When multiple armoured cables share a trench, the spacing between them — the cable burial spread — directly determines two things: the current-carrying capacity of each circuit, and the cost of excavation. Pack them too tight and mutual heating derates the cables, forcing you to oversize. The Fiber Optic Association, Inc. FO-VC2 JOINT USE - VERICAL MIDSPAN CLEARANCES 48. FO-RI JOINT USE RISER. The methods used to place fiber optic cables in ducts are similar to those used to place copper cable. Optical cable is a high capacity transport medium that is sensitive to excessive pulling force, tight bends, and crushing forces, therefore, proper care must be taken during the installation. 1.
