Power cables should be installed by trained personnel in accordance with good engineering practices, recognized codes of practice, statutory local requirements, IEE wiring regulations and where relevant, in accordance with any specific instructions issued by the company.
Power cables are often supplied in heavy cable drums and handling these drums can constitute a safety hazard. In particular, dangers may arise during the removal of steel binding straps and during the removal of retaining battens and timbers which may expose projecting nails.
