METHODS OF ADSS OPTICAL CABLE INSTALLATION

Methods for grounding optical cable sheath

Methods for grounding optical cable sheath

Grounding the shield at only one end of the cable is the long-established best practice. This Applications Engineering Note (AE Note) discusses conventional bonding and grounding practices for conductive fiber optic cable and hardware installations within the scope of the National Electrical Code (NEC). Grounding is classified into three different types: protective grounding, operational grounding, and lightning grounding. Fiber optic cable transmits data as light through glass or plastic strands, which means the fiber core itself carries no electrical current and requires no grounding. Interlocking armor is an aluminum armor that is helically wrapped around the cable and found in indoor and indoor/outdoor cables.

Uganda ADSS Optical Cable ADSS

Uganda ADSS Optical Cable ADSS

All-dielectric self-supporting (ADSS) cable is a type of optical fiber cable that is strong enough to support itself between structures without using conductive metal elements. Fittings used with ADSS cable may be tension type, used at dead-ends where the cable terminates or changes direction, or may be suspension type, only holding the weight of a span with tension transmitted through th. Cables must be designed for the worst-case combinations of temperature, ice load, and wind.

Structure of ADSS optical cable

Structure of ADSS optical cable

Cables must be designed for the worst-case combinations of temperature, ice load, and wind. On long spans where utilities already experience caused by sustained high wind, dampers may need to be installed on ADSS cable also. ADSS cables are manufactured in two primary structural designs— central tube and layered twist —each optimized for specific span lengths, fiber counts, and environmental conditions. Designed specifically for deployment alongside power lines and utility poles, ADSS. All-dielectric self-supporting (ADSS) cable is a type of optical fiber cable that is strong enough to support itself between structures without using conductive metal elements.
