B) DURING INSTALLATION CHECKS

The containment installation works for the FAS are approved prior to the
commencement of the installation & pulling of the FAS Device Cables.
No interference with the cables of the LV Electrical equipment I unit is
encountered while routing the FAS Cables.
FAS Cables are cut to the required lengths as decided by the route run.
The splicing of the cables, if applicable, must be done only with the prior
approval of the owner's representative and is done only at the building block units
and not at the other places.
The Cable shields are physically and electrically continuous by proper jointing at
the splice locations, if the splices are pennitted by the owner . representative.
Under no circumstances, the joints between the two field devices are allowed.
UTP CAT 6A Copper Data Cables for the back bone transmission over the
Ethernet VLAN are routed as per the latest approved shop drawings ( as part of the
SCS Cabling).
All the cable fittings and the connectors are of correct types and proper fit for the
purpose.
10
11
The recommended bending radius and the cable pulling tension are maintained as
per the manufacturer recommendations for the different types of cables.
The supports of the cables including cable clips & ties are adequate & at the
required spacing as per the specifications.
FAS Cables are properly identified at the F ACPs & MFACPs prior to their
tenninations ..
12
The cable tenninations are executed as per the manufacturer recommendations.
13
Earthing cables are tenninated with proper sleeves for all the field devices in the
appropriate tenninals to avoid the undesirable earth fault in the loops.
14
EMT Conduits & sleeves are installed directly on the ceiling surfaces for the
room penetrations & the device drop down cable locations.
15
Wherever gypsum boards are installed for the wall panels, EMT Conduits are
used in those areas to route the FAS Cables.
