VERVIEW
This section provides procedures for metallic cable installation, installing protector units, and connecting alarms in
the PG-FlexPlus field cabinet. Refer to the CAD figures on the schematic diagram provided with each field cabinet to
identify the field terminations and wiring required.
The metallic outside plant (OSP) cables are spliced to the field cabinet cables in the splice chamber, located in the
side chamber.
P
RECAUTIONS
Before working on the cabinet, refer to
Only trained service personnel should perform the procedures in this manual. These procedures
WARNING
allow exposure to high electrical energy that may result in electric shock and/or injury to
untrained personnel during servicing, maintenance, and installation of this cabinet.
Digital transmission systems and associated optical test sets use semiconductor laser
CAUTION
transmitters. The lasers emit light waves, at or near infrared wavelengths, into optical fibers. This
light is at the red end of the visible spectrum and complies with 21 CFR 1040.10 and 1040.11.
Weather
For initial splicing during inclement weather conditions, it is recommended that a commercial tent (such as the Model
6508 tent from T. A. Pelsue Company; Englewood, Colorado) be used. The manufacturer should supply installation
and maintenance instructions for commercially obtained tents.
P
REPARATION
AC Power
Splicing and equipment installation in the PG-FlexPlus field cabinet only requires AC power for electric tools and
lighting. Ensure that the utility power connections have been installed conforming to the NEC in addition to state and
local codes. If the utility connections have not been installed and electric tools or lighting are required, arrange for a
temporary power source to be available at the field cabinet site.
Electric tools and temporary lights may be plugged into the PG-FlexPlus field cabinet's ground fault circuit interrupt
(GFCI) protected convenience outlets.
