(Authority: CSTE’s Technical Circular No: - 30)
1.0
SCOPE:
1.1
This Specification covers the basic requirement for cable laying in an area where signal control circuits are carried
in cables. They do not include particular requirements of any type of Signaling or the particular requirement of a
Geographical area.
2.
GENERAL:
a.) The contractor shall provide and install all cable routes, where referred to as main or subsidiary.
b.) The design of the cable route material (Trunking, brick covering, cover slabs, marker posts etc) shall be
as laid down in these specifications. Any alterations should have the specific approval of the Engineer-inCharge.
c.) Where it is necessary to provide or conduct underline crossings, these will be installed by the Railways’
Civil Engineering Staff. If cable bridges are found to be necessary, under special circumstances, these also
will be provided by the Railway.
d.) Where required in Platforms, the Railway will provide route ducts and access chambers.
e.) The Railway will negotiate any way leaves for cable routes which lie outside the Railway Boundary.
f.) The Contractor shall ensure that the complete cable route is available by the stipulated date. The
Contractor shall co-operate as far as possible, in laying the signaling cables at the same time as the
Telecommunication Cables or any other type of under ground cable, in order to reduce the number of
occasions on which covers on the cable route are disturbed or to avoid digging of a separate trench for the
Telecommunication cable.
g.) Some subsidiary routes may not be definable until later stages of planning but the contractor shall
install these as may be found necessary, and additional payment for such cases shall be the subject of
negotiation.
3.
TYPE OF MAIN CABLE ROUTES:a. Signaling Cables :
Unless otherwise stated specifically, Signaling cables shall be laid as follows:i.) Signaling Cables should normally be buried direct in the ground. However, where special
conditions exist such as in vulnerable areas or in the Suburban section, other methods as listed below may
be adopted. Within the station yards between Home Signals, the cable laid underground shall be protected
by bricks laid widthwise on the cables after the cables have been covered by a layer of 150 mm. of stone
free earth.
ii.) In the case of suburban section, RCC trunking or RCC pipe shall be laid at surface level
throughout. However, if disturbance due to theft is anticipated, the trunking shall be laid with the top of the
cover 300 mm. below the ground level.
iii.) In vulnerable areas of non-suburban section or in major yards the method-(ii) above may be
adopted.
iv.) In cases like bridges, culverts, platforms, tracks & Level crossings, special arrangement as
described in relevant paras shall be provided.

ANNEXURE-P
LAYING OF SIGNALLING CABLES
(Authority : CSTE’s Technical Circular No.39)
Introduction:
Life and performance of a signaling cable depend to a large extent on the care taken in installation of the cable and its jointing.
It has been observed that adequate care is not being exercised in handling and laying the cable as a result of which such cables
have developed faults within a few months of their installation.
The following instructions are accordingly issued for laying down a uniform practice for correct procedure of laying signaling
cables which should be followed by all concerned. Whenever laying of cables is entrusted to contractors, these instructions
should be brought home to them as special conditions in the tender paper. While supervising the cable laying work to be done
by the contractor, the field inspectors and officers shall ensure compliance:
1.
Planning :
1.1.1
While planning for cabling on a route, the number of conductors required, depending upon the circuits required
should be first determined.
1.1.2
Spare conductors to a minimum of 20% of the total conductors used shall be provided in each cable between the
outermost facing point and minimum of 10% of the total conductors, in each cable between the point area and
outer-most signals.
1.1.3
Where a number of cables have been laid along a route, the circuits shall be so distributed that cables can be
disconnected for maintenance purpose with the least possible dislocation to traffic. In a double line station, it
will be preferable to use separate cables for UP and DN line.
1.1.4
After deciding the size and number of conductors in the different types of cables to be used on a route, a foot by
foot survey along the track should be done to determine best route for the cable.
1.1.5
The desired route should be shown clearly on a cable route plan, showing the actual alignment of track, giving
offsets from permanent way or permanent structures. The diagram should preferably indicate the various road
and track crossing with power cables, water and sewage mains and other points of importance.
1.1.6
A cable core distribution plan should be drawn in respect of each installation. In the case of core distribution
plan, all the cables should be numbered in ascending order from right hand side of the plan. If there be necessity
to lay any extra cable higher numbers can be used without
disturbing the existing numbering arrangement. The cables are numbered as follows: say the number is 0112(4)
the extreme left two digits 01 - indicates Cable No. 1, the next two digits 12 - indicates Total no. of the cores of
the cable ; the digit in bracket (4) - indicate the No. of spare core is available.
The tail cable is also numbered in the similar fashion with the insertion of the letter ‘T’ after the extreme left
two digits.
1.1.7
All the cables should be given distinctive numbers when the cables are initially laid. The number should be
punched on a lead sleeve and the sleeve should wrapped round the cable every 3 Mtrs. The numbering should
be in a row at one place and not put haphazardly.
1.1.8
Circuit route termination chart should be drawn in respect of each circuit starting from beginning to end. The
route of circuit should be shown in each location but concerning it. All the cores of the existing cable should be
numbered with plastic markers. These markers should generally tally with the terminal numbers. This core
numbering is essential so that under no circumstances a wrong connection can take place.
2.0
Cable Laid Underground:
2.1
Cable should be laid underground, either directly in the trench, in ducts, in cement troughs or in pipes.
2.2
Laying the Cables in Ducts:
2.2.1
In yards where a large number of cables are required to be laid in connection with Panel/RRI Installation, the
cables may be laid in RCC Ducts or Brick Channels with removable top cover. In such cases the cable shall be

laid in a serial order with one or two rows as necessary taking care to avoid crossing of the cable inside the duct
and at the entry to the cable termination room. The location of cable duct should be so decided that in case of
derailment there is no possibility of damage of the cable inside the duct by the derailed vehicles.
2.2.2
Laying of the cables inside the ducts is subject to a special check to ensure that the area is not theft prone.
2.2.3
The ducts shall have suitable covers capable of being removed for inspection.
2.2.4
Whenever the cable is laid in the duct there shall be holes on the bottom of the ducts for draining away any
water that may collect.
2.2.5
Ducts shall be kept close to the surface of the ground so that the cover can be removed easily without digging
the earth.
2.2.6
When cables are laid in rocky areas, it is desirable to protect them with split RCC Duct.
2.2.7
Where several cables of different categories have to be laid in the same trench, they shall be placed as far as
possible in the following order starting from the main track side, so that in the event of failures the maintenance
staff may easily recognise the damaged cables.
i) Derivation Cable for Axle Counter.
ii)Signaling Cable or Cables.
iii)L. T. Power Cables (less than 660 Volts) (if necessary).
2.2.8
Telecom. cable or cables belonging to Deptt. of Telecom. (DOT) or cables or Electrical Department must not be
laid in the same trench along with Signal Cables. However, laying of derivation cable for Axle Counter and
L.T. Power Cable for signaling circuit is permitted in the same trench along with signal cable. However, laying
of derivation cables along with signaling cable as a special case. The signaling cables must be separated from
Power Cables by a row of bricks between them.
3.0
Installation:
3.1
Testing of Cable before Laying:
3.1.1
Before the cable is laid, visual inspection of cable shall be made and it shall be tested for insulation and
continuity of the cores.
3.1.2
Bedding and armoring shall also be inspected to see that there has been no damage during transit or in storage.
3.1.3
Before the cable is unwound from the drum, its insulation must be measured after removing the end seals. No
cable having insulation lower than that specified in the specification shall be laid.
Paying out the Cables:
3.1.4
For paying out cables, the cable drum shall be mounted on cable wheels.
3.1.5
The drum on the wheel shall be brought to one end of the trench and the end of the cable freed and laid in the
trench.
3.1.6
The cable wheel shall then be drawn along the road or track.
3.1.7
A party of labours shall follow the drum and guide the cable from the road into the trench carefully so that the
cable is not damaged or bent unduly.
3.1.8
In cases where the wheels are not available, the drums shall be mounted on an axle at one end of the trench and
cable paid out and carried by labours.
3.1.9
In no case, shall the drum be rolled off on to the road for laying the cable and the cable dragged on the ground
for laying purposes.
3.1.10
It should be ensured that no Kink is formed while paying out the cable.
3.1.11
In no case shall the cable drum be laid flat on the ground and cable unrolled from the drum by twisting the
cable. The Procedure may cause permanent damage to the cable.

Laying:
3.2
Cables shall be laid generally as per standard instructions. Special precautions shall be taken in the station yards
etc. where a number of other utilises may be existing.
3.2.1
The cable laid parallel to the track and between home signal of a station shall be laid at a depth of 1 metre.
Cable laid across the track shall be 1 metre below the rail flanges. Cable laid beyond the home signal in a yard,
Automatic signals area or IBS or level crossing gates must be at a depth of 1-2 metre. At station yards which
are theft prone, the cable shall be laid at 1-2 metre depth.
3.2.2
The width of the cable trench shall normally be 0.5 metre. The bottom of the cable trench shall be leveled and
got rid of any sharp materials.
A layer of sieved earth or sand of 0.075 metre (3”) thickness shall be spread over the ground before laying the
cable. The cable shall be covered with a layer of sand or sieved earth of 0.075 metre (3”) thickness.
Laying of Bricks (fully burnt country bricks):
Whenever Power Cables are laid along with other cables, bricks are to be laid between the Power Cable and
other cables for separation at the rate of 5 bricks per metre, placed lengthwise.
Bricks shall be laid over the cables laid, at the rate of 10 bricks per running metre, placed breadth wise.
There shall be no gap between successive bricks.
3.2.3
Cable Crossing:
3.2.4
When a cable has to cross the track, it should be ensured that:
i) The cable crosses the track at right angles.
ii)The cable does not cross the track under points and crossing and
iii)The cable is laid in concrete/GI/CI pipes or suitable ducts while crossing the track
iv)In no case Cable should be laid without ends having been sealed to avoid water entering through bare end
and damaging the cables.
3.2.5
When cables have to be laid along culverts they shall be suitably protected and supported. These shall be taken
either (a) on the culvert through G.I. pipe not less than 2” dia or (b) taken in the bed of the culvert provided the
river or gutter remains dry most of the season. When taking cable through pipe along the bridge, it should be
suitably supported. In addition the entry and exit ends of the cable from the pipe to the diversion point of the
cable shall be laid in concrete duct this being the most vulnerable portion of the cable run.
Note :
Extreme care should be taken to ensure that outer PVC insulation and armoring of the cable are not damaged
while taking cables through pipes. Size of the pipe should be to cater to the number of cables laid.
3.2.6
When cables have to be laid along a metallic bridge, they should be placed inside a metallic trough which may
be filled as an anti- theft measure with sealing compound. The cable should be supported across the bridge in a
manner which would involve minimum vibration to the cable and which will facilitate maintenance work. In
AC electrified areas where suitable return path may not available for traction current; an additional thick
conductor must be laid along with signaling cable and should be earthed at both ends. At extra length of about 6
metre should be kept at both ends in the form of coils in case it is laid along culvert or bridge.
3.2.7
In theft-prone areas cable markers must not be provided but the route plan should clearly indicate the offsets
from reference marks.
3.2.8
While laying the cables in accordance with the above instructions, the following precautions should be adhered
to for the safety of the track:
I)
Outside the station limits, the trenches shall preferably be dug at a distance not less than 3 metre
from the centre of the track, width of the trench being outside the 3 metres distance.
ii)
At each end of the main cable, an extra loop length of not less than 5 metres shall be kept.

3.2.9
It is desirable that the excavation of the trenches is not done in long lengths and does not remain uncovered
overnight. It is preferable that trenches are dug, cable laid and refilling done on the same day.
3.2.10
The inspecting official, who supervises the excavation work, shall have the shoring materials ready in hand, so
that in banks where ashes or loose materials are encountered, shoring can be adopted.
3.2.11
Back filling of the trench should be done properly rammed and consolidated.
3.2.12
During excavation, the earth of the trenches shall be not be thrown on the ballast. The earth shall be thrown by
the side of the trenches away from the track.
3.2.13
In places where cable are to be laid close to the track, through preliminary digging upto 0.50 metre may be done
excavation to the full depth should be done only just before the laying of the cables in presence of an official
from Engineering Department, Caution order, messages may be issued wherever considered necessary.
3.2.14
The work shall be supervised at site personally by an official of the Signal & Telecommunication Department
not below the rank of Junior Engineer(Signal)/Gr.II.
3.2.15
Jointing of Cables in 25 KV AC Electrified Area:
When underground straight through joints are made, special care must be taken to maintain the electrical
continuity of the sheath and armouring. For jointing PVC cables, EPOXY cable jointing kit similar to M-Seal
Kit No. S/II, S/III & S/V should be used.
4.0
Junction Box:
Precautions to be taken for installation of junction boxes are indicated below.
5.0
a)
The installation of junction boxes for cable terminations is to be restricted strictly between the Home
Signals of a station.
b)
The junction boxes should only be installed where different conductor capacities of cables are to be put
through or for connecting main cable to the tail cables.
c)
For putting through two main cables of similar conductor capacities, only underground joints are to be
made. Underground joints must be Epoxy joint to similar to M-Seal type.
d)
Beyond the Home Signal of a station where termination of the main cables are required for connecting to
track point or signal control, location boxes only should be installed and not junction boxes.
e)
The cable leading into the junction box suitably protected by GI pipes.
f)
The bolt heads of the junction box covers shall be invariably riveted.
Cables leading to Signal Post:
Cables leading to the signal posts should be taken through the post if the signal post is tubular. In case of any
other type of signal posts such as lattice type or joint type, cables should be taken through pipes.
6.0
Cables leading to Cabin/Station Building/Relay Room/Goomties:
6.1
In case of cables leading to Cabins/Station Building/Relay Rooms/Goomties the floors of which are
considerably higher, they should be taken through GI pipes by giving off sets. A number of cables should not be
tightly filled in one pipe. Extreme care should be taken that outer PVC insulation or armor of the cable is not
damaged while these are taken through GI pipes.
6.2
In the Cabin/Relay Room/Goomties/Location Hut the entry point of cable from the outdoor should be protected
by suitably massonary and plaster to guard against physical damage as well as entry of water and insects.
The area enclosing the base of the cable should be filled up with layer of sand. In addition a thin layer of
cement plaster with good top finish should be provided. The cement plaster layer should be such that in case of
necessity, the same can be easily broken for repair of cables or for laying additional cables.
This arrangement is to be adopted in respect of both existing and future installation.

7.1
Cable routes should be checked by walking along the route to ensure that there is no feasibility of cable
exposure on account of any excavation work over the cable route or due to soil erosion. If necessary, earth work
to be done over the cable route to ensure that there is no possibility of accumulation of rain water over the cable
route due to the formation of drain on account of sinkage of soil. The cable route should be checked at least
once in a month.
The cable route should also be kept free from jungle growth, etc., so that in case of necessity, excavation work
can be undertaken by S&T staff without difficulty.
7.2
Should an existing cable be exposed due to making of a drain, the same should be protected by two channel of
irons of adequate length to cover the exposed length. The channel irons should be firmly secured with clamps
and riveted with bolts. The inter distance between two clamps should not exceed one metre. The end of the
channels should be concreted.
7.3
Should there be heavy soil erosion over a portion of cable route and it is not possible to cover the same with
earth, the effected portion of the cable route should be concreted taking precaution that the cable is not damaged
on account of concreting.
7.4

1.1
Wiring of signaling circuits shall be in accordance with approval circuit diagrams.
1.2
Alterations to existing circuits may be resorted to at site only in emergent cases under direct supervision of
an officer. In such cases the alteration should be immediately advised to Headquarters Officers for
correction and issue of approval wiring diagram.
1.3
Whenever alterations are being carried out in an existing installation, the drawing office (Hd. Qrs.) shall
obtain details of actual arrangement at site, based on up-to-date existing circuit diagram or actual check or
both, to decide alterations to old and obsolete circuit for approval and issue.
1.4
“As made” circuit diagram must be submitted by divisions to Hd. Qrts. on Completion of alterations to
wiring and the final diagram should be true the wiring at site. This should be signed by the SI carrying out
the works and the officer opening the works.
Principles of wiring:
2.1
Wiring between any two points shall be done in one length and no joints shall be made in any wire run.
2.2
