MINIMUM BENDING RADIUS

Installed Cable
The minimum bending radius for training/positioning should not be less than the figure determined from the table below.

Shielded Cable & Interlocked Armor Cable
All Voltages

The Greater Of:
12 x Single Conductor Outside Diameter
7 x Multi-Conductor Assembled Outside Diameter

During Installation
Cable should not be pulled with a radius less than that determined for the installed cable. Due to limitation of side bearing pressure, it is recommended that larger radius bends be used.
