2.3.83. When laying cable lines directly in the ground, the cables must be laid in trenches and have backfilling from below, and backfilling from above with a layer of fine earth that does not contain stones, construction debris and slag.

Cables throughout their entire length must be protected from mechanical damage by coating at a voltage of 35 kV and above with reinforced concrete slabs with a thickness of at least 50 mm; at voltages below 35 kV - with slabs or ordinary clay bricks in one layer across the cable route; when digging a trench with an earthmoving mechanism with a cutter width of less than 250 mm, as well as for one cable - along the cable line route. The use of silicate, as well as clay hollow or perforated bricks is not allowed.

When laying at a depth of 1-1,2 m, cables of 20 kV and below (except for city power cables) may not be protected from mechanical damage.

Cables up to 1 kV should have such protection only in areas where mechanical damage is likely (for example, in places of frequent excavation). Asphalt pavements of streets, etc. are regarded as places where excavation is carried out in rare cases. For cable lines up to 20 kV, except for lines above 1 kV, supplying category I electrical receivers *, it is allowed in trenches with no more than two cable lines to use signal plastic tapes instead of bricks that meet the technical requirements approved by the USSR Ministry of Energy. It is not allowed to use signal tapes at the intersections of cable lines with utilities and above cable boxes at a distance of 2 m in each direction from the crossed communication or box, as well as at the approaches of lines to switchgears and substations within a radius of 5 m.

The signal tape should be laid in a trench above the cables at a distance of 250 mm from their outer covers. When one cable is located in a trench, the tape should be laid along the axis of the cable, with a larger number of cables, the edges of the tape should protrude beyond the outermost cables by at least 50 mm.

In this case, the heat pipeline at the intersection plus 2 m in each direction from the outermost cables must have such thermal insulation that the ground temperature does not rise by more than 10 ºС in relation to the highest summer temperature and by 15 ºС in relation to the lowest winter temperature.

In cases where these conditions cannot be met, one of the following measures is allowed: deepening of cables to 0,5 m instead of 0,7 m (see 2.3.84.); use of a cable insert of a larger cross section; laying cables under the heat pipeline in pipes at a distance of at least 0,5 m from it, while the pipes must be laid in such a way that the cables can be replaced without excavation (for example, inserting pipe ends into chambers).

When crossing a cable oil-filled line of a heat pipe, the distance between the cables and the overlap of the heat pipe must be at least 1 m, and in cramped conditions - at least 0,5 m. thermal insulation so that the temperature of the earth does not rise by more than 3ºС at any time of the year.

2.3.97. When cable lines cross railways and roads, cables must be laid in tunnels, blocks or pipes across the entire width of the exclusion zone at a depth of at least 1 m from the roadbed and at least 0,5 m from the bottom of drainage ditches. In the absence of an exclusion zone, the specified laying conditions must be met only at the intersection plus 2 m on both sides of the roadbed.

When cable lines cross electrified and subject to direct current electrification * railways, blocks and pipes must be insulating (see 2.3.90). The crossing point must be at least 10 m away from switches, crosses and places where suction cables are attached to the rails. The crossing of cables with the tracks of electrified rail transport should be carried out at an angle of 75-90º to the axis of the track.

The ends of the blocks and pipes must be sunk with jute braided cords coated with waterproof (crumpled) clay to a depth of at least 300 mm.

When crossing dead-end industrial roads with low traffic intensity, as well as special routes (for example, on slipways, etc.), cables, as a rule, should be laid directly in the ground.

When crossing the route of cable lines by a newly constructed non-electrified railway or a motor road, it is not required to re-lay existing cable lines. At the intersection, reserve blocks or pipes with tightly sealed ends should be laid in the event of repair of cables in the required number.

In the event of a cable line transitioning into an overhead cable, it must come out to the surface at a distance of at least 3,5 m from the bottom of the embankment or from the edge of the canvas.

* Agreed with the Ministry of Railways.

2.3.98. When cable lines cross tram tracks, cables must be laid in insulating blocks or pipes (see 2.3.90). The crossing must be carried out at a distance of at least 3 m from the switches, crosses and places where suction cables are attached to the rails.

2.3.100. When installing cable boxes on cable lines, the clear distance between the cable box body and the nearest cable must be at least 250 mm.

When laying cable lines on steep routes, the installation of cable boxes on them is not recommended. If it is necessary to install cable boxes in such sections, horizontal platforms must be made under them.

To ensure the possibility of remounting the couplings in case of their damage on the cable line, it is required to lay the cable on both sides of the couplings with a margin.

2.3.101. If there are stray currents of dangerous values ​​along the cable line route, it is necessary:

1. Change the route of the cable line in order to avoid dangerous areas.

2. If it is impossible to change the route: provide for measures to minimize the levels of stray currents; use cables with increased resistance to corrosion; to carry out active protection of cables from the effects of electrocorrosion.

When laying cables in aggressive soils and areas with the presence of stray currents of unacceptable values, cathodic polarization should be used (installation of electrical drains, protectors, cathodic protection). For any method of connecting electrical drainage devices, the norms of potential differences in the suction sections, provided for by SNiP 3.04.03-85 "Protection of building structures and structures against corrosion" of the Gosstroy of Russia, must be observed. It is not recommended to use cathodic protection with external current on cables laid in saline soils or saline water bodies.

The need to protect cable lines from corrosion should be determined by the combined data of electrical measurements and chemical analyzes of soil samples. Corrosion protection of cable lines should not create conditions dangerous for the operation of adjacent underground structures. The designed corrosion protection measures must be implemented before the new cable line is put into operation. In the presence of stray currents in the ground, it is necessary to install control points on cable lines in places and at distances that allow determining the boundaries of dangerous zones, which is necessary for the subsequent rational selection and placement of protective equipment.

To control potentials on cable lines, it is allowed to use the places where cables exit to transformer substations, distribution points, etc.

Summer fruits all year round 31.03.2019

After four years of research on the ILO Tzafon plantation in the Upper Galilee, Israeli researchers have learned how to grow summer fruits in winter using hot thermal waters and have managed to harvest the first harvest of early fruit varieties.

The new technology is based on the use of hot geothermal waters from the Shamir well, 1400 m deep. The +47 temperature water enters the greenhouse under pressure and is further used to generate energy, heat fish ponds in winter, and also to speed up fruit ripening.

Once in the greenhouse, geothermal waters create a microclimate similar to spring or summer weather. Such "deception" stimulates flowering and early ripening of fruits.

Having assessed the effectiveness of such a system, in the near future additional greenhouses will be created in the Upper Galilee for growing early-ripening fruit trees on geothermal waters.
