Prior to delivery of any cable, the Contractor shall establish that its dielectric is sound, all cores are correct and continuous from end to end and that all cables are free of any visible defects. Any cost arising due to defects on cables, including installed cables, prior to hand over will be for the Contractors account. The Contractor shall ensure that core colours / numbers are maintained throughout the installation to avoid confusion, and that colour coding conforms to the drawing requirements. Cable ends shall be sealed or capped immediately after cutting. This applies for the cable to be used as well as that remaining on the drum. Joints in cables are prohibited unless the route lengths exceed the maximum drum lengths manufactured. In this eventuality, approved proprietary types of junction boxes shall be used. Jointing will need approval from the COW.
9.1
Cable Routes
The cable routes indicated on the drawings are indicative only and final routes shall be determined on site by the Contractor with approval from the COW. All cables shall be grouped and run according to the arrangements as shown on the project drawings. No installation of cables should commence without the prior approval of the COW in order to prevent the unnecessary crossing of cables, and to promote carefully planned routes. Should selected routes be found to be unsuitable because of prospective obstructions, spillage of solids or liquids, or excessive temperatures, prior approval for deviations shall be obtained from the COW. No cables shall be double-banked on racks, without the approval of the COW. Cables are to be installed in a planned manner to enable later additions and replacements. No cable shall be buried directly in the ground. Where instrumentation signal cables and power cables run on parallel routes greater than 5 meters, they shall be separated by a minimum distance of 300mm or a solid separation plate on the same rack.

Cables shall enter an enclosure from below only, and shall be formed to relieve stress on the cable end. Exception to this shall be approved by the Engineer. Wiring shall be installed neatly in trunking, flexible conduit or in wire looms. Where this is not possible or practical, the cable loom shall be strapped together using plastic cable straps available for this purpose. Tightening of harness saddles or straps must not result in: Excessive pressure being exerted, which would result in a reduction of the conductor insulation diameter, or Wear on the insulation, or Excessive tension.
Unclamped leads shall be free of tension between points of connections.
9.3
Support and Strapping

Armoured cables shall be secured to racks or angle-iron supports by stainless steel cable ties with a ball locking mechanism that can operate in temperature range of -80C to 539C (AISS 316 or 304). The span of strapping shall be such as to prevent sagging of cables. Un-armoured cables shall be secured to racks or angle-iron supports by cable ties of Polyamide 6.6. The cable ties shall be halogen free and UV resistant, constructed with buckles and design for use in outdoor areas subject to direct sunlight. The span of strapping shall be such as to prevent sagging of cables and in any event should not exceed 300mm. In areas not subject to direct sunlight such as electrical panels / boxes and general indoor installations, un-armoured cables shall be secured to racks or angle-iron supports by cable ties which shall be self-extinguishing, class V2 according to UL-94, constructed with buckles.
Cables running horizontally on racks mounted edgewise must be secured to the racks at 300mm intervals, to prevent sagging of cables. Cables laid flat in racks parallel with or slightly inclined to the ground or floor surfaces need not
AA REQ 673013
be secured to the racks more often than is necessary to prevent the cables from walking as a consequence of expansion, contraction or vibration. Installation of open-ended, capped conduit may be used providing no other means of secondary cable support is possible.
9.4
Cable Glanding
Cables shall be made off in situ and not made off and then moved into position. At the soonest practical opportunity before the commencement of terminating, the Contractor shall establish that the cables are sound (by testing insulation resistance and for the presence of moisture in the dielectric) and also that all cables are correct and continuous from end to end. All cables entering junction boxes or control panels shall be stripped to the inner sleeve only, where the end will be made off with transparent heat shrink sleeving for 20mm. Cable glands shall be as follows: PVC insulated cables un-armoured. ENVIRO, fixed nipple compression gland, complete with retaining washer and neoprene compression bush.
PVC insulated cables - armoured. ENVIRO armoured, adjustable, mechanical cable gland.
The Contractor shall also include for the drilling of any gland holes required in gland plates and the supply of transparent heat shrink, strapping or other materials necessary to complete the termination. Special care shall be taken by the Contractor when drilling holes in the gland plates for cables to ensure maximum use of space on the area of the gland plate and not to have any unused holes which will affect the I.P. rating of the enclosures. All un-used gland holes shall be sealed off with proper Pratley Enviro gland stoppers which come with all the necessary accessories such as seals and nuts.
9.5
Instrument Copper Cable

Terminations shall be made in a professional manner, with particular attention to the cleanliness of tools, materials and working site. A proprietary type of wire stripper must always be used. The stripping tool must be checked regularly and is subject to inspection by the COW. When the type of insulation is suitable, a hot wire stripper is recommended. No stranded conductors shall be fitted if any one strand has been damaged or broken. At terminations, cables shall be secured and connected in such a manner as to prevent undue
Page 15 of 98
AA REQ 673013
mechanical stress on glands conductors or terminals. Spare cable cores are to be terminated such that the stripped length of the spare cores exceeds the stripped length of the longest used core. The contractor shall refer to the related hook-up drawings for the stripping of the cable inner sleeves and the type, colour and size of all the heat shrink to be used. Leads shall not be twisted together unless this is desirable for a design reason, i.e. to counter inductive effects. When stripping insulation from conductors, wires strands must not be nicked or cut. The insulation of a conductor shall not be stripped back further than or less than necessary to affect a secure joint. Wiring shall be arranged such that not more than two conductors are connected to one side of each terminal, with the understanding that the double up of conductors into one terminal should be avoided by using appropriate manufactured links. All conductors shall be terminated in an insulated double crimped lug of the appropriate type and size, using the proper crimping tool as recommended by the manufacturer of the termination. All crimping tools shall be of the ratchet type. Bare wire terminations will not be accepted. Pin lugs with attached 15mm sleeves for wire marking are to be used with terminal blocks in a strip format. Spade lugs with attached 23mm sleeves for wire marking will be used when terminating under a screw head. Where the space is limited inside any termination point, the contractor shall provide for the same type of lugs, but without sleeves attached to the lug. It shall be the Contractor's responsibility to ensure that lugs, tools and dies are of the correct size for the conductors. Enlarging of holes in lugs is strictly forbidden. The Contractor shall include for the supply and fitting of appropriate lugs and glands to all instruments (existing and new) and associated equipment. All instruments, control panels, switchboards and junction boxes etc. shall be wired in accordance with the project instrumentation wiring diagrams or hook up and shall be well planned and neatly arranged in the best possible manner. Cable screens shall be covered with transparent heat shrink sleeving and earthed where required by drawings. Unearthed screen wires are to be tied back. Under no circumstances may they be cut back. As a minimum the terminal block & cable connector installation specification will be adhered to.

All field instruments (new and existing) shall terminate in a locally mounted approved termination box with a short length (1 to 2 meters) of flexible cable strapped to a proper
Page 16 of 98
AA REQ 673013
supported angle iron secondary runner. The termination box can be a multiple-way unit to accommodate more than one associated circuit. No top entries are to be used. A suitably sized terminal strip shall be fitted inside the box. If access to a termination box is limited, the termination box must be mounted in such a manner so as to provide easy access. No termination box shall be fitted more than 5 meters away from the instrument without the prior approval of the COW. The contractor shall ensure that termination boxes for instruments with cast in fly leads shall suit the distance between the termination box and the instrument. Termination boxes are to be provided according to the relevant hook-up drawing. Where an instrument only provides for one gland entry, but with more than one cable or wire running to the instrument, flexible conduit must be used between the termination box and the instrument. Appropriate glands and seals must be used ensuring that the IP 65 rating is maintained.

All instrument cables shall be tested for continuity and insulation resistance according to the following: Screen to screen Core to screen Core to core 250VDC 500VDC 500VDC
The minimum acceptable value of insulation resistance measured line to line or line to ground shall be infinity. Communication and field bus cables are to be tested in accordance with the instrument supplier's specification. Special attention shall be given to testing the shielding of cables and wires to ensure continuity of shield(s) and earthing. It is most important that all cable checks be performed with the instruments disconnected from the cable. The earthing location shall be exactly as shown on the relevant manufacturer's drawing. For detailed information refer to ATDP SS 20, Commissioning Procedure.
14.2
Inspection C2
The COW shall inspect and approve all instrumentation installations. All instrumentation installations, including equipment fabricated on site or in the workshop of the Contractor is subject to inspection and tests that shall be carried out in the presence of the Engineer or COW. Defective items shall be re-inspected and re-tested after rectification. The contractor shall submit an official Request for Inspection (RFI) at least 48 hours in advance to the COW. The contractor shall include all the relative loop packages with the RFI. The client will reject an incomplete RFI package. RFI's shall consist of small, manageable loop quantities, in order to prevent undesirable practices being continued should a fault be found. All rework costs are for the contractors account. All monitoring/control equipment comprising the installation, including the wiring, housing and other details, shall be inspected to ensure that it conforms to the drawings, diagrams and other information supplied. The checks shall include for all terminations and connections in accordance with the loop diagrams.
All equipment shall be inspected to ensure that it is properly identified. The contractor shall be solely responsible for ensuring that the correct instrument is installed in its location.
AA REQ 673013
Only the Engineer and the COW will have the authority to sign any acceptance or hand over certificates. All punch list items shall be completed within a reasonable period of time and resubmitted to the COW for inspection and acceptance. At the completion of each package, the Contractor shall provide acceptance certificates for signature by the COW. For detailed information refer to ATDP SS 20, Commissioning Procedure
14.3
Commissioning C3
The Contractor shall provide particulars of the daily rates for superintendent, supervisor, foreman, charge hand and artisan grades, as it is envisaged that assistance from such staff will be required as extras to the Contract, particularly during the cold and hot commissioning of the plant. No equipment shall be commissioned until it has been authorised by the Engineer and COW who, thereupon, will become responsible for the safety of the affected equipment and all personnel having access thereto. All field equipment shall be checked in respect of electrical and mechanical operation of all moving parts, tightness of connections etc. Check and set power supply voltages and air supply pressure. Configure, check and calibrate all analogue signals for correct operating range and span. Perform functional check of loops by simulating plant conditions where possible. MCC control circuits shall be tested with live control bus-wires for correct operation of control push-buttons, interlocks, trip switches, pre-start alarms, contactors retaining circuits, indicators, etc. Precaution shall be taken to ensure that the main bus bars are not energised during the testing operations. Check of pneumatic tubing for tightness of joints, including leak test (Bubble test) For detailed information refer to ATD P SS 20, Commissioning Procedure.
14.4
Certificates
The results of all calibrations, tests and reservations are to be recorded on an appropriate form, approved by the COW, which shall be meaningfully filled in.
All deviations of the installation shall be marked up on the supplied documentation to accurately reflect the as-built status of the plant on completion. The above information shall be made available to the Engineer when requested and shall be
AA REQ 673013
placed into the loop packs.
14.5
Loop Packages
A sample loop handover package, per loop type, shall be submitted to the Engineer for approval and shall consist of the following: Main index; Sub indexes; Client approved C1 hand over certificate; Contractors QCP; Related installation checklists; Calibration megger and loop test certificates; Contractors punchlist; Clients punchlist; and As-built drawings certified by the Contractors Quality Control Inspector.
These samples shall form the basis of all loop packs and all loop packs shall comply with them. A loop package shall be compiled, to the satisfaction of the COW, before any loop checks are done. The loop packs shall include all test certificates relevant to the associated loop in order as described in the index. The final loop document will only be signed off if and when all the documents are in place and the final loop check has been completed. No loop shall be considered complete if the documentation is incomplete. No loop pack shall be signed off unless all punch items have been cleared and signed off.
