When routing underground optical cables into substations, IEEE 525 recommends using dedicated raceways or conduits to protect the cable from mechanical damage and environmental exposure. The entry point should be designed to:
IEEE 525 emphasizes electrical and mechanical protection for optical cables:
Key installation practices include:
IEEE 525 also recommends:
