Vertical Cable Runs on Wooden Poles

Any cables which run vertically on the pole must be fixed at a minimum of 450mm intervals and must not impede access to the climbing steps.

Standard cable cleats tend to get lifted off the pole by safety belts and ladders rubbing against them, which can lead to insecure/loose cables. Therefore the CP must fix cables using a 16mm aluminium strip (Available in three length options - 80mm, 120mm and 180mm)

The CP must secure the strip using 38mm long galvanised bonding nails along with galvanised steel flat washers with a 6.5mm diameter centre hole.

Protection of cables are solely the responsibility of the CP but it is recommended to cover cables up to 2.3 metres minimum from the ground by suitable capping.

Where a CP's cable shares the same duct space or run together with Openreach cable, the capping requirement is mandatory. If the existing capping is not large enough to accommodate the extra CP cable, the CP may replace the capping with a larger Openreach approved capping. Any cables running between the upper and lower envelopes of spaces must be suitably managed and in a manner agreed in writing in advance with the Openreach SA. This is to avoid risk to climbers.
