The paper provides a comprehensive guide to pre-splicing practices, including Job Safety Analysis (JSA), equipment inspection, and weather considerations to ensure a secure working environment. Companies involved in electric power distribution use various types of optical cables for communication, monitoring, and control. OPGW. This paper, OPGW Grounding Techniques for Safe Fiber Splicing, outlines critical safety protocols and procedures for preparing Optical Ground Wire (OPGW) splicing on high-voltage transmission lines. Splicing OPGW (Optical Ground Wire) cables requires following several precise steps—establishing site safety, preparing the cable, accessing the fibers. In principle, the tension pay-off method is adopted. Suitable tension should be maintained to keep OPGW hanging in the air to avoid abrasion of the OPGW cable on the ground.
[pdf] The location and height of an OPGW joint box are critical to its performance and ease of maintenance. This placement not only provides uniformity along the line. OPGW is usually installed on the top of pole of the electric power aerial wire. Therefore, detailed conditions. Adverse factors such as wind vibration, hurricanes, ice thickness, unstable operation caused by temperature, and possible lightning strikes and short circuits should be considered.
