Inner duct <br />requirements (size and amount) will be determined by the Project Engineer. <br />5.8 Conduit Turns and Transitions <br />All conduit turns shall be made with 45-degree bends or sweeps. At no time shall 90-degree bends be <br />utilized in the outside plant arena, unless it is already existing conduit, and approved by the City. <br />5.9 Conduit Proofing <br />All conduit installed shall be proofed utilizing a mandrel and shall include the installation of a continuous, <br />jet-line pull-string. Duct proofing shall ensure new conduit is continuous, free from dirt and debris and <br />conduit is in good usable condition. <br />5.10 Duct plugs <br />All conduit ends shall be properly sealed with mechanical duct plugs. Duct plugs shall be Jack-moon type <br />or equal. <br />5.11 Trace Wire <br />A #12 AWG insulated solid trace wire shall be placed along with all conduit put in place. This trace wire <br />shall maintain continuity from end station to end station. It is acceptable to use vaults/hand holds for <br />joining the trace wire, while keeping these joints visible and out of the way of the fiber cable. <br />5.12 Marker Posts <br />Easily visible, marked, HDPE orange dome fiber-optic marker posts shall be placed above the conduit at <br />all major transitions to said conduit (turns greater than 25 degrees, etc.). Fink plated marker posts are <br />required where necessary. Marker posts will display the City of Sunny Isles logo and will be marked <br />“Underground Fiber Cable.” Fink test locations shall be installed and properly grounded at every splice <br />location. <br />5.13 Conduit Entering Hand Holes/Man Holes <br />All conduits shall be stubbed up underneath the bottom of each manhole/hand hole leaving at least 8” <br />but no more than 12” of visible conduit exposed. Conduit and inner ducts shall be capped until use. After <br />use they shall be plugged appropriately to maintain the integrity of the conduit/inner duct from dirt and <br />water.
