OSP Civil Works Guide-FOA
The armouring of optical fibre cables shall be lugged and bonded to an earth bar using a soft multi-stranded 6mm2 green / yellow
This guide explains the essential stages of underground fiber optic cable installation, including route design, trenching methods, cable protection strategies, and testing procedures to help ensure long-term performance and minimal maintenance issues. Underground cables are pulled in conduit that is buried underground, usually 1-1. 2 meters (3-4 feet) deep to reduce the likelihood of accidentally being dug up.
