Do you carry out the civil works as well?

Yes — our teams handle the complete scope from trench excavation through to road reinstatement and as-built records.

Can you install cables under roads or rivers without trenching?

Yes — we have horizontal directional drilling capability for under-road and under-obstacle crossings without surface disruption.

What testing do you carry out on HV cables after installation?

We carry out DC or VLF withstand tests, insulation resistance measurement and, where required, partial discharge testing to IEC 60229 standards.

Cable Laying

Professional cable installation for transmission and Distribution networks.

Cable installation is a precision activity — poorly pulled, terminated or jointed cables are a leading cause of network failures. RS brings trained cable crews, correct equipment and rigorous quality checks to every cable installation.

Key Benefits

Correct cable sizing eliminates thermal overloading

Proper pulling technique prevents sheath and insulation damage

Certified jointing and termination reduces fault risk

Drum testing and after-laying tests verify cable integrity

As-built cable records support future maintenance

HV, MV and LV capability in a single crew

Our Process

Cable Route Survey

Route selection, underground service identification and trench depth assessment.

Duct & Trench Works

Trench excavation, duct laying, sand bedding and reinstatement to utility standards.

Cable Drum Testing

Insulation resistance and high-potential testing of cable drums before installation.

Cable Pulling

Controlled cable pulling using appropriate equipment with pulling tension monitoring.

Jointing & Termination

Heat-shrink or cold-applied joints and terminations by certified jointers.

After-Laying Tests

HV pressure testing, insulation resistance verification and partial discharge testing for HV cables.

Features Included

LV, MV (11 kV/33 kV) and HV (132 kV) cable capability

Direct burial and ducted cable installation

Horizontal directional drilling (HDD) capability

Factory-trained cable jointers

Cable drum testing equipment on-site

After-laying HV test equipment

GPS cable route mapping

Full installation and test records
