Abstract :
MOST electrical engineers are aware of the vulnerability of above grade cables to fire and other hazards that could exist, and they are concerned about methods of protecting these cables from such dangers. The intent of underground methods is to provide protection for long cable runs from possible hazards created by nearby units. Other methods can be used within segments of an operating unit where the cables come above grade.
