Cable Conduit Installation

Select the conduit entrance hole(s) for the OSP feeder and distribution cables. Refer to
for the location of the holes. If necessary, additional conduit entrance holes may be cut using a
power drill and hole saw. Place and route the conduit into the entrance hole(s). If preferred, the
FMS may be installed without conduit. OSP cables may be routed into the FMS at any point that
is convenient. Cut the cable entrance hole to match the size of the cable.
3.5

Grounding System Installation

Install a grounding system (not provided) that meets all local electrical codes. Check local codes
for grounding system installation, use of clamps, wire size, and any other grounding
requirements. Typically, #6 AWG copper wire is used for the grounding wire. Install the
grounding system inside the FMS where it will not interfere with the conduit or cables. Connect
the grounding wire to the grounding system. Leave sufficient slack in the grounding wire to
allow it to be routed into the cabinet after the cabinet is mounted on the sleeve.

Back Fill

If installing conduit, hand shovel stone aggregate under the conduit to avoid damage from the
power tamper. Complete the back fill as follows:
1. Add stone aggregate evenly around the FMS and tamp. Fill to approximately 6 inches
(15.2 cm) from the top of the excavation.
2. Complete the back-fill with crushed rock or topsoil depending on the landscaping
requirements. The top surface of the mounting sleeve may be located from 0 to 4 inches
(10.2 cm) above the surrounding grade (see
