LV · 11kV · 33kV

Cable pulling and jointing, end to end.

Whether it's a single LV service feeding a new build or a run of 33kV triplex through a live substation, we pull, terminate and joint cable to DNO, ICP and ENA specification.

Cable pulling

Tension-controlled, drum-to-drum pulling using the right kit for the run — not whatever's left in the yard.

From tight duct runs through congested urban footways to open-field installations of 500m+, we plan every pull around the manufacturer's maximum tension and sidewall pressure. Rollers, swivels, cable lubricant and dynamometers — all in-house, all calibrated.

  • Cable drum trailers for sizes up to 4m diameter
  • Tension-controlled winches with live monitoring and logging
  • Bellmouth, straight and bend rollers for every duct configuration
  • Cable bonding, racking, cleating and identification

Cable jointing LV – 33kV

Certified jointers covering heat-shrink, cold-shrink and resin systems across polymeric (XLPE/EPR) and paper-insulated (PILC) cables.

  • Straight joints, branch joints and cable terminations
  • LV service joints, link boxes and distribution pillar terminations
  • HV pot-ends, indoor and outdoor terminations
  • PILC to polymeric transition joints
  • All jointers authorised to DNO standards and kit calibrated

Every joint is photo-recorded at each stage and handed over with a full joint report. When things go wrong on jointing jobs, it's almost always because somebody skipped a step — we don't.

How we work

A typical pull & joint

1

Survey & plan

Route walk, duct proving, bend radius check, tension calcs. We'd rather spend a day planning than a week redoing.

2

Set up & protect

Traffic management, rollers set, drums positioned, protection mats down, live service awareness briefed.

3

Pull & monitor

Controlled winch, live tension data logged, comms at the drum and at the winch end throughout.

4

Joint & test

Joints built clean, then VLF / insulation tested and handed over with full documentation.
