guy anchors.

02586:2 RELATED WORK SPECIFIED ELSEWHERE

02586:2.1 Section 16125 - Overhead Conductors PART 2 – PRODUCTS 02586:3 MATERIALS AND FABRICATION

02586:3.1 Guy anchors used shall be as indicated on the drawings. For anchor locations see Plan Profile Drawings.

02586:4 TOOLS

02586:4.1 The CONTRACTOR shall furnish the appropriate size and type of equipment for installing the screw anchors to the specified holding strengths in accordance with the manufacturer’s recommendations.

• Kelly bar adapter • Locking dog assembly • Drive wrench • Device or method acceptable for measuring installation torques.


02586:5.1 The default anchor for all guyed structures on this project is a power installed helix anchor. The capacity of these anchors is based upon their installation in soils of average quality, or better (e.g. loose to medium dense sands, firm to stiff clays, and silts). The OWNER’s Representative should be contacted for guidance when soil conditions not meeting this criteria are encountered (e.g. wet, swampy conditions or other soft soils). Rock anchors shall be used when solid rock is encountered at, or near, the ground surface, such that full embedment depth of a helix anchor cannot be obtained.

02586:5.2 Helix-type screw anchors shall be installed per the manufacturer’s

recommendations and the following general instructions.

A. Tighten the anchor rod to the helix with a wrench before

installation. B. The helix and rod must be installed directly in the line with the

down guy. C. Anchor should be installed such that it will advance into the ground

at a rate of about 3” per anchor rotation. Both rotational speed and down force should remain slow and steady for a smooth anchor installation with the torque motor setting at low speed and high torque.

D. Do not allow anchor to “churn” in place during installation.

“Churning” of the anchor essentially augers the hole and reduces anchor holding capacity. Adequate down force must be applied by the drill rig to prevent this from happening.

02586:5.3 Rock anchors shall be installed per the manufacturer’s recommendation

and the general instructions.

A. Drill a 2 3/8” diameter hole into the rock, for Chance R196L Rock Anchor.

B. Install a rock anchor and turn rod until the anchor is firmly

expanded against the side walls of the hole. C. Fill the anchor hole with grout where the hole is exposed to

weathering or moisture/water infiltration. 02586:6 TESTING

02586:6.1 Uplift testing shall be performed during anchor installation on screw anchors in order to verify conformance with design requirements. The CONTRACTOR shall provide all necessary labor and material to perform one (1) test per structure. See drawings for test loads and procedures.

A. During the curing period, soak the surfaces as often as necessary to

maintain thoroughly saturated condition. B. It is mandatory that water curing be continued as a case of emergency

during holidays and weekends. 03350:7 FINISHING FORMED SURFACES

03350:7.1 Finish all surfaces of formed concrete which will remain exposed in the finish work. Provide surfaces uniform for the intended texture; free from imperfect joints, fins, "honeycombing", air pockets or "bug" holes, or other such imperfections.

03350:7.2 Remove rough spots, stains and hardened mortar or grout from intended

smooth surfaces by rubbing such surfaces lightly with fine carborundum stone. Use liberal amounts of water and rub sufficiently to remove defects with changing texture of concrete.

03350:7.3 If intended smooth surfaces are not of uniform texture, treat as follows:

A. Prepare a mix consisting of one part Portland cement, 1-1/2 parts fine

sand, and sufficient water to produce a grout of the consistency of thick paint.

B. Wet surface to be treated and apply grout uniformly with a brush,

completely filling air holes. Immediately float, scouring the surface vigorously. Allow cement grout to partially set for an hour or two depending on weather.

C. When grout has sufficiently hardened so it can be scraped from

surface with the edge of a steel trowel without removing grout from small air holes, cut-off all that can be removed with a trowel, allow surface to dry thoroughly, then rub vigorously with burlap to completely remove surplus.

D. Further finish exposed intended smooth surfaces, if necessary, by

means of honing with a carborundum stone to uniform surfaces as directed by OWNER.

E. Complete entire operation of any area the day it is started.


69

F. Do not use dry cement sacking. 03350:8 FINISHING AND CURING FLAT WORK

03350:8.1 Finishing:

A. After the concrete has been placed, consolidated, struck off, and leveled, the concrete shall not be worked further until ready for floating.

1. Float and trowel finish as soon as possible in accordance with requirements of ACI 301.

2. Provide slopes as indicated on Drawings, or as directed by OWNER.

B. Provide fog-spray equipment for use during finishing to maintain

adequate surface moisture and reduce plastic shrinkage. 1. Immediately after fresh concrete has been brought to a flat

surface, a shiny film of moisture will appear on top. As soon as the shiny surface disappears, it must be restored and maintained until troweling, by providing a light film of moisture with an atomizing type fog-sprayer.

2. Use frequent light applications of moisture rather than excessive wetting. Temperature, humidity and wind conditions will dictate the amount of spray required for proper control.

C. If the wire and associated materials are damaged due to

CONTRACTOR’s mishandling, faulty equipment, or negligence, the CONTRACTOR shall replace the damaged sections, including furnishing of necessary materials, in a manner satisfactory to the OWNER and at no additional cost to the OWNER.


75

D. All sections of wire that are damaged by the application of grips shall be replaced.

16125:3.7 Waste

A. The CONTRACTOR shall conduct his stringing operation to keep

waste to a minimum. Lengths of conductor shorter than 500 feet shall be considered as scrap and shall not be spliced into the line without specific approval of the OWNER’s Engineer. Short deadend spans and jumpers shall be cut from these scrap lengths whenever possible. All unused scrap pieces shall be wound in coils and returned to the storage yard. Pieces of conductor over 500 feet long shall be consolidated on as few reels as possible, with temporary splices, on reels furnished by the OWNER. Each reel shall be clearly marked with the conductor type and size, length and position of each piece, and the empty weight of the reel. The CONTRACTOR shall transport all returnable reels to the City of Danville’s stock yard on Monument Street and place them in a designated area for return to the manufacturer.

16125:3.8 Protection of Work

A. The CONTRACTOR shall protect all work until final acceptance by the OWNER, including taking necessary precautions to leave all incomplete work in a safe and secure manner when left overnight or during periods of inactivity.

16125:3.9 Temporary Grounding

A. During the wire work, the CONTRACTOR shall take all necessary steps to insure proper temporary grounding of the structures, cables, and equipment. All applicable federal, state, and local safety regulations shall be kept to insure that they are all removed and the line can be safely energized at the end of the construction period.

16125:3.10 Guard Structures

A. Guard structures shall be furnished and installed by the

CONTRACTOR, where required, to prevent the conductor or overhead ground wire being pulled from coming into contact with or interrupting the use of existing overhead electric supply lines, communication lines, road, highways, and railroads crossed by the transmission line.


76

B. Where the new conductors are to be pulled in across and above existing energized lines, erect guard structures where indicated and elsewhere as required. In addition, place plastic or rubber insulating shields over the "exposed" energized conductors.

C. If not part of the right-of-way agreements previously executed,

permission to install guard structures of private property or public highway right-of-way shall be obtained by the CONTRACTOR.

D. Size, location, design, strength, excavation for and construction and

removal of guard structures shall be the CONTRACTOR’s responsibility. All guard structures shall be constructed with timber or wood pole crossarms unless other construction is required and approved by the OWNER. At roadways guard structures will be set, lighted, etc., as required by the roadway authority. In all cases where the guard structures are set within the shoulders and/or median area of roadways, the structures shall be marked with flashers and have warning signs set out along the roadway to warn motorists as a safety precaution.

E. After completion of all wire work, the CONTRACTOR shall remove

the guard structures, fill and compact all pole holes, and restore the right-of-way to its original condition.

16125:3.11 Joints and Splices

A. Use of wire reels shall be carefully planned to minimize the number of full tension splices. No splices shall be permitted in spans over rivers, spans crossing interstate highways, main lines of railroads, and major communication and power lines. In other spans only one splice per span will be permitted on each wire and this splice shall be no closer than 50 feet to any structure without approval from the OWNER.

B. Splices when required shall be compression type, and made in accordance with the fitting manufacturer’s recommendations in the presence of the OWNER’s Representative.

C. Make all connections not requiring a full tension joint by means of aluminum compression connector. Jumper loops and jumper loop splices shall be designed and rated to assure conductivity equal or greater than that of the continuous wire.


77

D. Install a repair sleeve where the condition of the conductor warrants its use and only with the approval of the OWNER.

E. Make up tension splices for the conductor and shield wire within the spans in which they occur. Do not pull through the sheaves or blocks.

F. Unless otherwise instructed by the OWNER, make up tension splices on the ground before conductor is pulled and sagged.

G. Any loose strands shall be worked down to the wire ends and then fastened at intervals with banks of tape. The ends of the wire strands shall be examined for defects; defects shall be brought to the attention of the OWNER.

H. Install splicing sleeve so that the maximum length of conductor shall be entirely within the sleeve to obtain maximum holding power of the joint.

I. The lengths of wire ends to be inserted in the splicing sleeve of

deadend fitting shall be cleaned with a stainless steel wire brush, emery cloth such as wet or dry Fabricut manufactured by Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing or equal means, to obtain perfectly clean and bright surfaces.

J. At the completion of pressing operations, die marks and burrs shall

be sanded smooth and all wrapping, binding and excess grease and compound shall be removed. The strands of the wires shall be snugly seated when the splice or deadend is complete.

K. The CONTRACTOR shall clean the splicing or deadending sites of

all scrap and debris and dispose of same in suitable location away from the line.

L. Slight bends in the sleeve of fitting may be removed by hammering,

using a hard wood block to protect the fitting from the direct blows of the hammer.

16125:3.12 Stringing

A. It is the CONTRACTOR’s responsibility to make the proper determination as to which structures can have unbalanced tensions. It shall be the CONTRACTOR’s responsibility to install all structural members in the structures before subjecting structures to conductor


78

loads and to reinforce all structures which require such reinforcing prior to application of wire stringing loads.

B. The CONTRACTOR shall pull each conductor and the shield wire

supported at each pole by an aerial stringing block or sheave.

C. Pulling wires along or through wet ground, mud, water, slurry ponds, etc., where foreign material will adhere or enter the interstices of the wire shall not be permitted.

D. Wire tension during stringing shall be high enough to ensure that the

wire does not drag across the ground, underbrush, trees, towers, fences, guard structures, or any other surface other than the stringing sheaves. A stringing tension of not less than 50% nor more than 80% of the initial sagging tension should be used.

E. The conductors shall be kept from touching ground, water, or above

ground objects including guard structures. Each instance of cable contact with such foreign objects will require CONTRACTOR to suspend further pulling operations so that a thorough inspection of contact area can be made by the OWNER.

F. No more than two reels of wire may be pulled at a time. Full tension

compression splices shall not be pulled through the stringing blocks.

G. No wire shall be pulled before or during adverse weather conditions, as determined by the OWNER, so as to avoid delays in sagging and clipping operations and to avoid damage to conductors in the sheaves due to high wind loadings. If all three phases are strung in one pull, the middle phase shall lead the other phases by 100 feet.

H. The utmost care shall be exercised during the wire stringing

operation to avoid damage to conductor or overhead ground wire strands. CONTRACTOR’s personnel shall be stationed along the line in sufficient number as wire is being strung to inspect for problems or damage to wires. If damage is found or personnel safety is compromised, the stringing shall be stopped.

I. The CONTRACTOR shall continuously inspect the wire as it leaves

the reels. If the wire has an accumulation of dirt, oil, grease or any other foreign substance, such substance shall be removed as the wire leaves the reels during the stringing operation by a method approved by the OWNER.


79

J. Use a sufficient number of hand-lines and other precautionary measures with lineman stationed on poles to prevent excessive whipping of the new conductors and to carry same free and clear of existing live lines or other obstructions. Under no circumstances shall the conductor or pulling lines be allowed to sag down into the street or road crossing where pedestrians or vehicular traffic would be endangered or the conductors damaged by such traffic. No conductor or guy strand shall be rolled off the reel and dragged into position along the ground or pavement.

K. Complete each section of the line between two guyed dead-ends before the conductor is sagged. Snubbing of conductors or tying off the conductors shall be allowed only when approved come-alongs are used. The size and method of application of the come-alongs shall be in accord with the recommendations of the manufacturer of the conductors.

L. Ends of conductors used for dead-ending that have been twisted and

snubbed for pulling eye attachment or come-alongs shall be clipped and wasted. Any section of the conductor with noticeable abrasion, kinking or other damage received during the stringing and pulling-in operations, shall be cut and replaced with a perfect section and spliced in an approved manner before the corresponding section length is cut for permanent dead-ending. In no case shall there be multiple splices of a single conductor in the same span or in adjacent spans.

M. Conductors and shield wires shall be tensioned to initial sag within

24 hours of being pulled through the stringing blocks. Conditions involving high pulling tensions (strong winds, long crossing spans, etc.) may require sagging within a shorter time frame.

N. Determine the conductor temperature at the time of stringing by a certified sagging thermometer, furnished and maintained on the job during the sagging operations. The sagging thermometer should be installed at or near the conductor before actual sagging operation to allow temperature stabilization and far enough above ground to avoid ground heat radiation effects.

16125:3.13 Sagging

A. Do all sagging by means of suitable sag blocks and in no case shall any conductor be resting on an arm or other attachment during the sagging operation.


80

B. If wires are sagged using the “wire tension” method, use a tension

indicator or dynamometer in pulling up all conductors to the specified sag and tension. This tension indicator shall be used primarily to avoid the possibility of over-stressing the conductor during the pulling-up operation. The maximum tension during this operation shall not exceed initial tension allowable for the conductor at the air temperature specified.

C. The OWNER will furnish CONTRACTOR with sag-tension data for

the various wire sizes and spans covered by Specifications for this job. Wires shall be sagged to the proper tensions in accordance with the initial stringing sag and tension tables provided. Sags shall be checked by sighting with target and transit as indicated in the IEEE Guide.

D. The transit shall have suitable attachment for mounting on towers or

steel poles. Targets shall be clearly legible. For sagging up to and including five (5) spans, the sagger shall make at least one (1) transit set-up with the sagger located in one (1) of the longer spans near the far end away from the pulling end. For sagging pulls of more than five (5) spans, the sagger shall make no less than two (2) transit set-ups with the first set-up located in one (1) of the longer spans near the far end away from the pulling end and the second set-up located in one (1) of the longer spans near the pulling end. As far as practicable sags shall be checked in level spans longer than the ruling span.

E. Suitable thermometers shall be provided by the CONTRACTOR.

These thermometers shall be inserted in a basket made from conductor with a sufficient number of center strands removed to allow entry of thermometer.

F. The thermometer shall be suspended from the structure near the

sagger’s position, at least one-half (1/2) hour before sagging so that accurate readings may be made at the time of sagging. The method of using the thermometers shall be approved by the OWNER. Sagging operations shall not be carried on when, in opinion of the OWNER, wind prevents satisfactory sagging. Before pulling cable to sag, precautions shall be taken to prevent this operation from affecting the sag in adjacent, previously sagged sections.

G. The CONTRACTOR shall select the length of each pull and the sag

span, subject to the review and approval of the OWNER. The


81

CONTRACTOR’s sagging method must result in uniform tensions throughout the sag and the allowable sag tolerances must not be exceeded. Re-sagging of incorrectly sagged sections of line shall be at the CONTRACTOR’s expense. The CONTRACTOR shall budget his time so that a reel of wire is sagged within 48 hours after the start of the stringing operation.

H. Required accuracy in sagging shall be such that with wires bolted or

pressed in final position the actual sag shall not deviate from the computed sag by more than (2) conductor diameters low and (0)

conductor diameters high.

I. Conductors and shield wires shall not be re-sagged after initial tensioning operation, unless directed by OWNER

16125:3.14 Clipping-in

A. Clipping-in of conductor and shield wire shall be accomplished as

soon as practical, no longer than 72 hours after stringing operation or 48 hours after being pulled to initial sag, and before wires are damaged by abrasion and flattening or breaking of strands due to vibration in the stringing sheaves. The CONTRACTOR shall be required to replace damaged wires or repair such at his own expense.

B. Wires shall be lifted from the sheaves using standard suspension

clamps or plate hooks 8 inches larger to provide adequate support for the wires without damaging individual strands or kinking the wire.

C. After conductors have been permanently sagged and dead-ended, and

the section length checked for uniformly distributed sag, position conductors in the suspension clamps. Tighten and verify that the clamps are securely drawn up.

D. U-bolts on suspension clamps and strain dead-end clamps shall be evenly torqued to the manufacturers recommended values. Keeper plates shall be in place and properly seated. Conductor strands within the area of the fitting shall be clean. The acceptable cleaning method is use of a steel brush, cotton rags, and solvents.

16125:3.15 Jumpers

A. Jumpers shall be installed as shown on the drawings. Compression jumper terminals shall be used with compression deadends and compression jumper connectors shall be used with strain clamps. The


82

installation of these items shall be included in the conductor and shield wire installation costs. All shall be installed in accordance with the manufacturers’ recommendations.

B. Install jumpers of the same size as the main conductor with

clearances as indicated.

C. Excess length of conductor from the wire stringing operation should be used to make up the jumper loops.

D. Jumper loops, when completed, shall present a smooth uniformly

curving appearance without sharp bends or “cork screws”. 16125:3.16 Final Adjustments

A. The CONTRACTOR shall make any necessary adjustments in the wires or clamps at any time during the construction period to insure that the wire is at the proper tension, sags are within tolerance, and overhead ground wire assemblies hang plumb, at no additional cost to the OWNER.

16125:3.17 Fiber Optic Ground Wire

A. All OPGW wire work shall be done in accordance with the manufacturer’s recommendation and the “Guide to Installation of Overhead Transmission Line Conductors”, IEEE 524, shall be used as reference.

B. The Fiber Optic Overhead Ground Wire (OPGW) shall be strung

using the controlled tension method of installation.

C. The stringing blocks used for OPGW shall be neoprene lined and have a minimum diameter of no less than 40 times the OPGW diameter. This minimum diameter is recommended to help prevent the deformation of the aluminum pipe that protects the optical fibers. Smaller diameter blocks can be used at tangent structures, depending on factors such as string tensions and angle through the block.

D. The following are other recommendations to help prevent damage to

the OPGW:

Minimum Bull Wheel Diameter: 70 times the OPGW diameter


83

Pull Speed: 130 to 260 feet/minute

Maximum Stringing Tension: Limit 20% of rated breaking strength

Maximum Number of Spans Typically 30-40

in Stringing Section

Permanent Bending Radius 15 x D (no tension) Maximum Distance from Puller 3:1 Ratio

and Tensioner to Stringing Block

E. An Anti-Torsionsal Device shall be installed between the OPGW and the pulling line. This is to prevent the OPGW from twisting while being pulled. The anti-torsional device attaches to the OPGW with a Kellum type grip.

E. If vibration dampers are required for the span, they should be

installed immediately after clip-in. Damper may not be required at every structure, see plan profile for location.

I. The OWNER will furnish CONTRACTOR with OPGW sag-tension data for the various spans.
